Huge strong main cast made up of many people from the last eight games in the series. Towns full of characters you've come to know, so while you may be revisiting most of the locations your frequently running into scenes with old supporting characters. Improved bonding events fleshing out the backstories and giving closure to your friends pasts/futures. Combat works well. Still has a fast forward button.
Major war mobilization and evil curse and I think we are in negative casualties. Way too much dumb anime shit, probably near dozens of uses of people always watching from afar saying things like, "Now we will see how you fare in this new test," "I suppose I shall let you pass, for now," "Yes, your power has grown, but it is not yet time to appear on this stage." Poor cutscene animations that have been with the series the entire time but still seeming like they would have to try to do such a poor job. Some of the old supporting characters have joined a world ending genocidal war just because they were in the military and it would be rude if they left, kind of killing any positive elements of their characters to any rational person. Main antagonists are mostly a bunch of uninteresting losers that you have been fighting for four games. Nonsensical DBZ style power levels where you can fight the most powerful things in existence only to later be held up by some random nobodies, and frequently has you in scenes where you would be fighting people 7-19 on 1-3 and the game constantly makes mention of that. "If we didn't outnumber you 14-2 I don't know if we could have won." Sometimes followed by a scene/battle where one person then beats them or an even stronger character.
Still has a terrible card game and a less relevant cooking system than the Tales series. Gets overly obsessed with boobs at some points.
