From someone that didn't play the original Tale Of Symphonia

To begin please gently criticize my English, as it is my third speaking language. Like my title says. The last console I ever own was the N64, just recently I bought a Wii and bought this game by accident. It was really random and When I started to play i immediately noticed that for sure there was a prequel to this game. So by playing this game it really started to get addicting by pacting with monster and evolving them having the sense of achievement when your new evolved monster start to beat up the enemies. I have to say from someone that never played any Tale Series and I have played over 50 rpg, I can conclude that TOS DONW had a pretty interesting story and it seemed slighty rushed at some point. But in general i was satisfied with the plot. Great gameplay, intense fighting and I find great boss made it great. I personally really enjoyed this pacting with monster and evolving them gave me a great satisfaction. The weaker point for me would be the main character as I personally didn't like him that much, it was bearable and voice acting was a mix bag. Some were really good and some were awful. but I somewhat find him lame. So I would scale down what I though as a final word for this game.

Good point.
-Pacting with monster is addicting and fun.
-Intense action play
-Interesting story
-Great since of satisfaction to evolve you beast into killing machine.

-Weak Point
-Somewhat lame protagonist
-Story felt a bit rushed
-Mix bag voice acting

Final Scale 4.5
Final Word (Game grows on you)

p.s. Wii really lacks RPG for now... It wouldnt hurt you to try this game, im sure you would get addicted just like I did.

Thanks you Reading.
