Very true. While the graphics are fantastic, just having great graphics doesn't mean a thing if the gameplay itself isn't good.

I'm digging it. The main character actually looks like he's wearing gear meant for fighting monsters. Not some weird skin tight costume or shredded tights like previous protagonists.
Might get it if gameplay ends up being good too!

Seems really weird to me that Bamco would announce what they called a "new mainline Tales of" game for Switch 2 years ago but then would release a new game for everything but Switch.
Basically.
But it really seems pushing Baba out also helped. I don't think the game necessarily has a bigger budget.
Sure the graphics are a major improvement, but they seemingly sucked out all the colour and vibrance from it. FFXV was still colourful. Even Dragon Age Inquisition was, and that's not even a JRPG.
If vesperia sold badly I would understand but it didnt, or maybe they have different sales targets for xbox and switch
Sweet - thats just what the series need - a game that actually looks like it developed with some budget.
No Switch is a bummer, but this is probably their go big or go home title for this generation so adding another plattform probably wasnt in the cards for the initial release.

Wow, a Tales game with decent graphics is a nice change. Not that they were bad looking before. You can still see the anime bleed through the hair.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Wonder what happened...
Maybe an exclusive for the Switch alongside this one?
Get that western filth outta here.Wow, a Tales game with decent graphics is a nice change. Not that they were bad looking before. You can still see the anime bleed through the hair.
At this rate the trailer will be leaked 🤣
That screenshot is very promising
If the character designs are decent and Go Shiina (or someone other than Sakuraba) is composing the music then I might actually give this a chance despite Tales not really being my cup of tea normally

I want to know where is All the posters that said Brand new Japanese 3P games would start coming to the Switch in 2019.
I tried to resist clicking this topic so I could experience it in its full glory whenever the trailer releases (MS e3 press conference probably?) But I'm weak. It looks like a HUGE step up from Berseria, and I love that the MC looks like an adult (watch him still be ~21 like Yuri though lmao).
This game better still have local co-op though, or my SO and I will riot. This is our favorite series to play together.

Could be that it just easier to port to Xbox and switch version will come later .
I don't like this visual direction for the series at all.
The Tales series in general is generic and full of anime tropes.
To me, it looks like they want to "specifically" target western audience with this approach.
I didn't expect this at all.

It would make sense, but it seems that no big japanese 3P cares about their home market anymore.
It obviously looks better than previous Tales games but I wouldn't say that the graphics are anything special.
ToVR launched only a couple months ago and likely sold quite well on Switch. So that performance has nothing to do with this game skipping Switch - thats not not a decision that happens in that short amount of time.
This is Bamco - after all they might release a Switch version a year later.

Sold well, but it's yet it's another game that sold less there than previous entries because it changed to appeal to the west, like most stuff the third parties are doing. World 2 will probably sell even less and etc. The death of the japanese console market is basically a self fulfiilling prophecy.
Does it have a budget? I'm not getting my hopes up there.
yep so i guess people can say it gone from japanese generic to western generic lol
Looks pretty
I'm unfamiliar with the series beyond the name
What's the gameplay like? What makes it special?
