I went ahead and started playing Star Ocean after being really disappointed in Crisis Core and ultimately deciding to delete it.
The game started out pretty easy with a healer and all, but once you lose the healer, shit kinda hits the fan. At the same time you lose the healer, you are left poor and defenseless to make it to the next town. Thankfully, the stuff is all fairly easy to kill. Now that I'm at about the third town (one with the coliseum), I have to wonder how I made it this far.
The game is really difficult to the point where my main character (Roddick) is the only one who can really take a hit, as he is the only character that can have a complete armor set (so far). At level 20, stuff around here can still kind of bring the smack down. I'm also not sure where the level cap is if I'm hitting this level so early on. I am impressed though. It reminds me of old school RPG's in the respect that it's fairly unforgiving. So much so, when I made the mistake of getting Game Over (damn mine on the mountain), my PSP did a super freeze. xD
I'm level grinding at this point while I try to figure out the skill system a little but more. I keep buying sets of skills, but then I don't know what to try to focus on after. At least some skills are self explanatory enough that I know to put points into them.
Fun game so far.
