This game is pretty awesome. It is the eight child of the Tales series, which is made up of twelve games so far. Like most classic Tales games, there are six main characters, a plethora of sides, and just as many villains.
Luke fon Fabre(17) is your starter character as well as the one the story revolves around. He is a swordsman.
Tear Grants(16) is your second acquired character, primary healer, and Melodist. She is a soldier.
Jade Curtiss(35) is your primary fonist and perfect-timed comedian. He is a military colonel.
Guy Cecil(21) is your secondary swordsman (though, personally, he fights better than Luke).
Anise Tatlin(13) is your only puppet master and secondary fonist.
Natalia Luzu Kimlasca Lanvaldear(1 cool is Luke's fiance (and obviously a princess from the name). She's your only archer and secondary healer.
Mieu (??) is a cheagle, which looks like a combination of a rabbit and "Thing." If you know what a sorcerer's ring is, he possesses it, and wears it to speak the human language, breath fire, and many other abilities as you progress through the game.

Now I can't truly say that without spoiling the game. So, starting out, it's the get Luke home safe and sound after an unanticipated accident. But it rapidly spirals out of control. Rapidly.

You failed to understand what I meant.
Object of the game definition - what type of a game is it?
Choose from the following simpleton:
1. RPG - like the Legend of Zelda, you are following a storyline of a certain character.
2. Gotta catch em all - like Pokemon, its more of a collections game where you want to collect as many of one type of item as you can.
3. Ville-style - building a city/civilization/farm/real-life based simulation game.
4. Martial arts - like capcom/SNK you are fighting one on one in a tournament.
5. War based - guns, weapons, bloodshed. Its kill or be killed.
6. Back in time - the World of Warcraft, Dungeons and Dragons, and any game that takes you to medieval times, but isn't based on any particular movie (lord of the rings).
So, of these 6, which best describes the game that you are telling us about?
If I was guessing, I would say its an RPG style where you are playing a certain character and you must try to play out his life after a certain event happens.

...you used a word that I don't think you realize made for a confusing question.
Object = objective = goal = point of focus in the game.
Tales of the Abyss is a mix of RPG (overall character development), gotta catch 'em all (all inventory items are collectibles), martial arts (there are tournaments you can join after a certain point of the game and all the characters have different fighting styles (mixed skill and technique), and war-based (you don't use guns, but every game has you fighting some sort of military force).

Precisely. And the original story line is literally an escort mission: only you're the escort/guardian. Your friend is going on a pilgrimage to become an 'angel' to help 'renew the world'. You end up joining her after a series of events that leads you to needing to live your home village for a while.
Along the way, you are joined by several different characters with varying backgrounds and fighting styles. Deeper and deeper in you learn secrets that were supposed to stay buried forever and everything as you see and know it are forever warped.

I remember Tales of Symphonia! It was so much fun...
Actually... I think they might be together in a series of games?
Symphonia and Abyss, I mean.
I'm not entirely sure on that though...
But this Tales of Abyss game sounds like fun!

You're not entirely incorrect. It is a game series but there is no proof of direct connection between theirs worlds as they live in completely different worlds. Of the games I'm aware of, there's:
Tales of Symphonia
Tales of the Abyss
Tales of Legendia
Tales of the World Radiant Mythology
Tales of Vesperia
Tales of Xillia
Tales of Graces f
Tales of Graces 2
But they made much more than this.
