Tales games are on sale today (edit: midweek sale):



Is Symphonia worth it? I know it has some issues, looks like a mod fixes most of them, but is the game good? The only Tales games I've played are Phantasia (SFC) and a few hours of Vesperia.

GMG just sent me another 27% off code for PUBG. Signing up for their newsletter is definitely the way to go if you're interested in it at all.

I tried Symphonia late (meaning I did not play it back in the GC days) and I found it to be a shitty Vesperia.
It didn't age well either.

They used to send me shit, and I've double checked I'm still signed up for their emails. Not sure why they don't send me anything anymore. The last one I got was the June 20th PUBG 27% off code.

I got the game already at least.

I enjoyed it, but I also haven't played it since like what, 2004? 2005? I personally would probably enjoy playing through it again, but idk how much of that is like reading an old favorite book from your childhood. For what it's worth, Phantasia is one of my favorites too. Symphonia is a loose prequel to that.

I played it last year and enjoyed it a lot, it has some tedious parts that require a lot of backtracking but apart from that it's very good.

I'm into retrogaming, so I don't mind outdated graphics and mechanics. The things I'm looking for in a game like this are 1) a fun and interesting world to explore and 2) characters/plot that put a smile on my face. Will I find it in Symphonia?

I feel like they could have tried harder to get more people to pitch in at the BTA level...those additions aren't going to convince anyone undecided.

Those are horrible additions to the arguably "eh" bundle for Deep Silver.

Like "I didn't even know they made that" additions.

I didn't got last time ... but the only think interesting me is ink ... what should I do ?
Click to expand...

Personally, I didn't really like Ink all that much. I remember playing it for about an hour and getting kind of annoyed with it and uninstalling. From what I remember, there was something about the way your "character" controlled that just felt pretty bad. I did like the general idea, though.

Nope it has aged terribly, you might as well play newer Tales games.
