Tales of the Ocean: Areck's Skill Exhibition

[guitarrvid]

YEP Areck skills so cool that you put skill from another game like TOP ^^ LOVE IT and areck so cool hehe

and again can you tell me the name of the song?? lol

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

Thank you very much.

If I remember rightly, the music is "Multi-Man Melee 1" from Super Smash Bros. Melee.

[Khiash]

The Tiger Blade string of attacks seem to deal an unnecessarily large amount of damage (1.5k for basic Tiger Blade, yet Demonic Tempest did a lousy 600) unless that's like his signature move or something? I haven't played toto so I wouldn't know.

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

Tiger Blade is meant to cause additional damage against enemies on land. Since Barbatos is grounded, that means he'd take extra damage.

The Tempest line does more damage to airborne foes, so they would have hit for more on the birds.

[Khiash]

Aha, I see. Thank you for clearing that up

[MrSuperdude014]

these are like all the same atks from tos...

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

Well, it's a fan-made Tales game, so of course I had to make some kind of nostalgic nod to the official series.

And to answer your question on the other vid, no it's not a part of the official series. It's just a fangame I'm making in tribute to my favourite series.

[nooby197]

ah.... i wish u used the original zelos sprite... but this is cool too!

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

Lol. Well, the original Zelos sprite didn't have many frames for the attacks I wanted to create, and I also didn't want to just use recolours, so I had to go with something else. blacklisted made the sprite and frankly I love it. =3

[helldrag0n47]

Did u edit that from Lloyd? BTW dun worry about the sword edges, its nearly IMPOSSIBLE to get them on the battlefield without getting em cut off.

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

I didn't, no. My friend blacklisted did. She's just about the greatest spriter in the world.

[nrsisyourbuddy]

You could use battle animations to avoid cutting the ends off.

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

I think you might be onto something there. I'll give it a try.

[nrsisyourbuddy]

I hope it turns out good, Tales of the Ocean is my favorite tales fangame out there, and that would make it so much better. It's also better for voice acting :P

[Lonewulf321]

The only thing that needs fixing are his swords. They are cut-off on the tips(I'm sure you knew that though.)

Awesome game!

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

Ah, thanks man. I appreciate your compliment.

[Lonewulf321]

No Problem. Continue making the game, all of your fans appreciate you spending time to make it.

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

Ah, it makes me glad to hear that. Okay! I'll have the new demo up by this week! And a new vid soon! Effort-doubling time!

[Kaithepkk]

those were awesome skills they brought back memories form some of tales games and arecks awesome

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

Thanks, mate. :D

[puppetmastersasori]

Awesome skills as always :D

Can't wait for the other characters' exhibitions!

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

Hell yes. There're so much better than FF IMO. Especially Abyss. I imported it. It was friggin' excellent. Jade Curtiss is my idol. :p

[eragonlovermax]

So you decided to make Areck a dual-wielder swordsman? Nice choice! But I have a few problems with your skill set for Kapiru. Kapiru is an ice nethist, so why is he a spell caster? Shouldn't he just have ice? I mean, he has earth neth, as long with a lot of other types, and it gets confusing sometimes. But I still love TotO and will download it myself, even though I am following your vids.

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

Ah. As for Kapiru, his skillset got changed a lot but now I've fixed it on a definite. Ocean has the elements of Light, Water, Wind, Earth, Fire and Shadow now.

The truth is, the final party of Ocean is made up of six people. Three melee (Sema, Areck, Hisham) one healer (Lani) and then the other two would have to be mages, so I split the six elemental magics between Kapiru and the other character, kind of like Reala/Harold partially split the elements in Tales of Destiny 2.

[eragonlovermax]

Wait, aren't Sema or that nethist of life (Damn, can't remember her name) healers? Sema was the town healer, and the nethist of life...well...isn't it obvious she's a healer??? I have to admit, there are certainly flaws in your design of the game, but this could turn into an actual game if you got some help and worked on the plan of the game some more, it could be a good game for the advance or DS... If you have a hope to be a video game designer, go for it, you have the storyline down good...

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

Felspar, the Nethist of Life, does not join the party and there are no plans to make her do so. Sema's actual healing powers have not featured in a while, and the reason for that will be explained later.

Also, the various elements Kapiru and the other mage will have tie into their main powers (eg: Kapiru's Water & Wind spells let him use Ice Tornado), so it's not just decided randomly.

[eragonlovermax]

oh, okay.

[eragonlovermax]

and that is the most important part, and if this IS made into a game for a system, expect me to buy it :D

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

Ah, I'm honoured to have fans like yourself.

I appreciate the comment!
