This game to me is one of the best Tales Games I've ever played and takes one of the Top Ten spots in favorite games of all time for me.
The casting for the English dubbed of this game really brought to life the emotion of the characters the actors and actress' put such amazing work into their roles that I couldn't sing their praises enough.
The storytelling is phenomenal when I first played on the computer I was Hooked to its story and development of the characters who all play off each other so perfectly it's always enjoyable watching the in between cutscenes.
A huge part of what sticks out to me in gaming is two things: Story, and Music. You can have all the GREAT GRAPHICS AND REALISM YOU WANT, but if the story sucks and the music is subpar it'll break it. but Berseria tells such an amazing story with such wonderful music that was timed in so perfectly to a lot of the scenes.

The scene where Velvet returns to her prison cell from the Kick Off of the game is probably one of my favorite scenes and Cristina Vee absolutely blew the performance out of the water. I Love her as a voice actress and again, I can't sing the praises enough, but I felt every emotion in that conversation between her and another character, her rage and overwhelming grief were so palpable. I shared a lot of emotions with a lot of scenes in this game and I'm damn glad I played this.
I recommend anyone that loves story and music in games to give this game a shot, Anime style may not be YOUR Thing, but there are experiences in this life that we can't pass up, and in my opinion Tales Of Berseria is one of those experiences!
