Symphonia is good, for such an older game. A lot of people say is "the best" but I think its up to the person. Honestly, I wish Bamco would be a little more open with their releases. They've skipped so many versions and games that its hard for the series to TRULY have a place. And re-releases, even on Steam for a mass-user-base would be welcome. Heck, they don't even have many of their titles available on PSN; it's hard for people to buy them. But, I will say that there is a PS2 emulator that will run discs on your PC if you happen across a decent priced copy of Abyss or Legendia and if your PC can handle the pull of an emulator. |

here's a question why Zestiria? Graces and Xillia both had much better stories and characters that could work well for an anime, also love it how the trailer even show cased Alichia and Dezzel when both are not even in the party that long spoiler[especially Dezzel who got killed off]

3 options imo
1) Yeah, might be a cross-over with character from the two/three games etc. meh. I've never been a fan of those, feels always fanfictional and not canon. And honestly, with two games, I had enough Xillia. 2) It might be a cross-over type b: Zestiria might connect to Xillia in the end; by this I mean both games play in the same universe, and Xillia is the future? Elysia certainly reminded me of Milla's village in Xillia. But it's been ages since I played Xillia and I remember next to nothing..That's how strong the impact the game had on me was... 3)It's blasphemy  The "gentle shepard" is another name for Jesus, Elysia (=the name for the greek paradise) lieing above the clouds with the"seraphim" (=angels) living there is obviously referring to Christian paradise. Mikleo and Sorey are "descending" from there to the world of humans where they purify the humans of evil. People praying to the shepard is another reference to the New Testament...Enough references I guess to justify the association of a "cross" with Jesus' final moments I guess. Though, admittedly, the Japanese names and texts are pretty different. Well, the translation is just one giant error anyways.
Personally, I thought "~the journey is leaving the boundaries of Zestiria" meant that this will be a sequel. I thought so because they showed Xillia + Xillia 2. It's like one of those intelligence tests - Xilia 2 ~ Xillia like Zestiria the X ~ Zestiria. I also thought so because it's called ToZ, not ToZ X Xillia, and also because (my guess) the new guy there with the white/pink hair is probably Maotelus. He's having a big dragon on his clothes after all. But, I might be completely wrong. If it's 1) or 2) I just hope they don't stuff too many chracters in there. Just Xillia 1 please! I thought ToZ was much better characterwise than ToX. Though the story felt rushed like HELL. It felt like they originally had a really good script and then someone liked to use the shredder a little too much. So I am actually hoping they can make up for that. |

I don't agree. Zestiria was rushed so much, that I was even asking myself at the end what was going on. And I liked Graces! Very much so, probably more than most others do. But I have this giant issue there with their friendship-thing. Zestiria -too rushed. Graces - problem with Asbels motivation. In the end I couldnt say that one is "better". Xillia has cr*** characters. Jude and Milla have like 0 chemistry between them, and Jude is like ff12's Vaan. And I really have enough of Xillia by now. As Xillia 2 showed - it's not getting any better. |
