Well, I understand his comment. Even being limited, you can't skip the first game of the saga, where everything began. Because you're young, but for me it's also like any other game has no meaning if the original one isn't there.

Sigh I had to skip a Game if I wanted it or not.And regardless of the Game I would skip people would complain.So don't complain to me about it complain that the Poll only Offers only a limited number that I can add.I would have added it if I could,and I am not that young anymore I know the First Game is Important but like I said I had no Choice I had to chose and my Options where limited.
Besides you still can write your Favorite Game regardless if I could add it to the poll or not.

My mistake, I see you had to leave some out.
Tales of Phantasia would be my favorite then, with Vesperia being a close 2nd

Wich Version of Tales of Phantasia as there are many Versions.I personally heard the Ps1 Version is the Best.So what do you think is the Best Version of Phantasia ?

 

[nobitakun]

As long as it is not the GBA version, Super Famicom, PSP or PS1 will do. My favourite is PS1 because it was the first one I played, but PSP version has everything voiced.

Is the Gba version that Bad ?

 

[dropsmegamega]

I have yet to play more of this series, but I have so much nostalgia of playing Phantasia on ZSNES with dejap translation, it was the first fantranslation I played and I doubt anything will top that game for me, even if it was somehow objectively better.

Honestly, among all the games in the Tales of franchise, I've only played Tales of Symphonia on the GameCube.

I am Currently playing it ;) but the Ps3 Version

 

[PrismRed]

Tempest. :)

 

[Aziamuth]

I wish I could participate but I only played Symphonia, Zestiria and the opening hours of Vesperia. I'd say Vesperia is the best out of the three but at the same time I didn't play enough :/

 

[Cu-Neo]

Vesperia has Rita, easily my favourite game on the franchise

 

[bjork]

I only ever owned Destiny and Symphonia but played neither for any real amount of time. So I'll say Symphonia because of the Klonoa costume, and also the mint GC is really cool.

i really REALLY hated symphonia 1, the horrible AI alone almost made me quit the game, there was no way to tell the mages to stay back they always ran up front, and when they had 0 tp they just rush into the nearest enemy, no matter what AI strategy i set! and i never got sheena to ever throw out a summon unless i told her to/was contolling her.
swear to god I only beat this with 2 player co-op otherwise i'd have happily left it unfinished.
it's the prime example of bad AI ruins a game, the AI is that bad, i don't have to mention the lack of a good dodge mechanic or free movement at all.
i did do everything in it besides beating hard/mania
i played symphonia basically after zestiria btw, on the ps3 remaster collection. absolutely didn't help me like symphonia lol,
sad thing it's nowhere near the WORST AI i've seen in a game but it's pretty close.
(that honor goes to Phantasy star Universe, offline story mode, to give an example it takes the AI about 10 seconds to swap weapons)

i've played every game after symphonia 1 (including symphonia 2) i beat on at least hard difficulty, did new game pluses and (for graces, xillia1/2, zestiria, berseria) i got all the grade shops maxed. definitely had no issues finishing those games and least xillia games onward the Ai got much smarter.
i beat all the games mentioned above on their highest difficulties.
just to say, i definitely like tales games and i'm not terrible at em

now the latest one Tales of Arise i have big noticeable issues to point out.
first off, NO MULTIPLAYER AT ALL, this is the ONLY console tales to NOT HAVE CO-OP, far as i know.
i've played all of symphonia to Berseria in co-op 2 players, it's just way more fun and less AI problems and more teamwork and combo setups and such.
2nd holy hell the boss fights take like 30 minutes or something they're way too long and tanky, bosses never freaking flinch either which is really really dumb, only the gimmicky QTE stuff really hurts them.
this is on NORMAL difficulty i can't even imagine on higher modes how tanky the bosses are.
3rd, at any given moment there's way too many moves to throw out, this is the only tales game i went FULL AUTOMATIC on many many times, i'm too lazy to keep hitting d-pad for party member moves, doing ground to air to ground moves all over, even forget to hit the team skill button when it comes up.
4th, idk if its just me but it REALLY felt like they wanted you to buy DLC, OR spend a whole lot of time grinding for even just money to fully gear up, i just went the lazy route and dropped the diffculty as needed
i'm getting old for this i'll be honest LOL.

 

[Questless Knight]

I own several of them like 5-6 of them but sadly I only played and beaten Arise and Abyss and for me does 2 are my all time favorites so far. Abyss have my favorite charter Tear Grants. But yeah I enjoy both of them.


But this is the problem for me it´s hard to say one favorite in a big series. Like take Final fantasy I would say 4, 6.8,9 10 are all time favorites of all time becuse they are all good in their own rights.

So if I play more Tales games I might get more favorites.

 

[Tonberry]

Vesperia!!!
Yuri my beloved

Is the Gba version that Bad ?

really bad sound quality, if you play the english version the dub is so bad it's barely understandable even at high volumes, visual quality is lacking too compared to SNES.
i can't recommend GBA over SNES original at all, the translation is also screwed (they say KANGAROO instead of RAGNAROK, LIKE WHAT!?)

the combat is dumbed down a LOT compared to SNES but they changed the "long range/short range" skills to the usual 4 directions + arte button of later games, they added cooking (any other port of phantasia has this just not SNES) and i think an additional character,
and it just looks bad, GBA itself is just a downgraded SNES as seen by many SNES to GBA ports (yoshis island, mario world, DK country 1,2 and 3,
i don't know of the other ports having the additional character haven't played any but SNES and GBA.

if you actually liked symphonia, you'd like practically every game after it hands down since anything after it was an upgrade in basically every way, even story.
