Wonder if they'll release a new Tales of Card Evolve artbook then.
Wouldn't mind seeing all that artwork in one place if the game's going down, lol

It's an online card game, but it's ending next month.
Don't be afraid of tumblr. There are many, many good things on there.
Say that to the NSFW-ish images that popped up. lol
I know there are some good things there. 
But anyway, where can I play this?

No idea. In Japan, I guess?Say that to the NSFW-ish images that popped up. lolI know there are some good things there.

I don't know much about it. I imagine it's one of those F2P things. All I know is that there is some really sweet artwork that goes along with it.
Oh, bummer. I thought it was like an MMO card game or something. Oh well. Thanks anyway.

Damn, UPS says my CE from Amazon weights just under 5lb.
I dunno, I wouldn't mind if it was ten or fifteen hours longer. There are RPGs that are just way too long, sure, but I don't think any of the Tales games have suffered from it.
Then again, it's back to school next week and I'm a tutor this year etc etc, I'm probably not gonna have as much time to play as I've had in the last couple of years

Meh, amazon was dun goofing so I cancelled it. I wanna get this day one, I'm going to have to pay a little more but whatever. At least I can play it tomorrow.
Man, this game seems to have the same dark overlay thing Xilla 1 uses. Using the in built screenshot feature this game and Graces F has it should be obvious on the "identical" logos; (So no capture card shenanigans)
This is on purpose right? I'm not the only one who gets this? I don't like it at all.

Graces F:

The box is HUGE as well.

Nah, I get it too. Xillia was darker than the other games. Symphonia Chronicles and Graces f look fine.
My copy didn't have anything special
If you have save files of the previous Tales of games you get a Sophie, Yuri, Milla and Jude attachments for your characters though.
It doesn't, but Xillia/Graces savedata will get you some attachments, and any costume DLC you bought for Xillia will be available in this game as well.
I was playing Xillia this weekend and I felt a bit ashamed at how tempted I was to buy the costumes, especially considering I don't even like changing the default costumes.
I ended up buying the cameo ones mostly for nostalgia and having other games' music tracks in battle. At least the games have some flexibility in alternate colors or 'hat' hair styles that don't need to be purchased. You can also unlock the Xillia 1 costumes by doing the character quests.
Are you saying you get new sidequest and character episode scenes on NG+?
Is there a list of perfect choices?
that's good news. I don't really like Leia's outfit here.
question for the importers, how's the difficulty of the japanase used in the game(s)? Not about this game in particular but more about recent tales of games and what should I expect if I decide to import ToZ.
I crai everytiem
I knew that someone was going to link that shit again.

Huh?
I'd say on a scale of Snowball's Chance in Hell to 0% it'd be around 0%.

Okay! Thanks!!

Thanks for the answer, though really wish this wasn't forced.

Still legitimately upset that there's no "Day One Edition" or anything like that similar to ToX1. I like to keep my games organized by title and case size, so having the box ToX1 came in next to a regular ToX2 case irks me just a tiny bit.
If any EU people decide they want to part with any of their steelbooks, let me know! I would definitely be interested in buying one to put the game in. That, at least would look somewhat better.

So I want to give the Xillia games a shot but I'm a bit hesitant because I've been burned by Tales games before. I loved Vesperia but I didn't like Abyss.
I think the reason why I enjoy Vesperia so much is because I really love the cast in that game; they're good, honorable, quirky people while the characters in Abyss, with the exception of the main female, left me somewhat...cold
So how is the cast in Xillia? Is the voice acting good? Is Johnny Yong Bosch in it?

Xillia cast is one of my favorites but YMMV. Milla and Elize have OK voice acting, the rest are great though.
I hated Abyss too, dont worry, there's no Luke like shits in this, most of the cast is great, Elize/Teepo is a little annoying but the rest are good and interesting/likeable.
I was in your same position last year, was constantly getting burned by Tales games and was ready to give up on the series before some people talked me into buying Xillia and I loved it, give it a try
Follow this guide for subevents. They really flesh out the characters.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Wheeeee my copy of Xillia 2 CE shipped from Gamestop. Should be here on Wednesday. Can't play till Thursday, but whatever. I'm sure it'll still be awesome by then.

I'm chapter 9 already
really cool that you get Gaius, the only character which I'm still missing is Muzée, the sound quality of the game has improved greatly, btw is the VA for Milla a different one? Or does she just sound different because of the quality of the sound recording? The game has 15 chapters right? Liking the game so far, the only tedious thing is, that most places are visited twice because of the whole time thing.

damn hahah went for the CE, huh?
my standard from FS shipped earlier. 55 bucks after taxes... oh well, still better than 78 dollars.

hot, steaming, as melted butter slips into the cracks, drizzled with sticky sweet syrup OH GOD
Argh part 2 just reminded me that Ivar existed. Such an absolutely worthless annoying character.
This simping idiot only had ONE job! Hold on to the damn key and don't be stupid
I did. :/
I'm a sucker for exclusive DLC [especially Tales of-themed] and the inclusion of the artbook, steelbook, and Rolo plush pushed me over the edge. Also the figure, while maybe not the best of quality compared to the other figures I own, will look nice standing alongside Milla from the first game. The pocket watch looks neat, although it likely won't get any use and just remain in its box as a collector's item.
