it kinda felt like Ratchet went from snarky teenager to slightly less snarky grownup

Oh shit it's the Seelkadoom game

I played the trilogy out of order. 1 then 3. When I finally got my hands on going commando years later I was extremely impressed. The game felt like a direct improvement that made what the first game so great.

Started it back in January and didn't progress past first 3 hours because of my chronic FOMO. Sounds like I'll have to force myself to play it without a single peek into any guides

This is my favorite game 🎮 ❤

I finished this back when it released, and a few years later I actually don't remember a single thing about the story. Says a lot about the game lol

The way the story went down the drain after the 5th Lord was shocking… it was initially funny in a “so bad it’s good” way with the ~lets go find that spaceship subplot (when they first mentioned a space ship I thought… no way this has to be a joke and continued due to morbid curiosity but… they were not joking about going to space LOL) but the space adventure gets old fast and takes itself way too seriously. Lenegis was horrendous to play but IMO the space station after that was even worse, I think so many people just gave up or just checked out during Lenegis they don’t realize how horrendous the Hevrekt-35 story time is lol. - The game had minimal humor and most of its attempts at it were stilted and awkward, the party was not cohesive as a group IMO. My personal wish would be to make Law and Rinwell older so the banter could be between the personalities of the characters rather than every convo coming down to just two kids squabbling and the “older members” telling them to calm down. The only time I laughed my ass of was when [spoilers] Vholran came crashing into the final boss fight on a flaming broken space ship….. what a missed opportunity to make him a goofy villain who thinks he is scary but is anything but… everything about his character is goofy goober material but the game is dead serious about making him seem threatening. - I agree Shionne and Alphen hogged too much of the screen time. I feel like defenders of this game are fans of both of those characters and their love story. If you’re a fan of them, congratulations, this game will be bearable. If you’re not a fan of them well…. Good luck lol the rest of the characters suffer from too little space to grow. There was so much potential for them that wasn’t explored. Some reviews have said this game is too long but I disagree, for a Tales game I found it too short but I think that was more of a development issue than anything else. The game only feels long due to terrible exposition dumps and the story not being developed properly or satisfying to uncover. If this were a regular Tales game, each character would have their own little arc... the game felt like half of a Tales game to me. - The combat system is fun at the beginning as you learn new artes. But once you learn all the artes it does not evolve and late game becomes spamming the same 3 things: tres ventos, shooting star, and alphen’s burst artes on enemies who feel like rock walls to fight. No strategy whatsoever, I could determine if I would win or lose a fight based on how many Orange Gels and Life Bottles were in my inventory. - It seems like the AI for party members in combat was worse than usual. Also it seems like only 3 characters are really good in your party at one time and some characters must be controlled manually or they are useless. Half the party members have terrible AI, including the healers who leave party members hanging with less than half HP (yes I checked my strategies). I ended up having to control all 4 party members including the healer during fights, which I never do and also had no interest in doing. - Some of of the moral resolutions in this game are…. just plain bad. Law stopping Rinwell from taking her revenge on Almedreia is obviously everyone’s favourite punching bag but also the notion that the oppressive, power hungry, slave-driving Renans were “just everyday people with deranged fans living on Lenegis so we have to see them as multidimensional” was pure sh*t considering they were the most basic one dimensional “evul” villains during their time on screen. - In Tales of Symphonia, Colette accepts her fate as a sacrifice for the greater good and this adds to her character. In this game, Alphen makes the decision for Shionne to not be sacrificed, not saying I wanted her to be sacrificed but I saw that moment as an opportunity for a genuine moment of strength for her character but its delegated to Alphen so he can make his “victory and justice” speech which I’m sorry I liked him at the beginning but for him to go from lowest slave to the world’s greatest freedom fighter and then by the end of the game also the most morally righteous man in the universe was laughable and eyerolling. The group finds out they are only tiny pawns in the whole scheme of Lenegis, Renans, the Great Spirit… yet apparently this group is the only one capable of saving the universe? I’m sorry but I cannot see Law or even Alphen as great heroes… it’s just my opinion sorry!!! Lol. They slash the boss to pieces for 40 mins to save the universe but they seem as clueless as ever when it comes to solving oppression and racism once and for all. I groaned when Alphen gave his “you are the evul because of no friends” rant during the Vholran fight… I should’ve stopped listening to the dialogue and story well before this point lol.

Did anyone ever thought this was a bad game? It was FIRE.

The whole post PS2 era of R&C is terrible was better as a fun goof not serious, instead of trying to tell love stories between a furry sentient creature and an actual human woman god it went south 😂 with stuff like that unneeded angst etc, and the gameplay didn't evolve much either, should of remember it platforming and been half shooting fun weapons they had that down for years but bring back the platforming half in a big way prince of persia style with and mix of the gadgets like swing shots and Heli back etc, kinda like Prince Of Persia and an obscure game called last tinker city of colors , if the platforming and world design had influences from these whilst remembering it's own platforming mechanics would be a pretty sick game imo.

Im glad this was made. Games like this won't be made again and like Romero movies, they dont gotta be good just to be classics. Sorry you hated it. I havent played it though but it looks SUPER FUN!

Forgot the sound track with its classic hits

The time puzzles 6:06 are not challenging? You cannot be serious? They are so ridiculously hard I rage quit this game and vowed to never play this POS game ever again....Those pathetic time puzzles absolutely ruined what could have been a great game

I beat both the games, size matters and secret agent clank on PSP and PS2 also, i like both

iam searching ninja gaiden collection for pc and this keeps popping up instead think ill play the bugger

This game either style, setting, saga etc, was so much similar to Devil May Cry. I don't understand this game why not as popular as DMC which have sequel installment...

My opinion is the story is fine, it doesn't do enough to set up its twist. But it does what Symphonia was trying to do story wise much better. The biggest writing problems I had were they were a bit heavy handed in the wind region with Rinwell's characterization. And water region definitely showed cracks of the limitations of covid development. Combat wise? Huge problems. The boss fights are atrocious, anything considered a boss can't be launched and not all bosses are large. So a system designed around ground to air back to ground combat falls apart immediately in the fights you're supposed to use them in. Characters like Dohalim and Law feel tragic in the late game fights if you want to utilize their aerial prowess. And not using Alphen late game is just painful. The most tragic part about it is I'm sure they did this for balance reasons, but then in that case just don't make launching central to your game... Polish wise it's a little sloppy there were a lot of grammar mistakes on release, but again, covid development. I consider the game a solid 7/10 which is alright, but I have lost faith in the Tales series I think its interesting you find the series innovative because I don't think the series has done anything innovative in quite a long time. Tales has always felt like the Dragon Quest of Action RPGs because the core of every game is largely the same.

I loved this game the combat was amazing story I mean it alright serviceable the characters I really enjoyed their interactions together. I don’t know why this game gets so much hate.

Made it 35 hours and then gave up. Combat was way too spongey

Playing ToD now, and I'm really in shock how good this game is and looks. One complain that I have is how fucking hard it is. Checkpoints are joke, half of weapons are too weak, and monsters are basically sponges for ammunition. This is my second time playing, before I dropped after that grinding boots boss. Although, I think this is top 5 Ratchet games, no period. Great video bro

i have the sly trilogy in my ps3 collection. i LOVE these series and hope for a fifth installment. Also great video and review for the 1st Sly!

.hack is a great underrated series!

Of the 5 tales games I’ve played, arise is ranked 4th. I would go 1. Symphonia 2. Berseria 3. Vesperia 4. Arise 5. Zestiria.

Sieg Wahrheit Chaos Legion joins in Act 1 haos Contestir Volume 1. Bionicle story saga.

The chosen one crap ruined the series for me.

My two issues with this game Too many QTEs and his Mask. A ninja wears a face mask over his mouth, a superhero wears a eye mask. Ninja Gaiden is the best ninja game series but this had some cool idead. I loved his scabbard and how it opened up to carry up to 3 swords!

I could care less what those people that reviewed the game say as long as thereis no 4 foot tall 4 foot wide, fat, ugly females in it. I didn’t play the original, but I bought this one and I love it.

No offense but given a lot of the complaints you have with the game I feel like you beating the game in 40 hours is kind of telling of you skipping a lot of content and that probably is why you feel the way you do

So I know that a lot of people will complain about the second act of this game but I actually really liked it and it felt like it was decently built up. Going through the game I had a lot of questions about a lot of stuff that just didn't seem to feel right and when the characters themselves started to ask questions it felt really good. Usually a gane would lampshade or outright ignore what feels like plot holes but the characters themselves start to realize that somethings up once they get some time to slow down. It felt like the game WANTS you to question things and not take things at face value so when the characters start to question things it makes you realize you were onto something.

My biggest complaint with this game will always be that the economy is so incredibly stingy with no good way to make money and the bosses just being giant HP sponges with too much super armor. The former problem is especially bad because it gets so much better if you purchase the DLC artifacts that cut the cost of everything and make things like cooking and item crafting only take one of each ingredient to make. It reeks of executive meddling to sell DLC

i played bayo 1 like 4 years ago and i loved it, because it was the first game that i played so bad that the game only gave me stone trophies, and the second run i did to get better scores, was the important thing that make me fell in love with this game, then i got pure platinum in all difficulties with all characters lol

Lollipop Chainsaw was fun and not to be taken seriously . Anyone can pick it up and beat it. It has that saints row kind of wackiness. Just have fun and dont over analysis it .

Panty shots. that's the reason. The game itself was kinda shit

Im not a fan of anime games with super flashy combos and punchbag enemies that dies from my 10k hundred blade of agony stabs

review with a lot of yapping smh

There are 4 main things that keep this game lower than the first or UYA for me. - The turret boss has way too much health, and the fight becomes boring after 5 minutes. - While I like the weapon upgrade system it has a major flaw in that you are punished for either using your wrench or a fully upgraded weapon to kill things as the exp is wasted. The exp could have been like a secondary currency that is built up when you kill things and then spent on whatever you wanted between weapons, health and the wrench. - The protopet final boss is the most disappointing of all the last bosses in the series as it dies so fast the mechanics don't matter, if it had the same health as the turret boss with proper phase pacing it would be the best final boss. - The bouncer takes on the role of the RYNO in the first game of just solving most combat situations and it is too easy to get for being that powerful. This game is still fun and the best sequel in the series but I enjoy the first game for its differences and UYA for all the things that it fixed based on this game.

So size matters isn’t cannon right?

I look at it as simply getting the game again now if they can bring back Rumble Roses sadly that's not gonna happen

Tarra Strong is basically a legend with her voice acting work

It's a good game, but I think it is my least favorite of the 9 tales games I've played. Even Zestiria I think I've enjoyed more.

Completely agree with this synopsis. The game had all of the right pieces to be a great game, but never jelled them correctly. So it just became a "fun to play" but not really great game.

The combat is easy compared to many action games. There are so many difficulties to pick from you have no point. You are just either poor or miserable. Probably both. The story is incredible, the art direction, the combat design...everything is beautifully done.

to me, I never really mind any of the combat system. But the story and the characters are what keep me going. But for some reason, I couldn't with Arise. or maybe i'm just bias after coming from Berseria....

i think in general since Vesperia two things have happened: An oversimplification of the world design and overcorrection of the battle mechanics. The latter was slower to come, as Xillia was more of a natural progression of that style, but they really began nerfing player potential and giving bosses super armor around that time (arguably even earlier starting with the PS3 vesperia port). They've kinda been trying to make it so players are less broken and can't combo bosses to death. IMO getting that strong always needed to be earned, but now its at tthe point where your attacks dont phase bosses at all and youre just chipping their health away while getting hit by attacks that do too much damage and you're just reviving and praying the whole time. The world design thing is easier to see. While the towns may look nice, they lack depth and exploration. Dungeons are also barely there, providing little to no challenge and many have the same visual language which makes them less distinct. Arise is a very good game, but i do think that the tales team needs to create richer games if they want to stay afloat. I do love this series, the battle system, characters etc but its been a while since one hit all the right notes. I'll also agree w/ the story stuff. Tales needs to bring their stories a bit more down to earth and keep it there as long as possible. Abyss has one of the best narratives because its core theme stayed at he forefront. Arise was more concerned with a huge anime twist than its plot imo.

Honestly, to me, a weird criticism about the long cutscenes and convos thing for a JRPG/RPG fan in general. I love that shit.

Hated this tales. To much racism story.

It just felt like it was missing something overall and the removal of battle skits definitely didn't help. It didn't have any humor, I didn't relate to any of the characters, the combat felt streamlined, I could go on and on. I personally think Tales of Xillia was the last good Tales game, some would say Berseria although I didn't like the combat system in that. Zestiria even had more charm than this game. It's all about graphics now but it's just not fun, it has no charm whatsoever. Vesperia and Graces f are my favorite.

oh look at that , atlas fallen , saw the trailer back then , didn't see a SINGLE gameplay video in my recommended , haven't heard a peep about it , not a single peep i actually thought they scrapped the game or that it was jus a demo from Nvidia , to show off their lighting techniques there only have been a few games , like this , that i haven't heard Anything about after launch

- one of the best looking JRPGs... like... ever ! -the first half of the story was pretty damn good. i loved it. but the moment you take that spaceship, you can just tell that SOMETHING happened with the development. -getting rid of 2d skits killed them. imo, tales skits in terms of look, peaked with berseria. berseria skits were long af, but they looked amazing. like straight up watching an anime. -combat is fun ! nothing crazy but it's one of good ones for tales. -Dohalim is one of the best looking characters ever. and had an amazing intro. only for it to be flushed down the drain and him ending up boring as hell. -Alphen, shionne and Kisara carried the cast. -rinwell is annoying as hell. 7/10 game but i bump it to 8/10 because it's the first tales game in AGES that actually tried to push the series into a new era. also glad that it sold well.

This game was at its peak at the revelation of 2nd lord.

This game is a 6/10 for me. Meanwhile, Berseria is a 9, Symphonia is a 8.8. Innocense R and Abyss are 8. Zestiria is a 7. Arise is decent, but it is, to me, one of the worst games in rhe series for me.
