I wouldn't go as far to say they nailed it.  I'm hesitant to judge it completely, because I'm halfway through, and the battles are definitely starting to require more strategy, so I'll see how that progresses.  But so far I'm able to make it through mostly with the basic strategy of attack and heal when necessary.  It's a solid foundation but there's some room for improvement.  I'll see if the later bosses require more actual strategy.

Wait until you play on the hard difficulty. That is where the battle system’s depth shines.

But brace yourself. This is no pushover!

TBH that's probably not going to happen at least for a while.  Again, I'm liking the game alot so far, but unless I really love a game, it's really unlikely that I'll play it again on a harder level.  I think the last game I did that for was Bayonetta 2 back on the Wii U.    Actually no, I did that for Spider-man more recently.

I may want to play this again once the third (I hope there aren't more than three) game hits and I can play the whole thing through, and maybe then I'll try it on hard then.
