I miss all of them too! I've been playing Xillia, which, while pretty good, just doesn't grab me the way Abyss and Vesperia did. Yuri is still my favourite Tales character to play as.
Vesperia is the fandom I've written some of my longest fic in, and where I got a lot more confident with writing. Yuri and Flynn meant a lot to me. ♥
Speaking of fics, I writed a LOT about Vesperia (and also Abyss), but I can't remember my FanFiction account and my notebook with all my old Word files broke. I dedicated so much time to them... Anyway, it would be nice to read your Vesperia's fics someday!
Vesperia was my first Tales game... I've played others since, but none of them have grabbed me the same way. I remain disappointed that we never got the PS3 version over here, annoyed that Microsoft blocked it. My Japanese is not remotely that good. I bought the movie, but can't bring myself to watch it, don't want to mess with the memories I have. Which makes me wonder how I would handle the PS3 version, or if they made a sequel.
Still have a long story I was working on, regret not finishing it and posting it. I miss my own take on the world, just don't have enough time to get back into it. Sometimes I try, but I'd need to play the game through a few times, and right now I just don't have the time. But I still look at that world through Raven's eyes, and probably always will.
Hi! Thanks for replying.♥ Well, I wasn't interested in the PS3 version. When I was younger I though it was so sad that they changed the story. I was really in love with it so I refused something different. Now (five years later) I'd love to play it! I feel really curious about it.
It's weird how much things changed in everyone's life all these years. There's time for nothing and a lot of things to remember. I don't know if you understand what I'm trying to say, but I hope you do. I wish I could feel the same way when I played Vesperia years ago ...
I think I get it. When some official back-story came out for Schwan and Casey, I found that I no longer wanted it--by that time, I'd decided for myself what had happened. I think I'd end up feeling the same way about the PS3 version, but I'd like the option to at least see it (in a language that I can readily understand).
Yes. I played Vesperia with my older brother; he was always Yuri, and I was always Raven. For awhile, those jokingly became our nicknames for each other, because in our personal headcanon those two became inseparable friends after all of their losses--that they "got" each other in a way others couldn't. (That's what actually spawned the fic I mentioned.) It was representative of us, too. What's this have to do with what you said? Well, now he's on one side of the country and I'm on the other; we see each other about once a year and talk every few months. We're no less close--emotionally, anyway. Physically, well, so many things have changed. So I can understand wanting to "go back".
I miss the days when LJ was more active as these communities here were really good with quality discussions and lots of relevant posts. It was fun, and there's nothing else really like it to replace it. This site is so dead now... I guess everyone likes Tumblr these days, which is a site I don't seem to understand ?_
( ... )
Yeah! In the days Livejournal was alive I really enjoyed reading discussions, reviews and everything (because I have more ability reading english than writing it or reading it). I think this is the first thing I have ever posted!
Me too! I bought my xbox 360 only to play Vesperia! Everyone said I was crazy but I regret nothing, haha! The only Tales of series games I remember playing are Vesperia and Abyss... If I played other I don't remember! Maybe that's because these two mean a lot to me...
And yes, is very sad when you think you've done everything. It's like.... it's over AND I WAN'T MORE I DON'T WANT IT TO END!!!!!1!!1!11111111!!!!!!! I can't think about playing the PS3 version because I don't know japanese so I hope they make a sequel for Vesperia!
