I just got Tales of Symphonia for my GameCube! Its a good game but the problem is the story. I just started the game and I'm lost! I think its about that there was this great tree that has all the mana. I think mana is what exists in the world like its part of it. During a war the tree was destroted a hero gave up his life to make it survive. And this goddess was so sad that she went to sleep and she said that you have to wake me up or the world will be destroyed. So there is a Chosen who has to go on a journey of regerneration and has to become an angel to wake up the goddes. Is that how it is? If thats not the story can you explain it for me? Also tell me anything I should now about the game. Like how to do Ougis and stuff.
If I remember right the story is that there existed a tree that supplied the world with mana. But then a war occured and caused the tree to die. I forgot why the goddess is asleep. But rest you got right. The story starts to get clearer the more you get into the game.
Ougis? O-o Let's see....yeah pretty much you got the story, but there's a lot more to it as you continue the game. Just keep on continuing the game. Tales of Symphonia FTW!
Ok. Right know my favourite character is Kratos. I wonder why he wants to go on the journey? Is it just because he got paid or is something else? right know i am at the place where you escaped from the desians base and you meet up with the others. (in the dessert)So bascally they have to go to the heavens to awake the goddess hmm... So mana is what really is part of the world. But why is that just because a goddess is a asleep the world is going to die? Is have to do with mana? What is mana anyway Ougis are the speacial attacks! (like you know how in tales of the abyss and you go into overlimit and use mystic art. those are ougis) How do you go into overlimit any in TOS?
uh....I don't think they have Ougis. What happens when you're in overlimit (which I'm not 100% sure how it occurs) is that you get powered up and can't flinch. well...maybe there are ougis in ToS, but it's only in the PS2 version. Mana is well, like the "life force" of the world. Almost like the life stream in FFVII.
ok then. What I really hate about the tales sereis well maybe in every RPG is the story. Its to complicated! Like I know the story on TOS. Its about this Goddess (who is the Goddes for Sylvrant right? I think that what th e world is called.what is her name anyway) fell into sleep because this warrior died to bring back the great tree. So she said you have to wake me up or world well be destroyed because of depletion on Mana right? so there a chosen one who has to become an angel by opening these seals and wake her up. I know there is gotta be more to the story like why is Desians are trying to stop her and stuff. I know probably have to re-play this game to understand the story. "sigh" So is there a collisum in this game to? Like I have tales of the abyss and there is always a team of mix of characters from other tales games. Is there a team in this one to? Also just double-checking I got the story right? Also i am at these desert ruins where the first seal is. Also do you figure out why Desians aree trying to stop Collette. There is also why there after Lyoids Exsphere and why was the blue haired guy said "I see the resemblence". I know if all this wil be answered if I just continue the game. Anyway see ya later thanks for the help.
