It was crazy easy to fall in love with this new version of the LMBS system to the point that I couldn’t wait for the next battle. Melee combat fits perfectly with the title’s theme of reason versus emotion though as there is nothing more emotional than striking out at those that seek to harm you.

The PC version offers a smooth 60 frames per second which is awesome considering how Berseria largely focuses on melee based combat with only a few characters being ranged like Laphicet. What I really love about Tales of Berseria’s combat system is its fluidity. This is especially useful when fighting in enclosed locations like the prison in the game’s early hours. Players can navigate around the battlefield this time around with complete freedom which is enhanced by being able to freely rotate the camera around to focus on the action as needed. Tales of Berseria uses a refined version of the Tales’ signature Linear Motion Battle System (LMBS) to allow for a smoother combat experience. In a world against Velvet’s very existence, you will have no shortage of physical battles to fight in your way besides the emotional and philosophical ones.

Eizen is a knowledge heavy pirate who won’t let any man chain him down into servitude while Laphicet is learning what it is to be an individual after being in servitude to exorcists like Eleanor. Rounding out the party are the magic based Malakhim Eizen and Laphicet who despite belong to the same race are the farther apart as individuals. Though when she does, look out you really don’t want to piss her off. Somewhere in the middle you have the sarcastic and humorous comic relief mage Magilou, who often would rather poke fun at than engage in combat. Then you have Rokurou, the swordsman turned Daemon, who is always looking for the next fight though probably wouldn’t think twice about going through his friends to get his ultimate goal. You have Eleanor, a struggling with her faith exorcist girl who is having a hard time upholding the standards created by Velvet’s betrayer and seeing him for what he truly is capable of.

Tales of Berseria is full of interesting characters that I love for different reasons though mostly because their own journeys while running parallel to Velvet’s quest have their own weight that comes to light throughout the story. This is perhaps one of Berseria’s greatest strengths as I felt that everyone could a find a connection on some level to the all of the different characters within its story. Even when the entire world of Berseria (outside of Velvet’s menagerie) loves him I couldn’t help but to share Velvet’s hatred for him. The main villain on the opposite end of the conflict is easily one of my most hated characters in any media.

Seriously though, she sets all the prisoners free during her prison breakout as a diversion, not caring at all for their fate just so she could escape to end the man that ruined her life. Even the companions that you will gain find her to be often overly harsh but the more you play you start to see some growth towards who she once was. Velvet may very well be the coldest characters that I’ve experienced in an RPG in a while especially from the “hero” of a franchise but somehow I was captivated by her plight and her at any-costs behavior given her situation. Locked away on a prison island with nothing but demons to feed upon after a traumatic event, the newly transformed part demon, Velvet becomes so filled with rage and hatred that she but a shell of the girl you see in the beginning hour of Berseria. You see the world of the Holy Midgand Empire has been beset upon by a disease called Daemonblight that transforms people into monsters that exist without a sense of rationality.

This story follows the series’ first solo heroine Velvet Crowe, a girl once happy despite worrying about her little brother, before her life is railroaded by betrayal and deceit.

Tales of Berseria is a very different entry into what has been a fairly lighthearted series up until this point. While this wasn’t my first exposure to the beloved franchise it did start my own journey that has lead me these past 10 years to be able to review Tales of Berseria for the PC today. For me, my first entry in the world of reviewing games was for Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology which I heavily enjoyed. When it comes to the video game industry there have been many firsts. These are moments that we hold onto and remember. There is always something to be said about first times and journeys in life.
