As someone who only tried the PSP to PC port years ago, and someone who never got into the series (not something you can exactly dive into), I highly recommend :D It feels a lot like the Ys games and it's a lot of fun :P

Absolutely recommended, it feels new and nostalgic at the same time, using the Creation Engine on top of UE5 is interesting but works well. Original hilarious 2006 jank with the NPCs, music, it's all here and runs well with a few engine.ini tweaks

So happy to see this no longer locked to the PS5, one of SE's better PC ports and little to no shader compilation stuttering :D

Never played this on the PS3, but now we have the definitive way to play it. This is the proper way to remaster a Tales game in 2025, highly recommended :D

So far so good :D If anyone has doubts after playing the demo, believe me, this is way better and runs much smoother too, not to mention a pretty good port :P Runs flawlessly at 1440p 120 FPS on my aging Core i7 9700K with RTX 4070 (not aging so much lol), highly recommended!

A fantastic RPG set in the Monster Hunter universe, very relaxing game and good for those who can't stand the tiring gameplay loop of the mainline MH series that never has an endgame and no real story to speak of :D

Yes, the games are good, and I'm glad to see it on Steam for once. However, the current state of the port is rife with niggling issues that should have been resolved, instead of changing a few lines of code to get it Steam Deck compatible and call it a day. Yes, I admit that's cynical, but it's ridiculous that Square Enix doesn't fix the framepacing issues, crackling audio, sluggish feel at 60 or 120 fps with juddering left and right. I can't in good conscious recommend this port in its current state, despite the games themselves being quite good. Wait until it gets fixed :D

Initially, I had to refund this as there were many glaring emulation issues, esp with audio/video sync, it was broken on PC and causing microstutters. MVG of Limited Run Games himself addressed the issue and was able to fix all performance issues on PC/Steam Deck. At the time of writing, 60 fps is locked, no audio crackling, and looks glorious on an OLED display :D

An excellent port from Nixxes and Guerrilla Games, which is a nice change of pace compared to many other poor PC launches. Love the setting and runs pretty darn well on my rig, so no major complaints :D I will say for NVidia users, disable Resize BAR and DLSS FG if you want to remove stuttering until a patch is released.

Absolutely recommended, it takes what made the first game great, but up to eleven, while also fixing many of the issues I had with the first game. Take that, and being an RPG while making fun of the JRPG tropes, I love it :D
