Building Characters - I didn't really expect this from RPGs until I played Final Fantasy Tactics, and even moreso when I played Disgaea. I love having generic characters that I can build up to be invaluable powerhouses.
The plot has to be at least entertaining. Deep and involving, not a requirement. I found Tales of Symphonia's plot to be typical anime-ish, but it didn't keep me from chuckling at it here and there. Political/religious corruption, all for the better, but the plot can't put me to sleep. Also I think spell effects and such are a nice bonus. However, I like when they're flashy and fast. A sudden hard-hitting impact followed by a huge explosion really makes combat seem intense. Yggdra Union handles this exceptionally well. Jam it back in, in the dark.  |
