The journey is to track down the "would-be" hero from the first game to answer for his crimes. Its story casts Lloyd as the antagonist, responsible for the destruction of Emil's hometown of Palmacosta. Dawn of the New World has a slightly less tugging of the heartstrings, mostly because the split personality of Emil, shifting from timid to aggressive, is just plain annoying. However, it is a well scripted plot and the characters are amicable enough that you'll likely shed a tear or two through the dozens of hours it could take to finish.
Betrayal and intervention from higher powers follow you around the adventure, and there are very few surprises.
#TALES OF SYMPHONIA CHRONICLES PKOT FULL#
The overall storyline is one full of clichés, with our Tales of Symphonia hero Lloyd joining friends to save the world and avenge the death of his mother at the hands of the evil Desian organization. It's a good value for a great series, but buy it for the gameplay, not the HD upgrade, as the visuals are more a touch-up than an overhaul. The PS3 compilation entitled Tales of Symphonia Chronicles bundles the two games together, adding high-definition graphics, trophies, and additional content. The original Tales of Symphonia was released for the GameCube, and its sequel, Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World for the Nintendo Wii. Tales of Symphonia Chronicles is one of those stand outs, bringing arguably Namco Bandai's greatest Tales series to a North American PlayStation audience that has been left in the dark until now. HD revivals appear now and then, with some definitely standing out among the crowd. Sony seems to be under the impression that the JRPG genre is a cow that can be endlessly milked, as PlayStation consoles are continually littered with them.
