Tales of Phantasia Boss Battle ~ Origin (SNES)

[windwaker0rules]

WOW all the character look sooo different except chester.....weird

[Laurelindo]

@animegamerQ The battles are in real time, however your main character has a "base point" that he always returns to after his attacks.

This base point will either be the place where you last stopped him from running, the last point where he was attacked and hit by an enemy, or the point that you manually walked up to yourself.

The other characters can only be controlled indirectly with commands (or controlled by the AI), but you can change their positions with the Form command in the menu.

I like forcing Origin into a corner then spamming Gale Shield while Klarth rains Volt-based death on him.

[axnasia1]

The only tales games I like are TOP and Tales of Eternia. Hated both TOTA and TOS. The music is just so beautiful in TOP.

I liked GBA actually better than SNES because the "running back" was soooo annoying in this version ;)

[MegaKilt]

Aaaaaah, the red and blue particles from a defeated boss <3

[Tuuurek20]

You play it on emulator, right?

[adikkuchan]

Whoa, immediately starting off a fight with a Jigenzan!

[holykirby95]

this game is sooooo epic the SNES version can not be beat!!!

[Surlentkun]

I am currently playing ToP, never finished the game. The later dungeons are quite nice, requiring you to solve some good puzzles, I just think about Volt's Cave for instance.

The only thing I dislike is the broken sounds on ZSNES, but I don't blame the developers (as it's free, they did it with THEIR spare time). Here, it is the sound if you clash into an enemy using Phoenix. But on bsnes, it is 100%ly accurate, even the enemy dying sound in Chrono Trigger sounds perfect (play the original).

Origin looks diferent as well for Volt, more diferent from Tales of Symphonia.

[MechMaster90]

Snes Chester without techniques will always make me laugh xD

Classic game but still one of the best :3

[Zodiamaster]

@MechMaster90 he hits pretty hard though

[taeasgj]

i had this game for gba but i lost it a long time ago i beat it 3 times though where can i find another

[holykirby95]

@taeasgj snes version interwebs look it up lol

[Laurelindo]

The battles are pretty similar to Street Fighter - you control the main character manually (the others are controlled with different commands), and depending on when you press certain buttons you will deal different sorts of blows (for example, pressing Up+A will make you stab the enemy, and pressing A twice will sometimes deal critical hits).

There's also a super-cool item that lets you use any techniques you want at any time by pressing button codes. :D

[ericsigil]

Fightig the Spirits is such a hell of a damn cool music *-*

[SpiritG0d]

Its real time battle system

[Primer9]

hey this is only the 2nd game i know on snes with real time battle system, besides secret of mana.

Can you tell me some other games either on SNES or PS1 with similiar battle system?

[fanoultimatev2]

there is "Star Ocean" for SNES and have a battle system pretty similar to ToP

[Barrylocke]

Tales of... is a series, and there's 2 games on the PS1 (3 if you count the remake of ToP, which imo is superior to this version)

[fotheloveofmusic23]

i still want the psp version to bad it never came out over here

[kratosaurion24]

man,the tales games are he best

[srmoogle]

the japanese dub is far better than the english dub

even the techniques names sound cooler

[SpiritG0d]

Agreed

[aGothicStory]

its cool how much of the characters and music run through all the Tales gamesl

[Shiranai13]

lol, even the menus and interface are the same

[DeathFlea]

trapping it at the wall of the stage and using Gale Shield makes the battle way faster.

[CinnabonChan]

Did you make this version yourself?

[SpiritG0d]

Umm.. Version? I dont think so.

I am not even sure what are you talking about.

[janiekenzu]

game looks good i might get this since the batle system is somewhat like tales of destiny

[JanusHoW]

They are part of the same series, after all.

[gbahole1]

Considering destiny is after this

[Laurelindo]

@SpiritG0d I think CinnabonChan means to ask you if you recorded this video yourself. =P
