Tales of Graces: Difference between revisions

Though the game was scored highly by critical publications, ''Graces'' was criticised by some for having a number of bugs, some of which [[Game Breaking Bug|made it impossible to continue playing the game]]. As the Wii does not allow easy patching, Namco Bandai announced a recall and free disc swap (via mail) to anyone who had already bought the game.

 

 

''Tales of Graces F'' was released in North America in March 2012, [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|with an European release confirmed for later in 2012]].

* [[Boom Stick]]: Pascal's [[Weapon of Choice]].

* [[Bonus Boss]]: Where to even start?! There's all the bosses of the [[Bonus Dungeon|Zhonecage]], including the traditional ''[[Tales (series)]]'' cameo battles, and the three legendary dragons you have to beat to unlock Floor 10. Then there's the final boss of the Zhonecage, {{spoiler|Solomos}}. Beat him, and the [[Final Boss]] of the normal story gets [[True Final Boss|a new name and a huge stat-boost]]. Rockgagan takes up half the screen, comes with a twenty-minute time limit, disables Blast Calibers and is generally so tough that most players use a cheap [[One-Hit Kill]] method. ''Tales of Graces f'' not only adds more bonus bosses (such as {{spoiler|Poisson}}) but buffs the existing bonus bosses by doing things like, oh, giving {{spoiler|Solomos}} a second Blast Caliber that he can use to counter any item usage if he's under 5% health.

* [[The Cameo]]: {{spoiler|[[Tales of Rebirth|Veigue]], [[Tales of Hearts|Amber]], and [[Tales of Destiny|Reala]]}}

** Three costumes based on [[Tales of Vesperia]] characters' outfits - Asbel gets Yuri, Sophie gets Patty, and Cheria gets Rita.

* [[Dirty Coward]]: Raymond Oswell. What does he do when he's caught by his superior? {{spoiler|Attempt to kill himself.}}

* [[Distressed Damsel]]: Happens to Cheria, ''once''. Briefly.

* [[Dynamic Loading]]: The game loads the battles before you actually get into them, so the transition between the overworld/dungeon and a battle is usually less than ''half a second''. This is most noticeable when enemies respawn when using a Dark Bottle. Though the enemies respawn on the map almost instantly, you can't actually fight them until they're completely filled in.

* [[Easy Mode Mockery]]: Playing through the game on Easy lets you progress through the story as normal, but you won't earn any bonus experience for your levels or your titles. There's also no trophy for completing the game on Easy.

* [[Trailers Always Spoil]]: The TGS Trailer has spoiled that {{spoiler|Cornell was killed and betrayed by his own and not to mention even some part of the ending scene}}

** Irritatingly, a spoiler can be found on the first page of the game's instruction manual. It features artwork with {{spoiler|Asbel drawn with the plot relevant [[Mismatched Eyes]].}}

* [[True Final Boss]]: {{spoiler|The Fodra Queen becomes this, making Lambda a [[Climax Boss]].}}

** Also, as mentioned above, {{spoiler|defeating [[Bonus Boss|Solomos]] gives Lambda Angelus a power boost and renames him to Lambda Theos}}
