"Tell me. Why is it that birds fly?"

Tales games have always been treated as RPG comfort food. That isn't necessarily an incorrect way to describe them. A fun, deep combat system, wonderful characters and rich settings have made Tales games so popular. Berseria is no different, yet, it offers characters who are morally ambiguous, but you can't help but love, a story of revenge and trauma that you have to keep going through. And once it was all done for me, I had to let out a breath of relief and resignation. For so long these characters were in my head, and now their story is over, and what a story it was. Play this one. It's fantastic.

Note: Despite being the inferior game, Tales of Zestiria is connected to Berseria, both take place in the same world 1000 years apart. I recommend playing Zestiria first, it's not the greatest, but still pretty good, and then play Berseria. You get to see so many cool implications and connections between the two by playing them in this order. I recommend doing so.
