Forums - Microsoft - Tales of Vesperia Was Outstanding

Tales of Vesperia is one of the best games i have played in years.The story, characters, combat system and art style were outstanding!!And the main character Yuri is soooooo badass he is one of the best main protagonist i have ever played.From his character design to his fighting style he bleed awesomeness.

When the hell is this coming to EU/AUS? I want it, I WANT IT !!!



Playing: Borderlands(great co-op,HUGE amount of content),Too Human(better late than never lol),Saints Row 3(Penetrator ftw),Minecraft 360,Harry Potter Lego. 

Patiently waiting for:  Tomb Raider, Borderlands 2

I love this game to death.

I still wish Flynn was the main instead of Yuri.



 

 

 

I haven't played all the way through, but so far the game is anoying be endlessly. I dislike the combat and characters so far, but maybe Flynn will turn things around. I am relatively certain I am not very far in the game so it could pick-up hopefully. It has a lot of work to do if it will impress me though.

Tales of Vesperia and Star Ocean 4 are the only games I wish that are on PS3. Maybe Mass Effect also.

*sigh*



Battlefield Bad Company 2 > Modern Warfare 2

Yuri's complete lack of emotion really ruined any chance of character development for the villains and himself. That's why Flynn would have been so much better as the lead character. He's just a better character for a story to be about.



 

 

 

It's my third favorite game this generation.

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Me too. On oficial forum, there some hints, that it should be in second half of the year. But I don´t know, if it´s true, or not.

 



Not sure about Yuri being unemotional. . . his emotions seem like his primary motivator throughout the game, don't they? He just doesn't wear them on his sleeve as much as the characters around him, who are mostly less mature... I like how Yuri leads by inspiring confidence in his comrades, but doesn't want to actually lead and so gives the job to others he feels are more pure and better suited for the job.

I agree that Vesperia is great game. It does an incredible job of creating a classic-feeling RPG world but at the same time making the world and the characters feel surprising and fresh (despite character designs which could have felt really cliched with different writing/voice acting). It's my favorite RPG this generation, though I haven't bought or played Valkyria Chronicles yet (high hopes for that one). It was a major bonus for me that the multiplayer was improved from the past Tales games (the camera and collision detection were finally fixed in combat) and I got to play through the whole thing with my girlfriend.
