Board 8 > I MAY have made this topic before...but should I play TotA before ToV?

(+) Yeah! (+)

or should I just skip to ToV? ...and sell TotA >_>

its the PS2 TotA btw

so like, that'll give me some incentive to eventually get the 3DS version if I ever get the 3DS in the future (not the near future)

Outta curiosity, have you played Tales of Symphonia (gamecube)? The best by farrrrr.

Abyss and Vesperia are waaay better than Symphonia. I can see preferring the plot/characters but the battle systems are much more improved.

It's still worth playing Abyss and Vesperia. It's not like one outclasses the other. At least, the changes in the battle system from TotA->ToV aren't as dramatic as the ones from ToS -> TotA.

EDIT: And by which I mean it's not going to be difficult going from one to the other; I know some people who played TotA first and then ToS, and disliked the battle system a lot.

You have no time to ponder such questions, as Link has just grabbed a Smash Ball.

While I do prefer it for the plot and characters, even just the lack of loadtimes and better graphics make Symphonia's gameplay also better than TotA.

Ha, well hey fair enough but what makes you think you'll like these other two games? They're very similar most many ways.

I remember hearing that these games are "ToS done right"

I will still undoubtedly be annoyed cause I'm way too used to the 2D planes

hell, I loved ToL more than ToS

Sweet I though Phantasia was way better than Symphonia too.

Should get around to playing my Legendia copy.

TotA is awesome, play it now.

Also ToS is such trash and screw me for buying it on my Birthday.

but what about the 3DS version

http://29.media.tumblr.com/zbT6A1rVVpd1ctqyD1A6EJQ4o1_400.gif

3DS version is a straight port with awful 3D effects (worst I've seen on the 3DS).

If you have the PS2 version then just play that.

Uh, I think the 3d is pretty solid.

But yeah play TotA <_<.

As a Tales of Symphonia fangirl, my ranking so far is Vesperia>Abyss>Symphonia. But Abyss is very good and you should play it. (In case you didn't realize I am an even bigger Tales of Vesperia fangirl!)

The only thing that's 3D is the text bubbles, and it looks terrible.

From what I've played, it is. Unless it gets better later on or something.
