A major theme in Vesperia is lawful vs. chaotic! You see this in a few ways, most notably with the knights vs. the guilds and Flynn vs. Yuri. The Imperial Knights work for the Empire and have rules and organization and are shiny and pretty but also pretty seriously corrupt in places. The guilds are people who have renounced their empire and set up their own sort of... anarchic co-op group of gangs, all with their own internal rules. Flynn is a knight who is trying to rise up in the knights and change the system from inside! Yuri quit the knights after like three months because it wasn't his style and ended up vigilante killing some corrupt people and eventually forming a guild (Brave Vesperia). It's pretty interestingly done though, because neither side is obviously just being dumb in the way you see sometimes. It's clear that there's not an easy solution and some tactics just work better at different times/for different people.
I FIND THIS PARTICULARLY INTERESTING FOR RAVEN because he was born a noble/became a knight/admires people who are knights, but in canon he thinks he was a terrible knight and is a lot more comfortable on the chaotic side of things. :|a
Also I just love the party. LIKE I enjoy other Tales games too but I am pretty sure most of the Vesperia party hits my character pings more than any of the characters in Abyss or Symphonia. Which is mostly a me thing but still. They are all smart and kind of snarky and not very good at talking about their feelings. Except for Estelle who is the earnest sheltered princess but she is still the best. She has read SO MANY BOOKS. And there are like five different friendly sadomasochistic dynamics among them. And they work together as a party amazingly well.
TELL ME SOME GAMES YOU HAVE ENJOYED or just. Things you enjoy about games. So I can recommend other xbox games to you.
