I'm up to chapter 6 now. The main issue is less a problem with the game and more myself; I simply don't have the right kind of reflexes and brain wiring to be able to get the most out of the combat system in the way a better player would. The more advanced stuff is just too complicated for me to process at once in the heat of battle. Thankfully, I can get by on casual difficulty. I may not be able to maximise the combat system myself but I can still appreciate its brilliance.

Most people play it on Casual the first time anyway, I certainly wouldn't advise Pt Standard for anyone who isn't big into hack n' slash games and wants a challenge. There's a lot to appreciate about the game apart from its challenges. Certainly a lot to appreciate in File 6.

Yeah I am really liking the policework, exploration, and other side activities that flesh out the world and add variety to the gameplay. In most games I just skip over the sidequests, but in Astral Chain I've completed quite a few as they're mostly satisfying little chunks that don't waste my time.
