I liked it until I hit the Grind curve... I HATE grinding game... and you hit the grinding curve pretty fast in this game...
I played a LOT, done all the exploration I could do on that part where I was in the story, bought all the best gear the stores could provide... I even "abused" an exploit to get cash fast so I could buy the best gear and weapons the game was offering... and still the "normal" mobs kicks my ass five ways to sunday if I try to continue the story mode and venture "where I am supposed to go"... and so, I need to grind much more... after about 12-15h I stopped playing and lost interest... story is very "meh" the sexy thing you do with hostess is kinda shamefull... not my thing really... the combat is ok but the AI is questionable.... traveling system is bad... you walk around for hours from one place to the other... sometime a mission ask you to "go to a certain place" and for some reason, there's no arrow nothing to tell you where to go... so either check on the net a FAQ or walk around aimlessly until you stublle upon the mission.
Wasnt my greatest experience RPG game on the vita...
I'd personally tell you to wait for a better RPG to come along... or get a good one already out... I liked a lot Dragon's Crown... more beat them up wth RPG element... I heard good about the Persona serie, but it's not my thing... Y's looked awesome if you asked me... and the recently releasted HD remake of Final Fantasy X...
