Anybody enjoying this game? I'm looking for redeeming qualities, and I keep coming back to "it only cost me $20."
Characters are cliche, writing is passable at best, it's even grindier than the last SMT I tried to get into, damage is way too bursty, navigation is just bizarre, and the mechanic for deciding first strike is clumsy as hell.
I'd give it a 6. Get AC:NL if you want a grind that feels like you're achieving something.

Don't have it yet but your complaint is kind of common. It just isn't your cup of tea, if you couldn't get into the series with this one then you will not enjoy the series at all!
About Animal Crossing I read reviews and even watched gameplay videos, boring as hell xD. And you don't have to grind in the SMT series, as a matter of fact, I never had to grind for anything in a RPG for the main story. Level alone is not going to help you in that game

Hm, I was hoping I might get a "just wait until you hit x" response. I'll try coming at it when I'm in a different frame of mind, then trade it in if it still won't click.
Yeah, I can totally understand AC not having enough action for a lot of people, but so far the story and characters of AC kick the crap out of the cardboard drones in SMT. The goddamn AI has more personality than anybody else in that game so far, which is pretty pathetic for genre which is supposedly all about storytelling.

Honestly, I think that has to do with the fact that the AI talks more than the other characters. I'm over 20 hours in and most of the talking done by main characters is the AI herself. Walter is probably 2nd.
