Fortunately, Zestiria has a great deal going for it if you're willing to put in the time. Although the PS4 version is a port of the PS3 version and looks the part, it does so in the best way that it can...

Abstract: You kinda know what you're getting when you buy a new Tales game. In a way, it's a series that's kind of like Madden or Call of Duty - to the outsider, each game is nigh indistinguishable from any other, but to the diehard fan, seemingly subtle changes ma...
Abstract: Promising signs are at Bandai Namco UK for its Tales of games, as this is the first time a game in the 20 year history of the series has released in both Japan and the UK in the same year. It's also the first time it has step foot on this current generati...
Rapid fire battles, Cheery storyline, Beautiful pastoral world
Slow intro, Randomly populated dungeons
Zestiria is an epic adventure that doesn't take itself too seriously Zestiria is an epic adventure that doesn't take itself too seriously with an innovative, fast paced battle-system and the ability to put ridiculous accessories on your party. I loved se...
Crisp anime visuals, Deep combat systems, Engaging characters and story, A big, lengthy tale
Some boring and generic dungeons, Both mind-boggling and over-explained
That doesn't make Tales of Zestiria a bad JRPG. It has its dull passages and a tendency for endless exposition, but it's still brighter, more colourful and more immediately fun than any of the recent Final Fantasies, and it's arguably the best thing the g...
Openworld map, Armitization feature, Deep customization
Bland story and characters, Linear dungeons
Tales of Zestiria doesn't deviate too far from its competent predecessors, but it's not a carbon copy, either. It may have linear dungeons and a less-than-stellar story, but it's open-world exploration, enjoyable customization, and flashy new Armitization...

Tales of Zestiria è sicuramente un prodotto ottimo per i neofiti che vogliono avvicinarsi al genere senza dover incappare in avventure incredibilmente complicate. Battle System coinvolgente e una trama di gioco comunque piacevole sono senza dubbio le cara...

Spannendes Kampfsystem, Tiefes Item- und Ausrüstungssystem, Frischer Wind durch Armatisierungs-Feature, Schöne Oberwelt mit Weitsicht, Japanische Synchronisation endlich dabei, Episches Intro
Eher schwache Story mit blassen Charakteren, Eher lineare Dungeons, Technisch irgendwo zwischen den Konsolengenerationen
Ein flottes, spannendes Kampfsystem mit sinnvollen Neuerungen, ein beinahe ausuferndes Skill- und Ausrüstungssystem, das uns über Dutzende Stunden motiviert und Grinding par excellence, Tales of Zestiria könnte ein verdammt gutes Spiel sein. Dazu die Ja...
