Tales of Graces f Remastered Review
There’s a really specific sort of nostalgia that hits me like a truck whenever the Tales series is mentioned. I grew up hovering around this series of JRPGs, but never playing them. Other series like Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy caught my attention, but I would still spot Tales in the periphery. The series seemingly spawning a new mainline entry almost every year, combined with me hardly following news of the franchise, led to this sort of awe I would experience whenever I continuously discovered more and more Tales games that I had no idea even existed. As I’ve gotten older and started digging deeper into games and series I never gave a shot earlier in life, I’m finally getting around to playing a lot of these Tales games that only existed as ideas and myths to me. Tales of Graces f was one such myth – a Wii game I barely knew existed, which became a PS3 game I downloaded but never touched, and finally, it arrives in my life for the third time as a massively remastered and polished multi-platform re-release. And with this kind of care and quality, I’m hoping every entry in the series can eventually re-materialize in my life this way.
