Playing this after having played the original version on the Xbox 360 so many years ago, so far loving the characters/plot/gameplay just as much. As someone who's grown up on the Tales series, Tales of Vesperia is an easily lovable game with a just as easy to love cast of characters, however I can see the game being seen as boring by others not too familiar with the series. I'm not as interested in mastering combos when it comes to combat gameplay, and as such the combat gets a little repetitive, however this can be easily challenged by someone with more ambition. The Definitive Edition does present some issues when it comes to sound mixing, as some of the characters have new voice acted scenes. These new scenes have different sound levels compared to the original scenes, and can sometimes be jarring.
