PekoponTAS | 171 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I had always been curious about Tales of Symphonia when I was younger, but my mom got rid of our Game Cube before it came out because my brothers and I argued over Smash Bros. too much. I'm planning to play a few of the games since I've been playing Namco's Wii games lately. I'm planning to start with Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, and then eventually go back and play the one on Game Cube. I know that's doing it out of order, but I genuinely like jumping on to a series I've never touched out of order. I used to do it unintentionally, but these days I always do it on purpose since there are some fun unique benefits to doing so. Eventually I'd also like to get Tales of Graces on PS3, since it was originally a Japanese exclusive Wii game. Those are likely the only three I'll end up playing though.

I always love when people say Pokemon isn't really a JRPG, considering it's the most successful JRPG series for not doing the same thing as every other JRPG. I know you're not saying this so don't take it the wrong way, but I think a lot of JRPG fans resent Pokemon for being a JRPG so successful that it broke genre barriers and became the most mainstream thing around. The fact that it doesn't follow the conventions of most other JRPGs makes those other series look bad in comparison, as it shows that the RPG formula that fans love so much isn't a very popular thing. Most other JRPG series are still pretty niche all things considered, so Pokemon tends to get a lot of people feeling a bit put out and frustrated.

Reed Rothchild | 9,957 Editorials Team · Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Estil 's backlog: 2020s: finish the Tales franchise 2030s: finish the Trails franchise 2040s: play all of those Pokemans and Personas and MegaTens he's never heard of 2050s: Circle back and catch up on all of the new games that were released for all of those franchises Also, I hear there's these things called Disgaea, Xenogears/Saga/Blade, Ys, Ni No Kuni, Grandia, Breath of Fire, and so forth. And let's just say the Fire Emblem and Soulsbornes and Monster Hunters for the hell of it. Those can wait for the 2060s. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umm, I don't smoke either...I mean I wouldn't want my stuff to turn all icky yellow over time after all You know, my grandma and aunt give me a bit of ribbing for it as they (especially grandma) smoke like chimneys (yet grandma has made it to 90 so far! Go figure!) and think I'm being silly when I don't want to be near them when they smoke. Yeah, I guess I'm just a big fan of breathing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is totally what I’m smoking All joking aside, cigarettes are a young man’s game. Too expensive, you can’t breathe for shit, and who needs constant nicotine cravings. My MIL is the last one in the family still smoking and no one can get her to quit. Has to be on oxygen most of the time and that still doesn’t stop her. Sad.

Yet my grandma is 90, my aunt is 53, and in a couple months I'll be *gulp* 43. And yes as Morgan Freeman would say from Lean on Me, all that stuff you mentioned means you can hardly breathe!!

Estil | 1,292 Posted January 27, 2023 Author Share Posted January 27, 2023 So I'm now working on Tales of Graces F and it sure does have some cute/funny victory scenes! And I know that superfan girl of Sophie isn't exactly for everyone but I think her mannerisms are kinda amusing! What's her name, I forget...C++, Cobol, Fortran, Basic...?

Estil | 1,292 Posted February 5, 2023 Author Share Posted February 5, 2023 Oh this is so funny...I often thought that the peaches in this game look like little butts (hee hee) and right before I was thinking that, one of those Select button prompts/chats comes up where Sophie in fact says herself that the peaches look like butts!!!
