Yeah, but this is pretty cut-and-dry. After this all that's going to happen is peopl are going to list things that they found appealing and genuine, and your response will be "No, I cannot help but disagree with you, it feels like nothing was [insert quality here]". You are appealed to by different things. Let me illustrate the point: In Tales of Vesperia, what did you think of the scene where Estelle cried out, "I want to be myself"? If that wasn't particularly emotional for you, nam one that was and say why. In Lost Odyssey, what did you think of the moment when Sed says, "Just when I had found you again"? |
I never found Tales of Vesperia to be emotional. I thought that everything surrounding the goverment's curruption/guilds/Yuri and Flynn's arguments to be very deep and believeable and that all the stuff about the aer/blastia/apatheia/entelexeia was complex and very well thought out. I also thought that the characters from ToV had some real great interactions and developement. The relationship between them were great as well. Vesperia also had some awesome plot twists too. There are of course flaws within ToV's narrative such as plot holes like why exactly did Zagi want Flynn during the beginning of the game and that it failed to properly forshadow some events/plots twists like when Alexei revealed that he was behind everything. They forshadowed it well but he never really showed up much within the game before that point so it felt a bit random. ToV also had a problem with putting some important story elements into sidequest instead of putting it inside the main storyline such as finding out that Hermes (the man that created the Hermes blastia) was Judith's father and Yeager's back story. But overall, I loved it. The ToV movie should be out online by the end of May, hopefully it can clear up some of the plot holes.
