It already feels better than Vesperia ;D This non-TP system took me a bit to getting used to, but it's definitely way better as far as I can tell. Anyone else got ToG F?

Yeah, both JPN and ENG.
I'm actually still not used to the non-TP, even though I've played it enough on the JPN Ps3.

I love CC. It prevents special move spamming, and it won't be as easy doing those ridiculous juggles from earlier tales games. I love how movement is done, especially with the elimination of the jump. I played this game so much today that I actually gotten late for my date

Love the CC guage -- and a lot of the feel sorta calls back to Hearts for me and that's a wonderful thing since I classify Hearts as my favorite game in the series. Compared to a good number of entries in the series, due to the CC and emphasis on dodging and working through the A and B artes, the battling's a good bit more involved.
I played it for 8 hours straight yesterday, prob won't get another good long run till finals are over though. Loved how the childhood arc worked out too. =w=d

Well, I've already beaten Graces twice on the Wii and JPN-PS3 so I'm used to the CC system. I like it a lot more than TP, even though I can't abuse Cheria like I did Estelle outside of battle with free healing.
Kinda sucks that you can't switch the param.sfo files to use a JPN region save on the NA version, but oh well, I've played it enough already so I'll live

The thing I like about CC is that it means melee characters don't burn through their TP and then become useless sadsacks.

I would've loved Graces F more if they let you pull off some air combos and allowed chain spells like in Destiny R but hey, it's still a good game.

I like non-TP dependent battle system a lot more -- though I'm only running off of 10 minutes playing Destiny-R and 120+ hours of Hearts. Rebirth doesn't count because I suck at remembering I don't have a healer so I lose party members more than I should. I usually notice that even when I run out of TP I go "djskfsdsfsd screw it, BAMFING IT OUT" and just stop using artes instead of using an orange/pineapple gel only real applicable place for them were for mages/healers during boss battles. General gel-usage anyways is really low.
Also, given that Graces' battle system focuses a good bit on dodging and reacting properly, I think it's also better that you don't have to worry about TP running out.

Well you get her as a random pick from a shiny spot.
Nooooooooooooooo. Kouli took down his guide. Well at least I finished the main arc then found all the Carta cards. I guess it's time to fork over $10 to find and complete the future arc completely.

Getting Cartas from shiny spots drove me completely insane and to think, I have another 40 left to go. Huzzah.
