Damn! I don't know if I'm just growing out of the JRPG thing, but would people agree with the game's story / characters being pretty weak? Up to chapter 17, sometimes I just wanna stab Welkin in the face... so tired of these cliched types!
Anyway, onto the gameplay! I use very few characters, besides my mains (Alicia / Rosie / Largo / Vyse / Aika). This will probably change once I beat the game (hard difficulty?), but so far the game is easy enough - A-ranked most levels without trouble the first time through (other maps, like that double tank pincer, obviously had to be redone). Surprisingly I had no trouble with Chapter 7 - just had to load once or twice, mainly because the enemy backup unexpectedly popped on top of half my troops...
So far I probably use Alicia the most. I had a ton of fun raping Selvaria with a Cautioned / Awakened Alicia. It's like godmode, I pretty much cleared out the entire map with her. Fun stuff! I want to finish the game, but have a ton of school work to do... hell, I should get off this site now.
I'm sure this has been asked plenty before, but do more people use the Japanese or English voices? I always leave games on Japanese when there's the option, maybe I'll change to English for my second playthrough (or as long as I can stand it).
