I'm laying on my bed right now, in the dark. Right when this song started my cat sat up, staring at me, and all I could see was a faint yellow glow from his eyes from over my laptop screen. It freaked me out, and the intro to this song definitely didn't help. XD
i don't know of you have experimented something like me: i fought with van in the hardest level, and he gave mne 160 grades, it was the battle not only in the tales of series but in my life as a gamer, to feel the music and the terror to fight with such opponent, i won, but at the cost of the life of every character in my team (jade, tear, anise and luke), but in the end, it was just van and luke, how i won?, it was epic, man, the battle in my life!
I beat Van here with the weakest weapons possible for everyone.
Luke had Nebelim at its weakest.
Guy had the wooden sword.
Ansie had a rod
Tear had the strongest out of everyone, but she was busy healing so she didnt count, but the battle was intense! It took 42 minutes and got me over 52 grade!
I did go on a 3rd playthrough. Boy, I forgot how much fun the epic boss fights are on unknown. I'm making a separate saveslot so I can keep refighting nebilim, replicantis and the cameos, those battles are amazing!
lawl agreed neblim on unkown is RLY something ima beet er up solo on either vry hard or unkown(probably unkown) also her mystic artes are RLY something
agreed i played the game and it tok me 35 minutes to beet him on unkown (why 35 minutes?????) so that i can enjoy the battle theme while hearing his I'LL DESTROY (he doesnt say you) IMPERIAL SLAUGHTER
The first time I fought Van on my second playthrough, in the middle of the fight, both Luke and Van used Frigid Blast on eachother at the same time. It was awesome! XD
Well, it sounds real, and it doesn't mean all of it's synth. Some of it may be. The guitar has to be real. There's no guitar synth THAT good sounding.
really now, BNecause I haven't seen his name once yet... maybe I ought to bother completeing the Emissary... I have every character bar Wolf, without going through the SSE
never at this time, but if they add a tales character to a future SSB game, he might have one on it.... Hoping for either Luke, Cress, Lloyd, Kratos, or Emil if they do decide to add one...
Then It'd be another 3rd party character, I could at least understand, Lloyd maybe at most. but tales of vrs handles all of that. Now issac or felix from golden sun should've been playable.
Yeah, all they did was give an Issac Assist Trophy that used the Psynergy 'Move'. It'd be a lot better if they had Felix using the Weapon Howl Megiddo (Sol Blade) >:D
Van sure is something,i just got up to him on mine. i got the game a few weeks ago and i just beat van.he was hard on hard mode but fun to fight. i thoughtthe game was gonna end and it seems he survived.
Oh crap... WTF did I do. Ahem, dude over there didn't say anything of spam. I accidentally pressed spam. XD Sorry! Anywayz, yeah it's the same composer.
It's because of his bears, his source of power! and don't forget his eyebrows which shoot hypno-rays!(this wierd thing comes from a certain skit, so TOA players should probably know about this)
THIS is the greatest song in the game. xD
