    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The character Yggdrasill's name is taken from Norse Mythology. According to the Norse, the Yggdrasill was the giant ash tree which connected the three worlds, Asgard (land of the gods), Midgard (land of the mortals), and Niflheim (the underworld). In the game, the giant Kharlan tree has a similar function, being a "link that connects the world." Furthermore, an identical tree appears in the series's first game, Tales of Phantasia, under the name "Yggdrasill."

    • Quotes

      Yuan: So you've come, like moths to the flame!

      [Yuan and Botta appeared at the scene]

      Lloyd Irving: Do you ever say anything original?

      Zelos Wilder: You gotta admit... that line is seriously clichéd.

      Yuan: I see your attitudes haven't changed! But your impudence ends here! Prepare to die!

      [Lloyd's group starts fighting Yuan and Botta]

    Fun and loving!
    The gameplay is so fun and makes sure it won't leave disappointed even after you've played through the game once. It's really fun to perfect your attacks and combos. The magic spells look great and simple even if it's short termed. Most of the battles end quick so you don't have to wonder how long when the battles' gonna be over. It feels like you're rewarded for playing the game most of the time. but I think the beginning gets boring after the first play through. But in the later game, it gets fun once again.

    The characters look great even though their clothing is a little odd. There are mixed opinions about the characters but they are likable to me. The story isn't exactly what you call original but I like the characters so much, I don't care if the story is bad or not. Although some characters don't have a big enough role.

    This game has the best gameplay i've ever experienced so far and my first tales game ever.
