so after the demo performance, it still remains the most stable 60fps performance?
I dunno, I can only comment on the version I'm playing. I ain't digital foundry :Pso after the demo performance, it still remains the most stable 60fps performance?

but it plays smooth as hell, I've had no real issues
Some of the voice actors and actresses for the owls are definitely moaning lmao
oh okay, just remember the demo version breakdown.....the XSX always where high 50's/60fps while PS5 dropped to low 50's/high 40's, just wasnt sure if thats still the case for retail version.
Anybody know how the PC version performance is since it can be purchased for $50 currently?
I beat the game today. I was kind of annoyed that (unless I missed it) they never explained...
How Shionne escaped to Dahna and stole the Fire Master Core from Lord Balseph. Or even where she escaped from (I thought we'd get to visit it like we got to visit the lab from Alphen's flashback when we went up there).
Also, didn't someone say that Shionne storing the Fire Master Core in her body was unusual? The rest of the Lords just seem to carry their Master Cores. That was never expanded upon as far as I remember, but at least we can kind of guess it has something to do with her Maiden powers or something.
Yeah, it feels good. It's not breaking my back yet the battles are still engaging and fun. At this point it's the sweet spot. I'm curious about getting to the 5th area where people are saying there's a difficulty spike.

yeah. since you can't spam normal attack. theres a CD before it resets. and you get a penalty for doing the same moveI really dont get the button mash critique. Im playing on moderate and if I were just mashing either my battles would take forever or a boss would devastate me
All these owls enjoy the daytime. Where's the night owls atHootle if he hears people getting horny over his owl friends:

Does anyone know the total amount of owls? Anything special if you find them all?
The owls unlock cosmetics and alt colours for your party along with accessories. Later on they unlockDoes anyone know the total amount of owls? Anything special if you find them all?

Playing through Cyslodia.
Meneck being the villain was stupidly obvious. Like, the minute I saw him I knew he was a bad guy.
I remember literally just looking at his face for the first time and saying out loud "he looks shady"
How the hell do you do Law's mystic arte? Is it different from Alphen's?
you get a battle high mechanic where if you chain encounters you get a boost to your battle rewards, only opens up after a bit into the game (a bit too far in IMO but definitely unlocks before you have your full party)All right now I'm starting to think the DLC is dirty because that growth boost pack is looking good seeing as how gaining SP is so slow
You can spend the money in the store on those 👙On Mod Nexus I see multiple nude/skimpy mods for Alphen and none for Shionne or any other women. My expectations have been thoroughly subverted.
Performance mode is same res and rock solid 60 on both. 4K native mode is average 45fps on PS5 while its ~50 on XSX but the latter also has advantage of VRR. PC perf is perfect, if you have a newer card you can push 120fps even (with some drops in large areas).oh okay, just remember the demo version breakdown.....the XSX always where high 50's/60fps while PS5 dropped to low 50's/high 40's, just wasnt sure if thats still the case for retail version.

By the way, so damn glad to finally have the second set of artes slots unlocked. Playing as Alphen is even more fun now, same with Shionne. Haven't touched the others much yet since unlocking the feature but I imagine it'll be similarly more satisfying.
A question though... Without spoilers, but is there much more to the game after the fifth realm? I'm just curious as I'm already in the fourth realm and I don't want the adventure to end anytime soon, of course. I've heard people say it's one of the shorter Tales games, which is disappointing, but I'm expecting/hoping there'd at least be one more region after the fifth realm.

Oh right, forgot I could look at those stats. Didn't realize they tracked the skits though. That's interesting.I don't know any more than you do (about to wrap up the fourth realm) but just looking at statistics in the menu at the percentages of skits I've unlocked, weapons forged, items found, etc it sure looks like there is quite a bit of game left to me.
Oh sweet, heck yeah. Thanks!
Just turned my PS4 on to play again and I got notified there's a update for the game! Downloading now!
It says… Version 1.03: Fixed issues occurring after certain battles
They did a really good job making the cast in this game pretty relatable, Although I also find the cast unbearable/irritating at times as well, Rinwell included, it usually stems from how they paced my (the player) getting to know them (and a few writing decisions), at least for me the pacing of getting to know them could have used some tweaking. Also Anise from Tales of Abyss soured me on all kid characters in tales games and JRPGs as a whole so whenever I encounter a new on in a new game it's a tougher hill for them to climb for me to enjoy them as characters if that makes any sense.Lord have mercy rinwell and how she acts with rehnans is ultra relatable
What were your non spoiler final impressions after beating it?
Yeah I don't remember them elaborating much on how Shionne got the Master Core. I just assume she was an orphan/outcast on Lenegis because of her thorns.
The whole master core thing is weird because all the Renan lords can materalize it out of nowhere so I'm not sure if they have it in them or if the cores turn into their weapons. When you defeat Ganabelt he just has it in his hands before he dies, Dohalim drops it when you knock his weapon out of his hand, Almeidrea isn't holding it but drops it when Vhloran impales her so it makes it seem like it came out of her and Vhloran drops it when he dies but it's not clear if it's his weapon or from his body.
I'd attribute Shionne being a maiden to why she can house the fire core within her. If we go by the fire core you can spawn weapons out of the cores so maybe the lord weapons do come from cores.
This is probably my biggest complaint about the game, at least at 15 hours in. Bosses are just way too spongey. On the bright side, you can just knock it down to the easiest difficulty because the difficulty level doesn't affect trophies/achievements at all.Playing on Moderate, and these Lord bosses are soo hard 😭 They have are so tanky that I can't tell if I'm supposed to beat them or not lol.
Give everyone alexandrite Accessories to at least survive His light attack. And have some sort of apple gel and life bottles because he's going to go into desperation modeThis second lord fight can suck my fuckin ass. I've had to drop down to normal and still can't get him past his Indignation cast.
In fact, all human fights so far have fucking sucked.
