    With the DLC expansion on the horizon, now's a great time to play this game. As a casual fan of this series, I can safely say that this game is absolutely worth the money, even more so now the the price has gone down.

    This is one of the most beautiful games out right now. Essentially there are two different stories. The first story is pretty engaging. But I was not willing to continue. Some of the major complaints is that the humor of the game is gone and that is very true. This is a very serious game. The voice acting however is phenomenal.

    If you’re a fan of Tales games- this is a must-play! Graphics are great, voice overs are funny.

    Voice acting is fine. Unfortunately the game is a little slow. It looks great, but the combat system is leaving a bit to be desired for me

    This game has really great graphics and fun gameplay. If you couldnt get into past tales games this is a good one to get into. The combat feels great and the graphics are a huge step up from most anime style games. Definitely recommend.

    This was a good Tales entry. Good enough that I took the time to 1000 the achievement list. I recommend it if you like the style of gameplay.

    This is the Tales game I’ve always wanted, not only that it’s the RPG I’ve always wanted. It has a great story, amazing combat, a beautiful world, extras like crafting and cooking. This is up there in my top 3 JRPGs of all time, and already in my top 10 games of all time. If you like JRPGs then this is a must buy.

    This is the third Tales title I've played and definitely my favorite of those that I have. There's some criticism I've seen of the decision to use UE4, but in my opinion they did a great job and the game's environments are gorgeous. The gameplay is completely revamped and it works very well once you get the hang of it. On top of that, you can control any of the party members at any time, so it's a good idea to play around with them and see which character suits your gameplay style best. Between a very thorough first play through and a second NG+ playthrough, I've gotten just shy of 100 fun hours out of the game. Definitely worth checking out if you're a Tales or JRPG fan.

    The battle mechanics are fun, easy, and fast paced. The graphics look great. It has stylistic look to it. The story is interesting. The voice acting can be a little over the top at times, but overall the story doesn't suffer.

    I don't usually finish RPGs but I put about 150 hours into this game and I have to say it's one of the best games I've ever played. The characters are awesome and the gameplay is just amazing. I loved the graphics on this on my Xbox
