A somewhat rough start belies one of the best Tales games ever made; arguably the turning point when the series shifted from Action RPG to Character Action with Numbers. Fantastic cast of characters and performances (in both languages), a great (though unfortunately quite unfocused) story, and beautiful visuals and music compliment a fun and in-depth combat system that keeps getting more complex almost all the way through the end of the game, with plenty of difficult side and endgame content to flex on once you've mastered it.

2nd Gayest game in the series after Zestiria
