5.0 out of 5 stars A great RPG with fun characters
Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2009
Color: Xbox 360Verified Purchase
I was not sure whether I would love Tales of Vesperia or just like it, as most game sites scored it around 8/10. But after watching a few hours of gameplay on youtube and enjoying it, I knew playing it would be even better so I bought a copy. I think Tales of Vesperia deserves to be in the upper 8 to lower 9 range (out of 10 points). It is now one of my favorite games.

Pros:

-Most of the characters are well-voiced and have interesting back stories. The main character, Yuri, is not your stereotypical hero. In fact, he has a bit of a dark side to him, which makes his character even more interesting. Some characters might seem over the top at first, but they all grew on me after a few hours, and I don't dislike any of them. One of the girls can be a bit annoying (Estelle), she does play the naive, cute heroine well though. Even the little boy, Karol, who I thought would annoy me (as most kids in JRPGs do), is actually pretty well voiced and I grew to like him as I played.
-If you love dialogue, you'll get tons here. Most if it is well written and quite funny at times. If you only want action, stay away from this game (though I'm not sure why you would be looking at an RPG in the first place).
-The story is mostly good, though people who have played tons of RPGs might find it a bit stereotypical. Even so, there are enough surprises to keep you playing. People who haven't played many RPGs will probably love the story.
-The battle system is fun. No random battles, and you get to control the characters.
-Friends can join in during battles and take control of a character (only local co-op, no online). Friends can drop in and drop out easily.
-Huge world to explore. This will take you at the very least 50 hours to finish.
-Very pretty environments and characters. The graphics aren't taking the Xbox 360 to a new level, but they do look great overall. I particularly like the Anime style.
-Grinding isn't really required to beat the bosses, as long as you fight most enemies in the dungeons.
-Tons of optional side quests. Lots of items and monsters to find/fight.

Cons

-Near the end of the game, the story slows down a bit. The story in general might be considered average by hard-core RPG gamers.
-Dungeons are pretty linear, and the puzzles are extremely simple. This isn't Zelda. Luckily, dungeons aren't huge, there's just a lot of them. So in between dungeons you'll generally get some story progression. I've played Baten Kaitos (Gamecube), which has similar linear dungeons, but for whatever reason I liked Vesperia's better. Could just be because I care about the characters a lot more, so the linear dungeons don't bother me as much.
-Some people might find the characters/dialogue cheesy. I personally didn't, but I can easily see how others might feel differently.
-Only local co-op, no online.

Overall 9/10. One of my favorite games, and highly recommended. If you've never played an RPG before, you'll probably enjoy this game a lot. If you are unsure, watch walkthroughs on youtube to get an idea of the gameplay/story.

4.0 out of 5 stars Somewhere between 4 and 4.5 Stars for Me
Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2012
Color: Xbox 360Verified Purchase
I am years behind on this review but I felt like I should write one, mainly because every other game review I seem to produce on Amazon is either bad or merely decent.

A year or two ago I got my home theater set up and I was trying to decide on which RPG to get into for the 360 (I'm a pretty big RPG fan). Sadly, there isn't a large selection for the Xbox so it didn't take me long to find competition between a few titles. I won't list any other possible selections because I haven't played them, although it should be noted that there are some other RPGs and even JRPGs out there with good or very good reviews as well (as you can see Tales has very good reviews here).

I am a traditional kind of RPG player (I enjoy games such as Final Fantasy 1,6,7, Xenogears, Lunar Silver Star Story Complete, Chrono Trigger) although I am open to anything with a good story, graphics and sound. One of the first things that really appealed to me about Tales is the beautifully crafted artwork. As others have mentioned, the game consists of cell shading, and while the graphics are relatively simple, they remain very vibrant and fun to view. I found the villages very comforting, and even the dungeon-type landscapes were still nice to look at. Also, I thought the camera angles were original and made the experience unique. For example, while running down a stairway, the camera will sometimes follow right behind you, so you really gain a depth of perception into the setting.

The music was also enjoyable. It has been years now since I played it but I still find that I remember many of the tracks. It was also nice on my surround system because some of the background effects (such as running water or blowing wind) were truly surround. Audio is one of the biggest aspects for a game to me and Tales does well in this department, albeit they also play it relatively safe.

Although there is a large open world with a traditional world map, I did find the game in general as relatively linear. Not in pacing or completing missions or the storyline, but in the layouts of platforms and dungeons and paths. What I mean is, everywhere you encounter enemies (other than the world map) is a bunch of small paths in which you take them left or right, up or down. This effect is more easily experienced than explained. However, due to the beauty of the landscapes, I was able to look past this flaw for the most part.

While the villages and environments are beautifully stunning, I found that most of the large cities were not quite as explorable as I had wished. You may enter a few buildings and participate in a few side quests, but for the most part the huge metropolises are pretty much inaccessible for you. While some games I feel present TOO much to explore and other areas of the game suffer for this, I feel as though Tales of Vesperia was shortcoming in variety and being able to really become a part of the settings in which you explore. Sure, there are minute side quests and interactions with NPCs, but I feel that there could have been much more. For example, think of the Gold Saucer in Final Fantasy VII. Well, Tales offers an island in the game much like it, and really, it is more or less an equivalent to the Gold Saucer. Actually, the FF7 recreation area was probably MORE in depth, and it was released in 1997! Of course, Final Fantasy VII was a masterpiece and lives as one of the great JRPGs, but still, Tales of Vesperia released over ten years later. While the graphics may have improved, the overall immersion in the environments was little or not improved from a decade prior. I did, however, become addicted to playing the poker on the island, and it is also a great way to make money in the game.

The fighting is somewhat dissimilar from traditional RPGs in that it is not turn based, and you have the ability to run around a three-dimensional sphere as a combat area. While it is relatively primitive, the battles are rather fun. I like the option of being able to put the other party members on auto, so your healers and magic casters will stand in the back of the battle (hopefully!) and cast as you choose to physically attack (which is what I most often did). There are "fatal strikes", which are basically death-blows and they are the most fun thing in the combat to me. And throughout the game, including boss battles, I felt as though the battles were hard enough to be competitive but not horribly unfair. I rather enjoyed fighting many of the big monster bosses, which often were completely optional for the player.

I think the biggest drawback to Tales of Vesperia is the story. It is only good enough to keep you playing, and actually many of the other perks in the game (such as the fighting and artwork) probably kept me playing more so than the storyline. And this is an RPG we're talking about. While I rather enjoyed all of the characters (even Karol!) and all of their dialogues, I felt that the main story was weak and that the conclusion of the game was severely disappointing. All of the ideas that I had in my head about how the game would end came crashing to a halt when I finally completed the game. I think I was looking for more of a dialogue between my characters of which I'd come to love, and in that department Tales pretty much let me down.

There are other aspects in the game (such as cooking, fighting in arenas or finding rare collectibles) that were enjoyable, but again they were pretty much tertiary and did not leave me with a feeling of accomplishment. Cooking for example could have developed into something really fun and novel, but in the end it was kind of a letdown.

Overall, I still rate this game at over four stars. If you enjoy RPGs that are aesthetically pleasing and traditional, Tales of Vesperia is a great choice for you. I actually traded my game in and I wish that I had kept it now, if only to jump on every once in a while and listen to the soundtrack and fight some battles. Namco did a great job with this title and I would look forward to another in the future, as long as the storyline comes off as a little more compelling.

3.0 out of 5 stars Overall solid JRPG with frustrating quirks
Reviewed in Canada on June 22, 2016
Color: Xbox 360Verified Purchase
Note: this review is based off of the digital version of the game. The physical copy I ordered from here had a deep scratch that prevented me from progressing or installing to the hard drive.

If you like JRPGs then you'll like this game, and if you're already familiar with the Tales series then it's a no-brainer.

It has an active battle system, interesting characters and an interesting world. My biggest complaint that mars the experience for me is that the game has plenty of ridiculous story gauntlets - forcing you to sit through lengthy, unskippable cutscenes before a challenging boss fight that you WILL die to, even if you had no difficulties with the enemy encounters before it. I find myself switching to Easy battle difficulty for the bosses and Normal for everything else.

Other than that though, this is solid. Unlocking new artes (attacks) to use in battle feels really rewarding and keeps the otherwise samey combat interesting. What's not rewarding though is that material drops are hard to come by, and farming for specific materials in order to synthesize new items (particularly the character-specific cosmetics) is a huge pain.
