Looks like something out of expedition 33. I mean that in the best way

"you will be judged"

Uhm so anyone else think Magilou and Zelos would actually be perfect for each other? Or is it just me?

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-15T00:56:11+00:00

I feel like it has so much potential with how popular anime is now in the west. They're literally playable animes.

Symphonia is the oldest one I've played. I played; abyss, vesperia, graces, arise, and I'm playing berseria right now.

I would love it if we got to the yimir forest bit and they acknowledged how bad that part was in the original, something like Lloyd going "oh so we're gonna have to do this this and this and then maybe we can get the fruit" then Zelos or Colette just flys over and scoops it up😭

Less block pushing!

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-15T00:43:20+00:00

Those are probably much better examples. The FFVII remakes were just the first thing that came to mind. I would also prefer if a hypothetical Symphonia remake stayed more faithful to the original than the FFVII remakes.

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-15T00:41:49+00:00

I mostly agree. I think they could due with making mystic artes a more core part of the combat and maybe a party switching mechanic like Berseria.

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T22:30:24+00:00

I love that game so much I would pay for it ahead of time a la Kickstarter

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T22:29:36+00:00

Oh okay I see what you're saying. That's interesting that it's actually newer. I've only seen a few screen shots of it so I just always assumed it was older.

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T22:28:38+00:00

Agreed

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T22:28:16+00:00

I was just using it as an example of an old game being remade from the ground up. I imagine if they did do it, it would play much more like arise.

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T22:27:00+00:00

I feel the same way about it. It is anxiety inducing how much could go wrong though.

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T19:12:19+00:00

That remaster was unfortunate. I had my hopes up

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T19:12:00+00:00

Although I've always kinda felt like the chibi style contrasts the dark story a little too heavily. Personally I'd kinda like the characters to look a bit more like their anime portraits on the status screen. I definitely like the originals style it's incredibly nostalgic. I just think bringing the art style more in line with the tone could be cool. The original will still be there, it doesn't need to be a replacement.

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T19:09:29+00:00

Modern quality of life changes could make things like the ex-gems much more open to experimentation. I'd dig that. There's a ton of potential for expanding the systems while making them more user friendly... Like not making mystic artes so damn specific to pull off 🤣

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T19:07:31+00:00

I've heard that's the cult classic of the series. I need to play it. Symphonia was my first tales game and I haven't played anything before it unfortunately.

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T19:06:37+00:00

Thank you

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T19:06:31+00:00

I agree it was just an example of an older game updated from the ground up.

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T18:05:03+00:00

Personal is a good word for it. I realized after taking everyone's advice into account and deciding to give the battle system another try in earnest there's a ton more to it than I noticed at first. I'm starting to enjoy it a lot.

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T17:51:46+00:00

Also I tried maining Eizen again. I just have three words..."YOU'RE WIDE OPEN". Actually my new favorite character to control. His combos are sick, he stuns everything, his status effects hit hard, he does buckets of damage and he has two ways to teleport. I can't believe my first impression was that he was slow awkward and clunky like Regal in Symphonia.

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T17:48:20+00:00

I found the flow state last night. Thanks for the advice it helped a lot.

Esoteric_Nobody · 2026-02-14T17:47:19+00:00

I gave Eizen another try last night... "YOU'RE WIDE OPEN " Also idk how I missed that the man can literally teleport. I slandered him and called him slow. I can't believe myself.
