it's been cutscenes for like the last 7 hours straight, and every character talks like an idiot repeating things i already know, and anime gasping at obvious things

there's been like maybe 10 minutes of gameplay since i got to the spaceship and now the gang's split up for like the 3rd time to force me to have 5 more cutscenes with each individual party member

i loved berseria, what happened with this one

It's significantly better than Berseria and I don't even like Arise

See this was the problem I had with Scarlet Nexus, but when Tales of Arise did it, I just... Didn't mind

Yeah I can't deal with long cutscenes or dialogue anymore either. I somehow got more impatient as I aged.

it's weird cuz i just played through all of ff14, which also had hours of cutscenes. but for some reason i didn't mind it that much there? i guess cuz i actually cared about the lore and the characters.

but here, from start to now, even after 50 hours i honestly still can't find things to care about with the main characters. they're so one dimensional and just talk about the same things over and over (shionne's thorns, law's dad, dohalim being weird, etc.). It's like i'm stuck in a timeloop.

it's like they didn't have the budget to finish the game so they had to turn a good chunk of it into a visual novel.

zestiria at the very least had edna and zaveid

the plot was dumb but the main cast was at least lively

arise has...what? 50 hours in and rinwell just asked shionne if her thorns ever made her lonely... something she's repeatedly said has been the case since the start of the game. c'mon

I'm up to the spaceship after visiting the other planet and it looks like it's about to be endless expositional dialogue. Also the pacing is shit, nothing but small arcs with 1 detail added to a guy who died in the 5th arc and then showed up to die again in the 6th arc.
