Haven't had much time to play, but I finally beat Act 1 of Tactics. I must have beat it on easy on PC, the game is so much harder now and you actually need uh, tactics to win. There is a scout you get early in the game on your first rescue mission and she's added to your roster. She was my favorite character on PC, was happy to see it was set up the same in the console version. But she's an expendable extra character, not a main character. In the boss fight to end Act 1 I had to sacrifice her to be able to win, because she'd went down twice fighting my way to the end, so any time she got downed again meant instant death. I'd much rather sacrifice Sid's bitch ass.

Jack seems like he'll make the last fights much easier once you level him up enough. I do hate how Sid or Mikayla have some stupid line any time he quotes. Yes, I'm quoting him, I get it. So far I can see it having the same big problem I had on PC, there doesn't seem to be much reason to ever keep more 2-3 extra people in your roster, because you don't really need them and there aren't enough missions and side missions to level everyone up.
