If I like Tales games, what other series should I try out?

Similar series I've already played include Star Ocean, Ys, and Summon Night.

Lawl I was about to say Star Ocean. They're practically the same game and they were started by the same entities.

So you want an RPG where you can do some action things? Did you try Fair Fencer F yet?

Depends on what elements you're looking for. I mean, are you looking for more real time combat games, JRPGs with anime aethetics (either design or themes), etc?


Is that even all that worthwhile? I don't remember hearing much about it (it doesn't even seem to get brought up in JRPG threads either).

Yeah it's alright. I played all the Tales games up to and including Graces F and all the Star Oceans to 5, every Ys game, and some games from Flight Plan so I know where OP is coming from. Fairy Fencer F had a cheap but classic feel and it has a quick pace. I would recommend at least trying it out.

I've been hearing good things about akibas beat, though i haven't been able to get my hands on it yet.

Can you play akibas beat on pstv? I loved the undead and undressed game

Real-time combat, because I honestly feel like it's entirely too difficult to make turn based combat in a non-strategy game feel rewarding and entertaining.

As for anime aesthetics, I wouldn't really have to look very far if that's ALL I wanted.


I recommend Berseria. It's actually significantly better than Xillia through Zestiria. It's not as good as past entries, but it's far more tolerable than recent entries and can scratch the itch pretty well.

I bought Akiba's Trip on the Vita for a while but ultimately found it a bit boring.

Beat 'em up games, musou games, Platinum games and things of that ilk don't really appeal to me.

I still want the JRPG experience. The exploration, the character building, the party customization… I just don't want the turn-based combat, not even a little.

akibas beat says it's an action jrpg with a battle system like tales though

Speaking about Fairy Fencer F. Advent Dark Forces is coming up soon this Valentine. You guys might want to check it out. At last, I can get that Effole Ending.

I bought fairy fencer f when it was on sale, haven't played it yet, can I waifu anyone?
