A case study of Regal Bryant casts Kratos Aurion in a new light and shows how Tales of Symphonia's relationship system informs its story.

I stumbled upon a well-written opinon piece from a fan-created weekly series called “Tales of Praxis”. In this edition, Aaron Suduiko (writer) analyzes his revisit of Tales of Symphonia shortly after the Remaster launched in 2023.

The writer discusses the character arcs, compares his experiences to that of his nostalgic time first playing the game as a child, and thoroughly dissects the relationship of Regal Bryant (character in Tales of Symphonia).

Spoiler warning! This article will reveal immediate game spoilers. Yes, Tales of Symphonia is over 20 years, but if it’s in your backlog to play because you heard of its legacy, do not read this article.
