Tales of Symphonia takes place in a fictional world called Sylvarant and follows Lloyd Irving. Lloyd accompanies his childhood friend, Colette Brunel, who is destined to go on a journey to save their world. As their journey progresses, they learn that saving Sylvarant endangers Tethe'alla, a world parallel to their own. This incredible story would benefit so much from being adapted into a tv series, and thus made accessible to more audiences who don’t play video games. A guy can dream! Here’s my fancast. Anyone else is more than welcome to chip in. Given that this game’s story places heavy emphasis on accepting others and embracing their differences, I think it’s only fitting to have a diverse cast, representing different ethnicities and sexual orientations. Anyone who complains about “woke casting” clearly misses the point of the game.
