“The game is good, but after Bandai Scamco released a "remastered" of this game, I can't recommend giving this studio/publisher any money at all.”

“I had this game sitting in my Steam library for about 9 years - not because I didn't care to play it, but because I didn't have a computer that could run it. Flash forward to today, having finished must be over a…”
“I just finished obtaining all achievements for this game, and I will say, I'll never forget this game. The sense and feeling of adventure Tales of Berseria gave me from the moment I started it has been so unique and…”

“Fantastic story, Kept with the theme of how "Tales of" games typically end. Steller opening movie. Combat is easy to learn and get good at. Great character development and excellent side quest options.”
“By far has become my favorite of all Tales. The story, plot, characters (i love you Eizen), gameplay, battle system, and the general vibe of the game. I also adore that it shares the same world as Tales of Zesteria, and…”
“my first ever tales of game aside from watching the anime Tales of Zestiria the X. before the game I wanna talk about the intro opening, its amazing. It is a really cool opening and I watch it every time I open the game…”

“I think I am bit old for the writing of this game,plus I hated the combat.”
“Pretty good. The characters are likeable enough. Lots of backtracking though.”
“It gets better after 6 hours but not by much. For the most part it’s a needlessly enormous empty walking and backtracking simulator. There were so many times where it egregiously stretched out the walking sections for…”

“I bought this game on a whim, and as my first entry into the Tales series, it was quite an experience. The story is a breath of fresh air because it's darker than your typical RPG. You start as Velvet Crowe, a doting…”

“Original still holds up great, not sure anyone needs to buy the remastered version.”
— a player, Steam review · 54 hrs played“I love the Tales Series and Berseria is all time top 3 but why is there a remastered version with like 3% better graphics and no real changes to the game xD BRING US THE TALES THAT AREN'T ALREADY ON STEAM”
— a player, Steam review · 6 hrs played“This is the best JRPG I have played and has one of if not the best stories in a videogame. It's theme of self discovery, tackling the idea of the greater good and staying true to yourself and living by your own means have become valuable life lessons to me as of finishing this…”
