A very informative and concise read.

I'm sure if another publisher picked up the localization that they would do their best to stick to its roots.

True, although that would require both parties working together in sync. Not saying it can't be done but it takes effort.

Sanrin5036d ago

Very nice read, makes me upset we don't get more tales games around here.

Keep in mind they said they aren't planning to bring over the "series". That sounds like any future Tales titles are up in the air at the moment, let's hope they change their minds.

"Let Me Solo Her" Receives A Special Award From Namco Bandai For His 1000th Victory Against Malenia

Immersed Gamer writes: "Let Me Solo Her is a legendary Elden Ring player who mastered one of the most infamous bosses to help his fellow tarnished via co-op. And for his service, he received an award from Namco Bandai to commemorate his 1,000th victory. The reward in question is a real, and extremely dope, custom-made sword.

Malenia is regarded as the hardest boss in Elden Ring, and the relentless Tarnished has defended literally thousands of hosts against this malice. Let Me Solo Her apparently passed 2,000 Malenia kills a while back, but it’s hard to measure the exact count he is at now. Bandai Namco sent the gift his way when he was at around 1,000 kills. But due to the nature of the object, it got stuck in customs for a while!"

Are you Okay??? The thumb is from Tekken Tag Tournament 2.

At least it's the right franchise

TTT is one of my all time favorite games, but I always found its soundtrack to be terrible. I'd mute the music and put my own on.
