Tales of Arise is a very good RPG, blessed with great graphics, a wonderful cast of characters and engaging combat mechanics, but its flaws are also hard to ignore. If you are looking for a long, engaging JRPG to play, Tales of Arise is definitely a good choice.

People slag off Zesteria and then rave about Arise. Arise was just boring, lacked any character and felt fetchy.

I'm a fan of Tales, even if I don't like them all but this is just rubbish. Zesteria smashed this. Berseria was a step down due to being stale and slow but this is worse. It was a lot of money to have so little fun.

Standards are so low these days.

This is one of the best RPGS i have ever played i have so many good things to say about this game. The cast is great such as Ray Chase as Alphen and Erica Lindbeck as Shionne Imeris their chemistry and characters work so well with what they have to work with (yes i did play in english). The worlds of Dahna and Rena are really great and have their very distinct quirks to them which make them great worlds in their own right. The main characters such as Law, Rinwell, Dohalim and Kisara are really great and have great development through out the game

The flaw is the villains are forgettable.

The Tales series is known for its storytelling, and Arise is no exception. In fact, Tales Of Arise is now my favorite game in the series, even more so than Symphonia.

The game is portrayed through protagonist Alphen, a slave with a mysterious past who does not feel pain. He is charming and Try to help everyone in need and act as a protector of his fellow slaves. He plays the lead along with Shion. A member of the slave race who couldn't touch her body without cursing magic thorns erupting from her body. Seeing their relationship grow out of controversy but necessary to become friends.

The battle system in this sector allows us to control the characters freely. We do not have to worry about using SKILL because this sector does not use the MP system, and when the game progresses through the story moderately, you can set SKILL characters from that can use 6 moves, will be able to set additional 6 slots to 12 moves, making playing and releasing SKILL to do Combo more continuously

In addition to having the LV system, which is the heart of the Rpg game, there is also a system for upgrading various skills, moves and additional abilities, such as 1 attack, there will be 2 levels when we get with the ability of the skill, etc., and the ability to Evade or attack back, including the main character's ultimate.

And this sector also adds a cooking system and fishing mini-games for players to play more as well. Cooking characters will have different effects depending on the type of food they eat (like Final Fantasy 15).

The length of the main story game, if not counting the sub-quests, then it is considered that the game is made out to play for about 30 hours. It's good to wear and the game is about 70 hours long.

Tales Of Arise is an addictive RPG game that should not be missed by both newcomers and fans of the series. You will find a new overhaul that will bring both new and old players alike. More accessible and can still enjoy the battle system of the game and access it is not difficult. For those who are fans of this series and buy the Ultimate version. You will receive a set of costumes, potions to increase character stats and weapons, which makes the first part of the game that makes the player Easy to play and much more comfortable ever.

9/10 rating is the opinion of the reviewer himself.
