RPGWatch Curation:

Tales of Zestiria is a story rich J-RPG. You need to learn the rather complex action-combat system to enjoy fights. The background story, characters and dialogues are well written. A good Tale-Game!

I found this game ok, but a bit too action-y for my tastes, quite similar to Berseria. My favourite of the three hands-down would be Tales of Symphonia, which I'm certain to replay at some point. The other two, I don't see me ever revisiting.
