ANARYU'S PROFILE

Hmm, there's a couple of tricks in the water area. The two key puzzle mechanics are:
1. shooting switches and bombs from a distance
2. shooting a bomb and then getting past a door/bridge before it explodes

If that doesn't help let me know and I'll put together a video of the water-way since that area confuses a lot of people. :)

Come on, it's not hard:

Stealing == Bad

A lot of the Tales love really comes into whether you can enjoy the combat or not, since regardless of which game that's what it really comes down to.

The stories are actually some of the best in RPGs as far as I'm concerned, and the characterization and voice acting in the last few of them has been fantastic compared to other RPGs (and other voice acted games in general...)

Skits are pure genius and something I'm working into one of my own projects (super easy way for lots of extra character development that isn't required).

I know the highly anime-feel can turn off a lot of players, but the battle system just gets more and more deep as you get into it (much like a fighting game with learning how to chain together artes so you can juggle opponents or reduce your own open time between combos or even create infinite combos) so it can be a dull series if you don't enjoy that.

Each new iteration adds new features that really change how the combat works; Abyss added free-move and had it's Field of Fonons bit (awesome when you learned to use it) and Vesperia has added Finishing Strikes, which are the greatest thing ever.

My only complaint about Tales of games are:

1. Sometimes less required fighting would be nice
2. Less dull dungeons and puzzles (the solutions are usually simple and the dungeons longer than necessary)
3. Some extra systems are less useful than they could be (see: Cooking, the PSP Tales of the World does cooking right, along with crafting!)

Or you could just post your games in the Game Manager and not make threads that will get derailed or ignored.

Honestly it works. I've got like 60 downloads and no drama on something released a week or so ago.

This is why topic threads for your games are unproductive; if people were really serious about giving feedback wouldn't they go and look at your game pages to research and then play it?

On average we really aren't all that interested in playing each others games, but we LOVE to make our opinions (usually stated as fact) very clear. Just use the Games section.

Whoa!

So, um, I need to update that fix then. Everything else is good now thanks to GreatRedSpirit? :D
