The English dubbing is a significant put-off, so the game must be played in Japanese Voice-acting and subtitles, in my opinion. It felt like another generic PS4 JRPG rather than a step forward in the genre, especially on the PS5"
Before I read the review uggghhh. Id like to point out id put a check on tales of arise having a way higher of a budget so theres that. I like tales but they sometimes bore at points in them me but i push through. I will say I havent played arise yet. I enjoy star ocean games but im also into sci fi so thats a big plus to me.
Reading the rest of it it seemed like you just got to caught up that it didnt look next gen enough for you. I personally like the look and prefer this look much more then say persona 5. Its just opinions in the end
The only people who would think this game is a 5 is people that spend most of their gaming time playing Madden and COD. A fair review score from someone that likes JRPGs would give it at least a 7.5. I loved it. Great story and characters. After finishing it last week, I can easily say 8.5
