Eternal Sonata was nothing more than the leftovers of Tales of Vesperia. They use the same engine by similar teams. However, all of the resources to make a great game went to ToV instead of ES. ToV is superior in every fathomable way, and then some (my JRPG of the gen for consoles).

If you can, snag a copy of ToV and see what ES was supposed to be. FWIW, I own both, and bought both on launch day. ES was great when it came out, as its cell-shaded graphics were godly back in the day. However, ToV is better in every way, with a similar graphical flair. Better story, combat, characters, gameplay, the whole 9 yards. Heck, the same voice actors are in both games. Try to guess which ones are which after playing ES, then moving to ToV.

Those games were made by two different developers. And yea Vesperia is better in most every way.
