Really liking Vesperia. Controls are a little outdated, might just be that I'm used to button spamming but still going strong. Hype for Arise is still real.
I'm getting a long quite nicely but the nice weather has me outside more. Hoping to get a lot of it in before Arise.
I played an embarrassing amount yesterday and lemme tell ya, this fuckin game is on pace for my GOTY so far, lets see how the story continues to develop
I got the hang of combat about 5 hours in and fuck, the game gets so fun after that. I never felt like I had a hold of Tales combat before, but for this one it clicked. Im no pro but I definitely feel confident fighting bosses and stuff.
I am about 4 hours in and loving it as well. Such a well polished game. Really loving the story so far and the combat.
So I'm about 20 hours in. Just got to Kisara. The characters are a great part of this and really not what I expected. Think it was the Video Game thread I said this but I wish the areas were fleshed out more. They're gorgeous but so limited. Other than that, getting some major FFX vibes and thats been my favourite JRPG for years. Seems short though, im hoping that I've still got a bit left.
last week on the GameInformer podcast they said just pushing through the main story with minimal side content completed would take around 70 hours
I've just finished the 5th realm and I'm not sure if the game is "finished". I'll go back to it tomorrow but it's been a great time so far. I'm currently at about 30 hours.
I'm in the third realm and I think Arise is "okay." Berseria seems better in most aspects, but this is better than a lot of Tales games.
