Three times now I have seen Tales of the Abyss mentioned.

I was just talking about that game earlier. I have never been big on the Tales series but I was actually enjoying that one particular game a lot until I got side tracked.

 

 You should get back to playing it then, IMO Tales of the Abyssw as the best Tales of game =/

 

Last I remember my main character killed someone for the first time and was all weirded out about the whole thing.

I will probably start again from the beginning when I get to it, but I think I need to finish The Last Remnant and then Star Ocean 4 before I make my way back to it.

I will happen though, I don't leave many JRPGs unfinished.

 

@g-value

See? This is how much I do not play Tales. I have no idea who this Yuri guy is. I know he is in Vesperia but from what you say it sounds like he is from some other Tales game.

Oh well, I bet I can beat you in SaGa Frontier trivia.

Ironically I think those ads ended up killing the game, but yes, I agree they were pretty awesome for what they were.

 

I find it so awesome that you knew exactly what I was talking about.

The barf and garbage ones were truly disgusting. While they may have ended up killing the game, I can say that they at least had 1 person end up wanting to see what it was all about.

That 1 person being me of course.

 

I don't care how the sales ended up though, all I know is that such an awesome ad is forever placed in my memory.

Yuri is from ToV and is one of the best main characters I have ever seen in an rpg. He has one of the best backstories i have ever seen in a character and he is a incredible swordsmen. Fei Fong Wong still holds the title of "Character With The Best Back Story" and is the second best fighter i've seen in an rpg right after Citen.

That deep of a backstory huh?

I guess I should pick up ToV sooner rather than later then, before my local shop runs out of copies.

You should pick it up, though you should beat Tales of the Abyss before you play Tales of Vesperia.

@ Euphoria14

Make sure you get it. Here is just a small sample of Yuri's awesomeness in combat

If and when I pick it up I will of course finish up my other Tales games first. Those would be Symphonia, Abyss and Eternia.
