I realise that it is kind of a Tales of thing, but I would not mind if they moved away a bit from the animesque stereotypical characters.
Firstly, not a single playable character deviates from the standard archetypes that mainstream animes are made up of. Good or bad, at least it gets old.
Secondly, the designs. The art style itself is obviously not the problem, just the way they make almost every character, even bloody creepers like Jade Curtiss from ToA look so sparkle-rainbow-unicorny.
A darker Tales of would be great, but perhaps it would not be true to the brand. Tales of Xillia2 looks like it is closer to this, but I have yet to play it, and would hate to spoil it by studying it too much online.
