Dont know what to expect with Tales, never play one before but the gameplay look good. Which one to start? Graces or Xillia or Abyss?

More recommendation? I have the whole summer. How about Atelier? or Disgaea and Etrain Odyssey franchises?

Yea, they remade tales of the abyss for 3ds. I played it on the PS2 only though and I dont think it's that different for the 3ds version

I liked Abyss. Vesperia was kind of boring for me. It's a well-made game, though.

I noticed no one recommended anything Atelier.
Try Atelier Escha and Logy if you want to start of with the Atelier series. Much less lenient on time management and it has pretty solid cell shaded graphics. If you already played it, the other atelier game i'd recommend is Atelier Totori. It's much more time strict and requires a lot of planning but fun nonetheless. Atelier Meruru is a good follow-up to Totori since it's somewhat connected storywise.

Don't get Atelier Rorona btw. Unless you're a hardcore atelier fan. Rorona has the hardest gameplay out of all the atelier games in the ps3 and requires you to follow a guide to the tee. The graphics aint that good either. If you're interested in Rorona though wait for the remake version.

The last atelier game I haven't mentioned for the ps3 is Atelier Ayesha. Not much to say about this. It's about the same as Escha and Logy in terms of time management but it's a bit dull at times. Try the other atelier games first before this one.

For anything else non atelier, try the recommendations of the users above. Still waiting for Atelier Shaari to come out D:

any tales on the ps3 as they are all great,for Shin Megami Tensei go for Nocturne Persona 4/3, Rune Factory: Tides of Destiny is pretty good.

As for Atelier games try I would say Atelier Totori first then go down the line from there, I would say start with Rorona but they are releasing a remake which fixes a lot of the things of the original one.

Depends. P3Portable gives you the option to play a female MC instead, which changes a large portion of Social Links, giving you extra replayability. It also improves the gameplay including being able to control your party members (many seem to have issues with how retarded the party AI can be in the original P3).

However, it removes the anime cutscenes and cuts out a lot of the traveling between locations, opting for menu-based selection for locations.

FES is the exact same as the original P3 with the added addition of The Answer chapter, which is a separate epilogue chapter. It gets really grindy.

In addition, the definitive version of P4 is P4 Golden on the Vita. But since you don't have one, you can grab the original off the PSN.

It's not like the game forces you to use casual mode. Ramp up the difficulty. Problem solved.

The ps3 version is superior and all but story wise it borders on identical. The only difference was flynn joins the party however he doesnt do with until near the very end of the game in the last 15% of the game, and even then he was still prominent in the finale as well as the rest of the game. Patty sits silently throughout most of the game outside of parts specifically made for her character that never really go anywhere.

Saying its shitty for lacking what is essentially a couple hours of extra content in a already 50 hour game is just absurd.

from reviews on yt who say they did play classic mode correcrly ie thye may as well of played noob mode ie they would rest and relod soon as some one died so the ideal of perma death is there the threat is not

imo i think agarest dod tje semi perma death diea in a better why were you had the buy a revive 1000 Gold per level per Character

For Atelier series, I recommend to start with Atelier Rorona, though if you are a completionist like me, you will have to follow a guide, or play through the game at least couple times to get all the endings and such. That said, my word doesn't really weigh much, as I've only played Atelier Rorona myself. I have bought Totori and Meruru too, and I'm planning to buy Escha & Logy, but I haven't got around to play them yet (I've bought way too many games lately, and I have no clue when I'll get around to finish all of them).

Thank everyone for helping and contributing. Just found out that a game called Lost Dimension is made for PS3 and Vita in future. It is from the makers of Shin Megami Tensei Strange Journey with Gravity Rush artist. New IP inspired by Shin Megami Tensei IV, it looks good.

too many games I want to play, too little time. first world problem.

I think the Rorona remake will also be coming out of the ps3 so the graphics problem shouldn't bother you anymore but the hard parts are still there; well kind of.

So you won't agree that Tales guts the games for NA releases? If people keep buying stuff like that it just tells them it will still sell even if they are fucking us over.

I couldnt give less of a shit if we got inferior versions, cause you know what the alternative was? Not getting them at all. Besides vesperia wasnt a gutted version, they didnt hold back any content because its the original version they got in japan too, the ps3 version was a re-release nearly 2 years after its first release and a year after its US release. the only thing we got "gutted" on was not having voiced skits before 2006. They havent been cutting stuff since abyss because the games are selling well now and they have faith in the series overseas.

So you can either over-react over what is bonus content that isnt even supposed to be good to the point where you arent able to play the games at all, or you can deal with losing roughly a hour of content in a 50 hour game and actually play the fucking game.

you id not grow up with the franchise like did i i can never say an FE is out and out trash like what FF has truned in to of late bust FF for the most part has always been the csual rog franchise

i do not want FE to becoame the same mess FF has and the casualizton in kakisei has made it look like its going that that way the same way te sucess of the Persoma games has hurt SMT as a Franchise play any of the SMT games on the famicom Su fami and psx/Saturn and you see how casual SMT has become

im not Idea factory fan but agarest senki Franchise has been the best set of RPGs in the last gen by far
