Though now, playing with my girlfriend, I look forward to playing both those games. I think it was just the slow single-player experience that turned me off. Then again, having played through both Xillia games, I know for certain I would have enjoyed both of those games in a single player atmosphere. The characters, while tropey and cliche (I believe this is what you meant when you say clique), were still well written and had a lot of development and progression, and were rarely written in an annoying fashion regardless. I didn't hate anyone. The story was a little out there, but didn't turn me off. On the contrary it seemed enough non-cliche to actually interest me, and still managed to throw a few surprises at me. More so in the first game. And god bless the action in the battles. Fast, frantic, ridiculous, fun.
Either way, I don't really have to worry about being turned off by a slow single player Tales game anymore. My girlfriend and I are slowing going backwards through the series playing together the ones we haven't beaten, or rebeating them in some cases. And Zestiria will definitely get added to this list. Any long-standing worthwhile co-op game is more than welcome in my library
