+ The Good
By far the best aspect of Tales of Graces F is the tweaking of the battle system. The magic system as been completely replaced with a new system called the CC system (Chain capacity). Instead consuming magic moves consume chain capacity points. You can replenish chain capacity points by not taking action or guarding. This allows you to battle your way through long dungeons without having to worry about running out of magic.


This, this, this. I love it. Best mana system ever.

Mixer.

Food = Increased capacity.

Items = Increased slots (I make 'Scales'. 99% chance of success; very reliable, and helps increase capacity)

Spellbooks = Varied, but useful in many ways, depending on what you want. A nice addition.

Man. Gald is hard to come by in this game. What's worse is that the game discourages selling your own items because some of them are required for Inn Requests! Bullcrap.

Yeah, gald is scarce at first and mid game but disappeared at late game.
Try dualizing some stuff that can be sold for a hefty amount of gald.

This, on both accounts...sure, you deplete it fast near the end still, but you can get it back pretty quick...and I THINK there is a book that makes more gald drops, not 100% sure

Boo at costumes costing 3.99.

Running around doing all the late game stuff before I go off and fight the final boss of the present arc.

I *think* they increase by quality, but I'm not absolutely sure...

...

Also, I'm saving most of my forging items until I get the ultimate equipment. XD Whatever that is.

Not 100% sure but IIRC, if you go into your library, you can check the list of qualities. I believe it listed the stats gained from it as well...?

How long is this game? What's like the average? All of the previous Tales games I've played were long.
