I dont want to spoil the story line for you, but around chapter 9 or 10 you meet the princess... and then the medal system is unlocked from there

Ok. Thanks and please don't.

@ kutasek

That's how the game is. It grows on you. You don't want to stop playing b/c you get pepped up for the next fight.

Wow, I'm blown away, there's so much strategy in this game. Personally i like it more than MGS4. It's been a long time that a game was so good it was hard to stop playing it. I hope, it gets decent legs.

I need more time to play this game. I'm only on Ch. 4. :(

37k for first in America is pretty good imo. It's going shoot past 150k in America. It has a outside shot at 500k!!!!

37K was way worse than I expected... it's almost like Disgaea 3 Sells??? what the hell??? Do people really think Disgaea 3 is on par with this besides the fact you can get to level 9999??? >_>

C'mon gamers, see THE LIGHT!!!

Its actually the exact opposite for me, I have a very limited time to actually play games these days (I'm at work btw xD) and the episodic nature of this game gives me an exact 'break' I can aim for. So far, there is never a point in this game where I nash my teeth in fustration because I cannot decide a breakpoint for my session without losing sleep. Its like I am watching an anime episode with each chapter! Brilliant!

I agree, but the it's like 24 for me. Yeah there is episodes, but that doesn't change the fact that I want to watch it til I pass out.

Eh, it is a very niche game and has a (small) chance of FE: RD.

Though this is a niche genre, but this kind of sales??? I mean c'mon... disgaea 3 in Japan sold like 1/2 of what VC sold in Japan. and In America what do we have? About the same sales... VC's concept, gameplay, everything is MUCH more suited in the western gaming industry than say Disgaea 3, which is the very niche of the genre. This just leaves me very confused.
