Abyss is the best one but it only sits on the PS2 and 3DS.

Berseria is...at worst second best, tied on a good day, and the actual part where you play the video game is better than Abyss. Easily accessible, dirt cheap right now.

Vesperia has some problems but it's still a classic.

Symphonia has aged pretty badly gameplay eaise but it's still a solid experience.

Arise has really good feeling combat, even if the story and characters are mid to good, still a great package and the highest budget afair for sure.

Xillia is mid. Graces has arguably the best combat but the game is pretty mediocre overall.

Zesteria is very, very bad. Bad enough that the guy who had been running Tales for like a decade (leading the mediocre years) was likely forced out over it due to some behind the scenes stuff. Berseria was the first game after he left.
