![]() ![]() While things seemed fairly normal and simple for our protagonist in the start, it all goes to hell pretty fast. Ludger lives alone with his brother Julius and obese cat Rollo, who I might add is incredibly adorable. Players take on the role of the almost-silent protagonist, Ludger Kresnik (whose surname bears a strange similarity to an important object from the first game), an inhabitant of Elympios. Tales of Xillia 2 takes place one year after the events of the original game where the two realms of Elympios and Reize Maxia are no longer separated by the magical barrier known as the Schism. Please note that this review will contain spoilers for the original game. Fast forward a year and the sequel is looking to carry on its predecessor’s legacy, flaws and all. Don’t get me wrong, the game was flawed, plagued with odd story pacing and bland environments, but none of that deterred me from falling in love with the loveable cast and awesome battle system. The original Tales of Xillia stands as one of my favourite entries into the long running JRPG franchise.
