Should there be a third game?
  Yes, I can't get enough Symphonia!
  Yes, it would be nice to see one more Symphonia
  Yes, but I think any more would just be too much
  No, i've had enough Symphonia to last a lifetime
  No, two was plenty
  No, there shouldn't have even been a second
  Eh, I couldn't care less

The idea of a prequel is indeed charming.
Kratos said Mithos was once his apprentice, so why did he decide to follow him instead? And how the hell was it that they split the world in two? I'd like to see that.

Does it mean seeing the end of the Kharlan War and what really happened with the future Seraphim?
Because if so...heck yes.

Not to mention, we'd get to have Kratos THE ENTIRE TIME.
And what could be better than that.

Personally, I would like to see them make a game to explain how Tales of Phantasia even happens after DotNW.
For anyone not familiar with Tales of Phantasia, it was the first Tales of game ever, and it's based in the same world as Symphonia, but 4202 or so years in the future. If I recall correctly, in DotNW, Ratatosk says basically that he will rewrite the rules of the world or whatever, so there won't be any mana in the world. If he does do that, how did the storyline in Phantasia even happen? The
enrire plot line revolves mana!
Either that, or a game about the Kharlan War. Having Kratos the entire game sounds nice~

I thought Ratatosk said he rewrote the laws of nature so that mana wouldn't be needed for life, meaning that mana would still exist but living things would have no need for it. This is observed in the event of the Mana Cannon's firing in Phantasia:

Quote:
Finally, Dhaos declares open warfare against Midgards, initiating the Valhalla War with the intent to destroy Midgards completely in order to attain his goal. Unfortunately, the kingdom had been improving their magitechnology-based weapons, which proved to be an anathema against the demons, and at the onset of the Battle on the Valhalla Plains, Reisen unveils Aselia's own Mana Cannon, shooting it at Dhaos's army twice before the device malfunctions and explodes. Identical to what had happened on Derris-Kharlan, the blasts consumed massive amounts of mana, causing Yggdrasill and the Summon Spirits of Aselia to die, while also eliminating magic from the world. However, the world's flora and fauna continue to survive normally, as if they are unaffected directly by the loss of mana, due to a change made to the world thousands of years prior (Dawn of the New World) so that all living things could survive without mana.

(Source)

That reminds me, I was looking through the Aselia Timeline before chancing upon this information, and I remember being curious about the time of the Ragnarok War, mentioned in the linked article and during the time the party was in Thor in Phantasia. Now there's something I'd also like to see a game about. biggrin

And maybe if you have your own ideas for a third game or how the second game could have been better, share that as well.


I noticed this just now and would like to provide my two cents. o3o I think it could have been better simply by allowing Lloyd and co. to level up with Emil and Marta. I remember reading somewhere that the devs were worried about that making players ignore the monster-raising system and that's why they put the level caps on the characters. In which case, rather than doing that, they could've just added some sidequests (in addition to the Katz Guild quests) and such that require only the monsters you've raised.

I wouldn't mind seeing what becomes of everyone after Dawn of the New World. I know many fans didn't count it as a sequel but aside the disappointing changes in voice acting, I really didn't mind it. Well, that and it was too short in my opinion...

Either that or, I do like the idea of a prequel. Maybe following Kratos' life, so we get to see what happened back in the days of Mithos and Martel up to the point where he meets Anna and when Lloyd is born. I think following Kratos' point of view would make for a really good game, and I'm sure it would be pretty moving as well.

Daddy Kratos~! whee That's too cute to think about! 4laugh


There's a boatload of oyako fanfiction just waiting to be read by people like you. X3 Daddy Kratos galore.

Now, my opinion on this... I would love a 3rd game, but I think it'd be nicer to see a prequel than another 'afters' game. Sure I love Dawn, but making another deep and dark threat for the 2nd gen would be going overkill, wouldn't ya say? The sequel had a good base, let's not ruin it.

A game to end the Kharlan War, however...now that would rock my socks clean off. I want to see how the first group met, how they became who they are, and what Mithos used to be like. I don't really want to see Martel die, but...it is necessary.

Actually, if you read about Kratos on the Aselia Wiki, it tells you how he met Yuan, Mithos, and Martel.

A prequel with Kratos and Mithos sounds like the way to go, there isn't really much to be added just after Dawn [and too much futher ahead and there isn't much point calling it ToS]

I would personally like to see all of these nations (such as Thor) mentioned in Tales of Phantasia. However, that would probably just be in Phantasia territory, yeah.

I've already read quite a few! I love thinking of Lloyd as a baby (so cute!) And Kratos as a daddy. I wish we could for sure know what Lloyd's mother looked like though. I mean for crying out loud! She's his mom! Without her, he wouldn't exist! Not to mention everything she went through and did for Lloyd!

Dang it GIVE ANNA HER FIVE SECOND SPOTLIGHT!

*ahem* Okay my rant is over. xD

**edit: Unless there is an official artwork of Anna I don't know about...? No harm in asking I suppose.

It does offer some tasty tidbits, but there's also plenty that's not there. Not to mention, it'd be so exciting to actually see and experience it.

The best, in my opinion, are written by my friend Freakyanimegal. Especially her story "Daddy Dearest". 8D Cutest. Story. Ever. Also full of plenty of heartwrenching tension, she's good at that.

I know! She's not ignored by the fandom by any means, but the game sure had her in the background. I NEED TO SEE WHAT SHE WAS LIKE!!

-laughs and shakes head- I'm afraid not, all that's for sure is that Lloyd got her hair and eye color (so boo on the authors who keep giving her green eyes) and that her hair was short. A bit above her shoulders, judging by her 3 seconds in the United World Episodes opening.

Ohhh I should check her out on there. I don't remember the United Worlds opening. I've been super busy as of late so I haven't had much time. But when I get a chance I'mma look her up again <3

I would love to see a prequel. I honestly would like to see it from Kratos' view. Now that would be fun .
