I highly recommend Tales of Arise. As a Tales of Series fan since Phantasia, Destiny, Eternia back in high school, Tales of Arise is the pinnacle of action-combat JRPG with its focus on superb storytelling, unique and captivating characters, noteworthy character development and a fluid combat system that has stayed true to the Tales of franchise formula. Getting good in combat is very rewarding as it greatly accelerates your progression as you perform better in execution of artes and combos instead of relying on impulsive button mashing. Top-notch voice acting, intricate character design, cool outfits, and a compelling end game, Tales of Arise is, without a doubt, an aspiring contender for game of the year.
