I would have so pissed if I found that out cause I open everything XD
The Tales series is a series of video games that is sorta akin to the Final Fantasy series. As it plays usually the fantasy role and usually each game is a different story instead of legit actual sequels unless said otherwise.
Tales of Symphonia was one of the most popular as it actually had a mild branching path that led to two different endings that depended how you talked to your party members. [FFFFFUUUUCK that AI though]
Tales of Vesparia was personally one of my favorites. It even has a anime short.
Tales of Xillia was also fun, haven't played the sequel to that yet though.
The best thing I always enjoyed that every game is coop. As a gaming household, coop games often are held high and the Tales series is coop and has a enjoyable story usually.
The most recent one Tales of zestiria is kinda eh because it's travel system is SUPER annoying, but still sorta enjoyable. I know theres a lot more but I haven't played all of them.
Oh, it gets even worse, if you miss it, you can still get the weapon, but it is in a chest that has a 20% chance of being there, and a 10% chance of containing the Zodiac Spear (the weapon). Do that math, and figure your chance of getting it.
Where else XII went kinda wrong, was that loot drops are RNG based, and some of the best weapons, armor and rare materials can only be found by killing one rare monster over...and over...and over... and over... Until you get lucky and it drops. Those mosters ALSO usualy apear on a RNG based chance, and some of them are tucked deep inside difficult and or lengthy dungeons. The best heavy armor (helm and body, separate monsters) the best ninja sword, the best dagger, the best pole...ugh. To this day, I still have not managed to get them.
Ah, I have heard of those. Never played one myself, though. What platform do you play them on?
