Well, the Voice Acting and music are excellent, the city exploration, whilst limited (as there's only one) is also good, some of the dialogue is funny (for example, Syrenne and Calista sharing a 'bath'), the combat system is new and unique, even if not executed perfectly (so it deserves kudos for doing something different), and the story is relatively intriguing. Not brilliant, but above-average.
Fact is, each pro is outweighed by a con, and that's why Xenoblade is FAR superior. Have you finished Xenoblade yet BTW?

In what way is the combat unique? Cuz I gotta say, I've really grown tired of the button smashing that's so common in games :P Perhaps I should give TLS a chance anyways? I wish you could download a demo of sort!
No, I haven't played any thing at all the last few days... I've been busy with bear and stuff ^^ And besides, my girl is always hogging the game! But she loves it :D

The combat system shows you the battlefield in advance. You can pick off far-away enemies with a crossbow and special bolts (e.g. Wizard killers) to ease your path slightly. Then you can go in and attack. You can use 'Gathering', which takes all aggro away from your other party members, doubles casting speed (normally 20 seconds, goes down to 10 seconds), and you gain HP from your attacks.
When mages cast a spell, a magic circle remains. You can stand is this magic circle to gain that element for you weapon, or the heal. Or, you can use Gale to dispatch this magic circle, with varying effects (e.g. Ice causes enemies to fall over, Fire negates defence etc.).
There's other, minor stuff, like mega attacks, and skill links, but I don't wish to confuse
