Plenty of third party sellers for $20 online, but damn if I wouldn't rather have it digitally. Also a pretty big deterrent against people buying it this late :/
Should have just used that "keep" option from Gamefly. --- "I think Cuphead should be higher." - Abby from Brooklyn ... Copied to Clipboard!

I've seen it regularly on sale for like $25 over the past few months on Amazon & other retailers. I'm pretty sure PSN had a Tales sale only a few weeks ago where it was like $35.

I've seen those before, but didn't have the itch to replay at the time. Still, shouldn't the base price have dropped by now? Or is this Namco thing?

It was $20 at Best Buy a week ago. All the stores near my house were sold out, though.

Yeah physical copies are cheap, that's kind of my point. Digital prices should at least be ALMOST that. Just ordered off of Amazon.

The PSN sale just ended this morning whenever PSN updated, usually around 7-8AM PST. It was $24. Bad timing.

Mainly though I just wanna know how the character art looks. There's always the worry that they go the Star Ocean route and make everything hideous.
Thankfully I feel like the chance of that here are low. --- "I think Cuphead should be higher." - Abby from Brooklyn ... Copied to Clipboard!

If you're open to getting it on PC, the game's had some pretty huge discounts there. Like, below $20 if I'm recalling correctly.

Compare Symphonia/Graces/Vesperia with all the post-Xillia games full of actually featureless copy-paste caves for most of their dungeons. --- Let the voice of love take you higher, With this gathering power, go beyond even time! ...

Berseria was a lower budget game than the last one by a good margin. New director, prequel to a poorly recieved game, not a lot of faith. Honestly amazing that it's the best Tales game since Vesperia by a large margin. --- "I think Cuphead should be higher." - Abby from Brooklyn ... Copied to Clipboard!

So they're basically Mass Effect 1? I've only played Symphonia and Abyss myself, so I'm not sure how the series evolved from there. Vesperia was killer but it was a big slump after that. Some games had specific good things about them, but the full packages weren't all there. Berseria isn't perfect but it's a big return to form, worst case scenario it might be the 3rd best in the series, maybe #1 depending on how I feel that day. Level design probably keeps it at #3 more often than not, though. --- "I think Cuphead should be higher." - Abby from Brooklyn ... Copied to Clipboard!

Symphonia tried to be interesting, and I did like some areas (Volt's dungeon in particular is cool) but I think I prefer bland cut-and-paste dungeons to whatever Ymir Forest was.
LeonhartFour posted... I've only played Symphonia and Abyss myself, so I'm not sure how the series evolved from there It didn't. Berseria's map and dungeon design is what holds the game back from being one of my all-time favorites. It's still up there but it could've been even better.

EDIT: The battle system has changed a lot though, and generally for the better. This is mostly why I want to play it again. The last few.months of my life have been JRPGs with fucking trash battle systems that I hate (Star Ocean 6, FFXV) so I'm a little desperate. Berseria's battle system is the only RPG I'm recent memory that makes me want to fight battles just for entertainment. --- "I think Cuphead should be higher." - Abby from Brooklyn ...

I didn't have a problem with the final dungeon, but I also ended up slapping it on the easiest difficulty so I could avoid the battles, so it didn't take me too long.
I wish the series would just go back to a world map. These large, open fields are killing the franchise for me. Berseria has an incredible story, but without that, it'd be one of the weakest games in the series. --- http://i.imgur.com/l7xxLh1.jpg PSN/Steam - RoboQuote ; NNID - TazzyMan ... Copied to Clipboard!
