But when it comes to combat, this is what Tales of Eternia is about.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
9 of 67 sampled reviews raised it
The story still holds up, and the new localization and dub have been enjoyable.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
7 of 67 sampled reviews raised it
The game is not anyhow grind-heavy at all, but some boss fights can be labelled as difficulty spikes and in such case leveling with like 4x EXP is much more fun and it does not feel like a boring job to do in order to be able to move forward.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

They were even nice enough to keep the English voice acting (see Baten Kaitos Remastered for how wrong things can go here).
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
6 of 67 sampled reviews raised it
The game runs almost always smoothly, it looks great (especially with new remastered graphics), the game supports mouse cursor so you can browse through the menus and in battle with your mouse (which as a PC player I just must appreciate).
