Rokurou Age: 22 Height: 180 cm Weapon: Twin Swords Battle Type: Twin Swordsman A cheerful and carefree swordsman. Several years ago during the outbreak of Daemonblight and became a Daemon, but instead of being pessimistic he decided to made use of this power to reach the limits of his family's traditional swordsmanship and continues to walk that path. Inspired by some event, he owes a debt to Velvet and follows her. He has a large sword on his back called the "Tachi of Life" which is important to him, for some reason he tries not to use it, preferring to fight with short swords in a twin sword style. Eleanor Age: 18 Height: 165 cm Weapon: Spear Battle Type: First Class Taimashi A Taimashi woman who is a part of the Seiryou. As a first-class Taimashi, she works day and night to free the world from the threat of Daemons. Very earnest, she won't forget the kindness of others, but she has a stubborn side that always tries to do the right thing. She has an honest personality so she shows her emotions easily, but she will be callous towards those that bring up her inexperience. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Taimashi use Seirei (Malak) to perform magical artes. -You can change you player avatar, and when you do you can get special dialogue, such as Rokurou explaining what a Yack is to Velvet. -The blonde guy appears to be a Taimashi. There are ranks to the Taimashi, like Special Class, First Class, and Second Class. I don't think they say his rank however. -There is an indicator to see how many souls remain on an enemy to take. -There's a shot treasure chest on a distant cliff, with no apparent way to walk/climb over there. Suggests we might have some kind of ability or can jump to get across small gaps? -Battle portraits seem to be animated? Nice to see a fun little Team Symphonia-ish trait come back. -As said the UI doesn't seem to be structured for any kind of pairing mechanic... could be the first mainline Tales since 2009 to not have one. Crazy. -The game has a Tokugi/Ougi (Base/Arcane) ranking system. -There's an arte usage counter to improve them. -The arte they're looking at is Fire-elemental, has a burn status effect, and appears to be effective on beasts. Customizable arte tree? Yes please ^_^

Customizable arte tree?? Some sort of arte ranking system?! No pairing system!? I'm sold!
. . . Ok maybe not yet but hat sounds helluva lot better already. I hope they focus on polishing the game instead of rushing the release. Is there any news aboit the release yet? Can't remember what they've said already
Also, I noticed the Rank of the arte doesn't decide where it can be put in the tree, which debunks my initial thoughts. That sounds really fun actually. 4 buttons for artes sounds a bit excessive especially though. Is it using the arte tree on every button or are we allowed to choose?
...i'll have to dig some older articles up.

Customizable arte tree?? Some sort of arte ranking system?! No pairing system!? .. and, holy shingdang, that picture with samurai dude (http://gallery.abyssalchronicles.com/displayimage.php?album=636&pid=20322#top_display_media, sorry I'm too tired to figure out how to make it appear properly), is that the ability to have a different display character? Can we finally get people to stop complaining about that SUPER MINOR POINT? So I don't think any Team Destiny style game has had the total damage listed beneath the combo, which makes this look like whoever does the battle design for TS is back. Maybe that's the most absurd thing to take away from this, but meh, it pleases me.

It might just be me, but I can already see Rokurou and Eleanor being the Alvin/Leia, Raven/Rita relation. Something about dark haired guy with something in their past alongside a younger girl with a more hot-blooded and earnest personality seems to lend to that typical Tales of fair. I can already see them not revealing to Eleanor for a while that Rokurou has Daemonblight, and her storming away from the party until she cools her head. Your thoughts?
On the gameplay, it does look more promising than ToZ already, but I'm going to have to wait to make a positive judgment. Would rather not be burned by later information.

Hey there is nothing wrong with a little bit of optimism Although It's way easier to take the bad things when you are not expecting any good stuff to begin with. Regardless, I'm quite optimistic about this game. I MIGHT get burned hard, but hey, I could handle Zestiria, I can handle this. I'm not entirely sold on the character designs but I wasn't really a fan of Zestiria's either. I'll manage, especially if we get some cool DLC costumes. I don't mind paying some extra if we get something else than Yuri costume for Velvet.

I'm really interested in this. I really liked Zestiria(albeit, lots problems with it) and I am now on board with Berseria.
Hopefully, the mistakes in Zestiria(Skill system,Camera) are much more improved here, though, I can already see it.

Honestly, I'm very excited for Berseria. Not hyped but very happy to see that Bamco gave more care into this.
Can't say the same for Zestiria though...

Iirc they said they wanted to try something new (while returning to the roots at the same time) with Zestiria and I'm glad to see they are trying to get out of the comfort zone (if they ever even had one.) What makes me even happier is the fact that it seems that they really listened to the feedback from Zest.
Not hyped but I'm still looking forward to it.

What makes me even happier is the fact that it seems that they really listened to the feedback from Zest. Not hyped but I'm still looking forward to it. Honestly, I was glad that they went out of their way to create something new. Even though they had failures with Zesty, It was nice to see something of the developers trying, unlike many other modern day games just doing the same thing over again. I too am glad they looked at their past flaws. I think the devs already knew the camera and other crap had problems. I mean, Zestiria was being made after the start of Berseria's development(6 months?) so it makes me wonder if Zestiria was more of the "Frankenstein Experiment" than anything else. So far, Berseria is looking very good.

Rokurou looks way too much like Raven. I just can't get over it.
He's going to be a pervert, guaranteed.
