Tales of Symphonia 3? Yes, no, maybe so?

[Sirea Angelie]

I dunno about another sequel, but I wouldn't mind there being like a prequel game that focuses on the Kharlan War. It kinda bothers me that you don't really see who it was that killed Martel aside from the fact it was a human that did it.

Though if yet another sequel were to be made, I would give Symphonia the title of being the "Final Fantasy 7" of the Tales Series. xd  

[Fallen Prince of LaRin]

I agree with Sirea. There definately needs to be a Kharlan War prequel. I want to know who killed Martel, too. But, I also want to play as Mithos so I can make the pacts with him. And, be satisfied with splitting the world in two....  

[Sirea Angelie]

That would also leave the question on who's point of view we would be looking at if a prequel were to be made. In Symphonia, the story focuses on Colette's journey yet the game is played through Lloyd's point of view.  

[Fallen Prince of LaRin]

That's true....I think it would be Mithos' perspective, if they made it. Since he is the one who formed the pacts and weilded the Eternal Sword.

No, honestly ive had my fill of Symphonia's universe, it would be beating a dead horse. emotion_donotwant

(I didn't want Dawn of the New World either to be honest.)

I see Martel as more of a healer rather than a mage.

Finally, do you think Martel would be a Mage or a Healer? I see her as a Healer.

Healer or hybrid, probably.  

[Azura Cantarella]

Yeah, I think enough has been done with the world of Aselia. I just feel like there isn't anything more to cover. As for what might've happened after Dawn of the New World, I feel it's just best left to fan imaginings.

If anything, I just want a port of Tales of Symphonia to the 3DS with the additional content that the Japan-only PS2 version got! I think the added content to the Niflheim sidequest would explain a little better the tie-in with Dawn of the New World.

But I agree that there ought to be a prequel. o: I also think it would be from Mithos' point of view.

I think Martel would mainly be a healer. I see her having an arte setup similar to Raine, really. Mithos could be a magic swordsman, but I think his arte setup would tip more into a mage style. That is, he would have more spells than sword artes in his repertoire. I think he started as a mage and then was later taught swordsmanship by Kratos.

I forget, was Botta part of the group or was he just someone that ended up working with Yuan after the fact?

Botta would be the latter. If he were part of the Kharlan group, I think he would've been more prominent than he was in ToS.

Korsall Kaiser

Personally, I really want to know the pact he made with Volt that he broke that got Volt so damn pissed.

Oh, I thought the pact involved Mithos' vow to make the world better for everyone. Then when he snapped after Martel's death and split the worlds, that's what pissed Volt off.

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.  

[Magical Maiden]

Oh man, do I so want a 3DS port with the Japan only content. If only...

As for a ToS 3, it would be a neat idea to have a prequel, but at the same time no because besides that...... there's not much you can cover, really.
