Tales of Graces

[P-chan]

This might be the box art. ;3;



My party is so going to be Asbel, Cheria, Pascal, and Richard.

[P-chan]

I'm playing Graces in Japanese now.

Even though I don't understand anything other than the little pieces in katakana I can pick out, it's going to be a contender for my favorite Tales game ever just because the battle system is just so agja;skhdal;kdjgkl;asd <3

ALSO THE DOGS TALK.



WHAT.

*spoilers*

I am disappointed that Richard won't be in my permanent party, though. Instead I will use Asbel, Cheria, Pascal, and Hubert. Hubert's weapons are badass.

[P-chan]

Why do I like Hubert now? I was waiting for 15 hours to get him into my party and then I play as him and his attacks have SO MUCH LAG. ;3; So I let the AI use him and just stay with my Asbel.

His formal wear is hot. So is Asbel's. Once I get to endgame and get those formal costumes I'm never going to take them off.

If this game seriously gets localized in Europe I'm going to be so glad to be able to play it in English. I only understand big parts of the plot. I wish I could understand the skits, because Pascal is so AWESOME in them.

I'm in Pascal's hometown now right after she SAVED HUBERT. My thoughts on the game so far:

[spoilers maybe]

Battle system is like Destiny Remale (obviously) except it's not as easy to spam the A style artes. Since you have to go from 1CC > 2CC > 3CC > 4CC it's a lot more restricted. Yet, I still like it a lot more than Destiny Remake and Hearts so far. IT'S SO MUCH FLASHIER. ;3;

The Blast Caliburs I have so far are okay, I guess. They're only level 1, though, and you know that Team Destiny likes saving the good stuff for level 2 and 3... HUBERT'S ARE ALL SO AWESOME, THOUGH.

I don't understand why Hubert is always so pissed at Asbel. I wish you could have beaten him in the first duel, but he just has to use INSTANT VALSE and own Asbel. And in the second friendly duel, why was he so easy? I wish the AI would use Hubert like he was in the first duel.

I miss Richard. He was going to be in my party but then he just had to become evil. >.> The traitors in Team Destiny games are always the cool characters... However I'm fine with having Hubert instead.

Cheria sucks as a healer, but I'm using her instead of Sophie because I don't like how Sophie looks. orz I'm glad there's a friendly duel with Sophie sometime. I can put her in her MIKU costume and beat up Miku over and over again. \o/

Uh, yeah, I'll stop now. Graces is my new favorite Tales after Destiny Remake, though. ;3; After you get past the boring kids part it gets a lot better...
