Does this mean the series is currently dead, or someone else pick up the torch and put out one hundred new terribly titled games?

Also I don't know what Kotaku did to the rest of the internet, but I'm glad to see someone else still linking to them. They were the only gaming news website I really used in the past few years, and then all of a sudden there was a crusade against them.

Edit: Just reached the final line in the article. So the Tales' Studio is dead, but Namco will probably just pump the games out under their main studio?

I also really don't like the people in the comments section talking about the series not doing good because of lack of advertising dollars. I really don't think video games need advertising in this day and age. Anyone that would want to play the Tales series knows of the Tales series - just like Suikoden and any other series like that.

Yeah, it's best to ignore any comments on the Tales series anymore, especially when most people don't seem to realize that the games don't do that well in Japan, either (well, save for Xillia, which did awesomely as far as I'm aware). Which is why they port and remake the shit out of their games.

Wait, so Namco will still produce Tales games just not via the Tales Studio? I know nothing about the company but maybe this is a good thing. Getting some new people on the project.

They've already given it to other people before. The result was Tales of Legendia, the most trite game of them all.

They should let CyberConnect2 do something with it, their animation studio alone would make it worth it (since they've never been able to not have wooden characters).

Yeah same except I havent heard of Tail Concerto. They did the Naruto fighting games which are actually extremely fun and they're working on Asuras Wrath which looks badass. I like this company.

And I agree with Legendia sucking the balls. Didn't know Tales Studio wasn't responsible for that one.

Maybe they don't sell well cause they're all basically the same game anyway.

Nobody was bitching.

It's just sad to see Wolf Team finally not being trusted to their own devices.
