I loathe putting games on easy, but some of the dungeons in this game are ridiculous. Long complex mazes with super high encounter/spawn rates. Finally got past the one that was holding me back for the last month or so, so I can continue the game. But I'll keep my eye out for other gems on it, and its peers. Only hendheld I'm missing is a Vita, and can't wait to get one to play Tales of Hearts R (along with Persona 4: Golden)
I've noticed that handhelds like the Vita and 3DS are saturated with JRPGs in comparison to home consoles, hence my decision to buy the latter last Christmas. Though I've barely touched it since getting the system and still enjoy the feeling of an actual controller. Going to start hoarding any of the previous Tales of instalments I can get my hands on.
