Played it for the first time a couple years ago, because people kept saying its awesome. However, the main characters' rivalry comes to nothing interesting, the pacing is awful, and the story and worldbuiling is all over the place.

For all its flaws, Tales of Symphonia is much more consistent, even if its story is a bit cliche.

I was extremely disappointed with the terrible characters and meh story. 360 owners who raved about this game for a decade knowing that most people wouldn't have played it were definitely overblowing its appeal.

But it's just the characters and story that are disappointing/terrible. Gameplay wise it's probably the most improved out of the team symphonia games, and the cel shading is naturally quite gorgeous. It's just a shame that unlike Abyss and Symphonia and even some of the team wolf games, the characters and story are super lame

Yeah, I played it back when it first came out and remember loving it.

I replayed the Definitive Edition and while it was still good, I wouldn't call it a great game. Battle system was fun but the story wasn't good and I hated it when they'd go on and on with these fantasy technical terms that they never explained or didn't make sense.

I've never played ToV but Yuri comes off very cool. Unlike previous MCs, Yuri is literally an adult and handles situations as such and I think that's a breath of fresh air.

I loved it... never got around to playing the special edition with the new characters but the original was awesome I actually genuinely liked all party members. Plus combat was a blast.

Yep. It's like they are going out of their way to scrutinize games for absolutely no reason... Tales of Vesperia is a good game...it's not trying to be some grandiose piece of art.

It has some of the best combat in the series and is one of the better stories (definitely not best)

All Tales games are average or the shits. One of the most overrated franchise out there.

I can't be overrated if it's not highly praised.
