Support NeoGAF

[nikos]

No mention of Switch 2.
99% chance of no ultrawide support on PC.
1080p trailer for a remaster.
Barely anything shown even though the game is 14 years old.
Typical Bandai Namco.

Hudo no... You're one of the best posters... Now I lowkey gotta kill you.

Zestiria is really a showcase for the power the PS4.

I can't explain why I like Zestiria. I know it's shit. It has a lot of flaws. But there's something about this game that I like.

Don't forget that both Zesteria and Berseria are also on PS3.

Looks good. 10.31

How much is it going to cost though...

$40 msrp

Zero load times for battles for zero textures in the overworld. It really does need a graphical rehaul and most of its sins will be forgiven.

Kind of weird that they didn't make this a Xillia 1/2 collection.

they seem to be pretending the PS3 era sequels don't exist we never did get a remaster or even rerelease of ToS: DotNW, hopefully we get Xillia 2 but I'm not gonna get my hopes up after that

$40 msrp

I genuinely expected $50 or higher, that's a fair price.

 

[Mayar]

A few questions...
1) For what?
2) I tried to remember what was so terrible in the game that it had to be cut out (I played it a long time ago), but I couldn't...

P.S. - discussion on reddit

For Zestria. I liked the world/story enough but probably the most brain dead battle system ever. I didn't do anything during battles but spam the same move over and over after fusion.

For QoL stuff in Xillia. Hell yea subtitles during battles. And all costume dlc is nice since I never brought those so it be cool to dress everyone up silly.

‘Tales Of Xillia Remastered’ Censors Original Game’s Content “To Better Reflect Present-Day Standards”

Bandai Namco announce Tales of Xillia Remastered will change "some expressions" to be "in consideration of ethics." We may already know what was censored.

Lower CERO rating by cutting out any implication of underage smoking. Probably gonna censor some outfits too.

Looks like another skip. And I guess Tales series is dead now if they are heading towards censorship and "modernizing" the game.

 

[Angry_Megalodon]

Fuck western localizers and the spineless Japanese who sing along. I hope this bombs.

 

[JayK47]

I think Xillia 1 and 2 are probably my favorite of the series. If they do a remaster, they need to do both.

 

[Celcius]

I'm surprised there's no steam page yet

 

[Durin]

Eh, I'm not sure this is enough for me to buy this outside of when it hits bargain bin price.

This game already can run at 4k 60fps on RPCS3 for me (you can even get 21:9 support with patches), so all I'm seeing added that I actually care about is higher than 60fps.

The rest are minor features that aren't a big deal, and then they're censoring stuff. I'd have maybe put up with it if they bothered to improve the actual game assets/textures.

Steam page is up

Good price, I'm going to get it for sure.

Graces f was a solid port/remaster but this one seems to be developed by a different dev team. I hope it turns out well too.

 

[SkylineRKR]

I think its one of the best.

Xillia wasn't too bloated, and fast travel is opened like straight away. There are 2 types of Tales games, ones with long and tedious dungeons (eg Destiny, Graces), and ones with very short dungeons like this one. I tend to enjoy the games with shorter dungeons more, though I love Destiny for being my first Tales games. Xillia is quite fast paced with shorter dungeons etc, I think you can beat it at around 25 hours.

A bit light on content, and Maxwell's campaign doesn't make sense if you start with it but solid combat system and I generally had a good time on PS3.
