So, several sites are reporting that Freedom wars is selling very well and even moving some systems. The feedback so far seems very positive, though some mentioned the game ranks up the difficulty during the second half of the game.
Also, the game is very story heavy(that's great ^^) more than God eater and has a variety of different missions (pvp, rescue, monter hunting etc...).
