Welcome to the official discussion thread for Tales of the Abyss on the 3DS!

To start, please add this game to your log, add it to your collection (if applicable), and (when you are ready) rate it using the link above!

This morning I picke ethe last copy of this game up at GameStop. I knew I was gonna start playing it the moment I beat xenoblade, and that time is now!

I'm hoping more people are playing this game. I didn't bother to read any reviews of this game because there has yet to be a tales game I did not love, that I played of course!!

I will update this thread with impressions shortly.

If you have the game, please, let us discuss it here!

@Mop it up

I wouldn't say so, though it might be tougher to find the game since it originally came out on the PS2 years ago and is no longer in print.

The only thing that bugs me about the game after 32 hours in is the following: i REALLY hate how this game keeps giving me a flying ship and taking it away. It is killing the pacing. The fact that I am always losing the ability to use it is just making me mad. Is the only thing about the game that annoys me.

38 hours in. I recorded a negative world podcast with Gui last night and I see about this game with NO spoilers. For some reason I feel like I made the game seem bad as opposed to good... Though I did say I thought the game was great and how It is my killer app for the 3ds. I just wanted to let you guys know I talked about the game without any story tidbits.

Kinda off topic, but Tales of Graces f for the PS3 comes out either today or tomorrow. Anybody picking it up?

I'll get that some day. I'm still trying to beat this, 44 hours now. And after I beat it ima play te ng+ with bonus xp. And after that, kid Icarus will be out!!

Just hit 47 hours and I still haven't beaten it. I have done no sidequests so this is 47 hours of story. I think I'm about to enter the final dungeon though.

10 hours in to my second Playthrough. It's crazy how fast you can get through the game if you skip dialogue!

@Scrawnton

It is faster that way. Also, you can have some amusing changes in the dialogue at the beginning if you change Luke's costume to one where he has shorter hair. Even the big cutscene between him and Tear is accounted for with a rather amusing scene after it. The developers thought of a lot to include those. Also, with the Grade you had, what extra bonuses did you go for your second time around?
03/18/12, 07:16   
@CB200 2x xp, Cary over gald, extra grade and other dinky stuff.
