tales of the abyss for example has tons of mechanical stuff and lore, but it's all related to the idea that the world is run by the, uh, "score" or w/e which tells everyone how their life is gonna go, and the systems around that, and that was really cool because it was a great concept. i don't remember what vesperia's worlds gimmick was but i think it was just about elemental stuff to control water/earth/air or something? and it wasn't as interesting, basically.
