TALES OF BERSERIA – Metacritic Score: 78
Tales of Zestiria got a mixed reception last year, mainly due to its weird combat style and bland story, but it seems like the developers listened to the critics and delivered a better game with Tales of Berseria. This emotional tale of revenge reverts the changes introduced in the last entry and focuses on a narrative darker than usual for a Tales Of game, completely opposed to Tales of Zestiria.
Reviewers in general believe that Tales of Berseria is a great game, with a powerful story, compelling characters and a new, improved combat style. Despite being too conservative, they consider that the writing quality and the gameplay of this JRPG are top-notch. On the negative side, critics thought that the game’s visuals and attention to detail are lacking. However, Tales Of fans are very pleased with what they got, including myself and our reviewer.
