The thread can be found in the archives here I mentioned I did a previous LP of Tales of Symphonia, and you can find it here. Tales of the Tempest (which I haven't had the "fortune" to play) is particularly legendary for being moved from the Mothership (main) category into the Escort category for being so goddamn bad. Dawn of the New World is considered an Escort Title by Tales Studio, which generally means "side story or weak sequel" and also "not as good". The whole thing is like a giant Tales of Symphonia self-insert Fanfic that ended up being published by Namco-Bandai. Its plot is the primary cause of this, and it's not just the low quality. Namco-Bandai fuckery aside, Dawn of the New World annoys the hell out of me. In honor of Tales of Graces' impending localization, this is now merely an acerbic LP.

At the end of my Symphonia LP I mentioned I'd do a Dawn of the New World LP, and here it is! In honor of Namco-Bandai's "No Tales for you baka Gaijin" policy and the extreme likelihood this will be the last Tales title in English this will be an "angry" LP. Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World is the sequel to the (in my opinion at least) pretty cool Tales of Symphonia. Introduction They say you should only LP a game you love, or a game you hate.
