gamesfreak64,

Apologies, was trying out the demo and did not come back until more recently and saw your post. Thank you though, tremere110. I hope you both are getting a chance to enjoy the demo as well.

On a side note, from the time spent on the demo, I am liking the feel of the game.

Pros:
1) Clear explanations for vast majority of the abilities and stats in game (for most, there are still that might require clarification)
2) During battle, there is a bar that shows when your characters' turns are coming up.
3) Each character has a different set of abilties, strengths and weaknesses, a good portion of which you can tweak.
4) You can customize your party of three from a pool of individuals. This pool grows over time.
5) Detailed and easy to access UI that separates information as well as makes it easy to read through.
-a) Party Information including party formation, experience level, stats, etc.
-b) Party Inventory including equiped items, selected combat ablities, inventory for combat (i.e. potions, revives), etc.
-c) Crafting for armor, accessories, weapons, etc.
-d) Character information (stats gained depending on the level of the individual), enemy information (stats, weaknesses, strengths, etc.)
6) There are options to turn on/off certain graphical selections such as camera shaking, zooming, etc. A good amount of thought was placed into this.
7) Lots of ingame help available (in the form of information) for most things.

There's quite a few more but you get the gist.

Pros/cons depending on your preferences:
1) Turn-based
2) Crafting system (some items can only be built by building weaker items first and then building from that - this leads to a bit of grind to collect material to craft certain items)
3) Random generation of map layout. Each time you start an area, you can choose its difficulty. Regardless of difficulty, no map is the same. When you leave the map (whether you complete it or not), it resets.
4) The game, true to its concept, has a 'sin' system. If you do something that can potentially increase your sin level (up to level 5), you will feel its affect in the game (higher difficulty enemies, less money, etc. - this is all explained when you mouse over the sin level).

I feel all the above is a positive but there may be others that may feel otherwise (which is perfectly fine!).

Cons (mostly minor so far):
1) Voice actor is clearly trying but it is evident that he may be new to it
2) Some of the writing can do with a bit of polish (mainly grammatical)
3) Some dialog options could use a bit of polish (i.e. When talking to someone, to end the conversation, they offer the option to " Abandon ". A better way to do this is replace it with " <end conversation/dialogue> " or " We will come back later " or the like.
4) When equiping items, full stats increases/decreases are not reflected in the Party Information screen. This is my biggest con so far.

Despite all this or perhaps because of it, I feel the game would be worth the full price. On a related note, Is there a way to disable the discount when purchasing the game?
