![]() With introductions out of the way, let's begin. Abyss' final dungeon music was awesome), but let's just get out of here as soon as possible. I won't make any excuses for this dungeon, because by no measure is it great or even fun (not even good music behind it. Well, obviously two main gimmicks here: the fake bridges that vanish as soon as you get to them, and all the inky miasma making things a purple haze (not all in my brain), that makes it hard to see where you're going, and hard to dodge enemies. And that work continues with the latest Tales game, Berseria. None other than ufotable, the very same ufotable that's been more or less the animating brains behind the entire Tales series since Xillia 1, which also includes another Tales anime: Tales of Zestiria the X. Oh, and just to prove The Eternal Circle is real, you know who the production studio was behind the Symphonia anime? That's right. Symphonia's end game was very odd, in general (I thought the anime's ending was superior in terms of not having so much padding that really didn't add anything in particular to the story. Exploring was entirely optional, but it still worked out, I think. But the weirdest, I think, of all the final dungeons was Symphonia's, because literally the only thing you needed to do was defeat a really easy boss, get the key he drops, and open the final door. Some games (like Phantasia and Abyss), have really good final dungeons, whereas other games (like both Symphonia games), have had not-so-great final dungeons. Now, Tales games have kind of checkered history when it comes to final dungeons. What's the term for this dungeon? Oh yes, annoying as shit. The Four's saying, "Cats can come along for free". But, we have our party, and let's see our result. There are endless permutations, and I'm not nuts enough to record or know all the possible combinations. Note, however, that the final cutscenes once we reach the end of Canaan are considerably different in terms of dialogue depending on who is in your party / who you chose first. It took me a while, but I eventually ended up with a party of Gaius, Milla, and Elize. ![]() Well, actually, before recording this part, I determined via a complicated coin flipping tournament whereby different characters played against each other to make my decision for me. Though, I think Gaius goes without saying. Just in case you were thinking otherwise, here's a friendly reminder: You leave me behind, and I will end you. I'm all fired up and ready to roll! Let's do this! There's only one thing an old man fears: Getting left behind! ![]() Gonna put met to work, huh? You can bet I'll get the job done! For Elle, too! I'm going with you-to the Great Spirit of Origin! Ludger, I'll stick with you until the very end! I'm with you to the ends of the earth, if that's what you wish. Let's see the case everyone has to make for me taking them. There is also a kitty you can get from Kitty Dispatch.īut enough of this. This cat must have had quite the journey to end up from a crazy cat lady's apartment to The Promised Land, the fabled Land of Canaan. If each of the Four Great Spirits could shield one of us, we'd be able to move forward without weakening. We'd deplete our strength and be useless in the battle to come. Muzet and I could charge forward and dispel Chronos' power. It's hard enough to see straight in this funhouse, let alone fight. Yes, he's probably warping the space around us.Ĭreating tricks of light. The orb reveals that section of bridge is, in fact, not there. Might as well see what our options are here. And we're supposed to just hold our noses and charge through it?Įven though it's powerful, I doubt the Chromatus is going to help matters here. Usually, Origin should be keeping it under control. ![]() Miasma is expelled as souls pass through the cycle of reincarnation. Isn't it only supposed to be produced if soul purification stops? Although it might even kill Milla and me if we linger too long. Don't worry, though: as soon as you regain control inside of Canaan, you can leave and run off to do what you want, especially resupply, if needed. Well, when you're ready, time to enter the final dungeon and wrap this long story up. Part 34: The Man Who Concludes Part XXXIV: The Man Who Concludes
