phantasia, eternia, berseria

Phantasia started it all, eternia in my opinion perfected a lot of small things and berseria brought in a new era after several stale and boring games

With tales of games, I always put preference on how fun they are to play and how likeable the entire cast is. I am also a huge fan of doing air-combos, so I never was much of a artes-tree fan since you cannot jump thus no air combat in these games, the gameplay system tales of graces f, zestiria, and berseria uses. (Out of these 3, the first 1 graces F is actually my favorite because of the parry mechanic being pretty cool. Zestiria's battle system is just a whack-ass version of graces F's, and berserias while an improvement on the move customization part starts to feel a bit button-mashy). *I do got a kick out of tales of arise's system since its this new blend of having full 3D combat yet found a way to bring the jump button/air combat back. It feels like it can be improved though, so I hope that is a thing for the next tales of game if they are sticking with this system*

I have a bias towards the team symphonia style/feel tales of games, so xillia 1/xillia 2 for that improved style of gameplay (they are a package deal, and even though xillia 2 is my favorite in the series and a great deal better gameplay wise than part 1 it doesn't feel right to tell someone to play the sequel without having touched the first game), vesperia for being the best all-rounder....it has the most unlockables outfits before DLC became the majority of outfits, 9 characters who all feel different to play to mess around with, and a shit-ton of post game content, improving on what symphonia and abyss started with all this stuff, and tales of destiny remake for that practically perfected old school 2D tales of gameplay.

Vesperia bersaria and arise are probably the best showing of the series out of what I've played. Symphonia hasn't aged super well so I can't really say that one anymore. I haven't made it very far in abyss, I know it's well liked but it just didn't resonate well with me.

This represents classic 2D, traditional 3D and modern 3D Tales games when it comes to visual style and battle systems and all of these games range between great to good bare minimum. Honorable mention goes to Symphonia HD, Xillia 2 and Hearts R.

Start with Symphonia then. It's the oldest out of the 3 you have. It will feel weird if you play the newer games and then go back to the linear motion battle system of Symphonia

Arise didn't renovate anything gameplay wise within the series. It just has higher quality visuals, but it does everything else worse than other Tales games.

Nope. Abyss can be excluded because outside of story, most other Tales games are better than it is. Vesperia has superior gameplay among other things which is why Abyss isn't on most lists here.

Tbh Xillia 2 was pretty good but it's weird to have a sequel on without its original game.

Let's be real Abyss isn't on because its story and characters are incredibly divisive. >_>

That's your opinion and that's fine but the doesn't negate the fact that it was not only the 4th best selling game in the US the month it came out, only being beaten by super mainstream games:

But it's also the best selling/fastest selling Tales game to date. It did wonders for the series.

Symphonia holds up pretty well, especially with its story. I never finished the game, but Vesperia apparently has one of the best and it's gameplay is pretty undisputed as peak. I like Zestiria, but not as much as others, and found Berseria boring. I don't remember Abyss well enough to comment on it. Of the ones I've played that really only leaves Arise; which is excellent on all counts. The story is somewhat weak in a few areas, but overall delivers a consistent high quality package with great characters and some of the best gameplay in the series, imo.

Arise is the only one in the series where I actively sought out fights because I was having so much fun with the combat. Most of the others I start avoiding encounters; especially in the back half of the games where everything becomes an HP sponge.
