Marvelous and XSeed keep bringing more games to Xbox. My hope for Rune Factory 5 is growing.
WEll yeah but I mean from a gameplay perspective. The Mainline story doesn’t require any use of Gambits outside of the basic ones and The game gatekeeps the best gambits for you until the very end of the game. The game just takes a huge leap gameplay wise. Would have been better if they didn’t gatekeep it and made more challenging story bosses but I guess they felt people wouldn’t be able to beat it so easily.
Also Vanilla FF12 is a lot different compared to Zodiac. It adds a ton of cool QoL changes.
I’m interested. Fantastic that its coming to Xbox.

Not a JRPG, but their music games is skipping Xbox too.
Obligatory fuck Square Enix
Happy with this, even if it looks to be a fairly barebones port of the PS2/PS3 release.
Will buy and encourage everyone else to buy. Great game and can organically lead to a port for Tales of the Abyss which is top tier Tales of.

A lot of games seems to be aiming at PS4 still. I guess it is one of the reasons why they skip Xbox - probably even PS5 versions are not native.
I will buy it for third time. Still have the game on GameCube and PS3.
IMO it’s the best Tales game, but I didn’t like the ending.
It’s top three for me, depending on the day maybe even top one.
Symphonia was actually my first full Tales of game when I bought it (at release) on Gamecube. Had played Phantasia before that but only a fan translation.
Looking back, Bamco has really come a long way with the series. Now guaranteed western releases, worldwide release dates, and day one on Xbox. This is how a company grows a brand/IP. What SE are doing is only pissing away any good will they had left.

Was expected. I really don’t know what to expect for TGS. Probably stuff we already know + new content for Flight Sim and Grounded.
I have this on 3ds. But bizarre we got that kingdom hearts melody game but not this.

Didn’t much like Ryza 1 or 2 and the artwork here is just obtuse - but still a bit disappointing that Gust continues to hold out. Now if they announced a new Ar Tonelico on everything but Xbox…oof, that’d sting.
Their loss
Symphonia was my first Tales as well. That’s why I will buy it for the third time.
