So , most of you must be wondering what's this time watches were for . And yes , we already get the answer ! = u = This time watches allows Ludger to travel through another parallel world and it seems that there is two of them if you watched the 1st trailer . Oh wait before that , I forgot to tell you bout this thing OuO
Ludger's Corpse Shell Ability
Ludger's special ability that allows him to roam freely in a separate dimension without caring about his HP , SP and also TP since there were no concept of HP,SP and also TP in this dimension . (eHow? Press L3 and R3 to activate it)
This Bizri guy knew about Ludger's special ability and like the quotes that Bizri says so , Ludger's mission is to destroy the time factor in those parallel world , and those time watches is the key to travel to other parallel world . (And also , once Ludger enter those parallel worlds , he can't get out until he destroys the time factor. )
Tales Of Xillia 2 is going to be released at 1 November 2012 .
Tales Series always have the BEST battle system and each year of creating the next Tales Of , new battle system will be created ! And yeah , Tales Of Xillia 2 has obtained their own unique battle system namerd XDR-LMBS (Cross Double Raid - Linear Motion Battle System) . From the first Tales Series's battle system , LMBS (Linear Motion Battle System) of Tales of Phantasia to now , XDR-LMBS is a level-upped from the previous story's battle system DR-LMBS (Double Raid Linear Motion Battle System) . So , the uniqueness of this Battle System is that you can shift weapons (though this is only exclusive for Ludger , but you can feel the increasing systems ) like Tales Of Graces's SS-LMBS(Style Shift Linear Motion Battle System) . Ludger can switch to three weapons as you see above , twin blade , twin gun and also hammer .
COMMON LINK ARTES

SKIT SYSTEM
What is a skit?
If you've played any Tales Series games , you must already knew what Skit is !
(Skit was a trademark of the Tales Series game ,,, in every Tales game , there is a skit )
So , skit , is a short moment where the characters talk .
(Is it just me or wasn't Vell remind you of Daisy from Sket Dance?PS:Vell will be explained after this)
So basically , I'm reminding you NOT TO skip the skit scene by pushing the START button . This once happen to me because I always skip the skit scene and I didn't know what Skit is for = u = And then I restarted the game because , SKIT IS SERIOUSLY AWESOME !!! You get to know the character well , too many funny thing until you explode ! DUDEEEE DON'T EVER SKIP ITTTT !!! Oh sorry again , did I off-subject ? =w=
And so , dedicated to the title "RPG Where Choices Spins The Future" , you'll need to press either L1 or R1 following your own choices / remember that this system is part of the game , same as events . This system is like Persona's game basically . We still didn't know whether Ludger talks or no after choosing the line =w=
Come to think of it , SOCIAL LINKS ??
SOCIAL LINKS
It's not called Social Links =w= It was called
MIRRORING
The "intimacy parameter" that Ludger shares with each character . The choices he makes in character episodes—free missions with the other characters—and long chats help strengthen your relationships. Depending on your relationship level, you may see special chats after battles and learn new Artes and skills as well.
