Great game, great gameplay, lots of customization, interesting story, great characters. One of the best Tales yet.
The story (so far) in Tales is very interesting, it's good enough that I want it to keep going, but the best is the fact that I like the characters. All the skits really flesh out their personality, and we slowly learn their goals and motives.
The gameplay is also excellent. At first I thought the combat was slow and chaining attacks was bad, with recovery times, but after playing a bit more I realized that it is part of the gameplay, it's not a flaw but a design choice. There are multiple skills that can help you customize your fighting abilities in order to remove recovery periods etc. being able to choose abilities that modify the gameplay itself is great.
The music is also excellent, and the graphics are nice and fit the style of the Tales serie well.
I think it's a must-play for any RPG fan, mostly if you liked any other Tales game.
