I have probably put in about 12 hours to this game already. There isn't anything fancy or special about it, it's just a good solid RPG. The first Person dungeon explore mode is made simple to access, the bottom screen allows you to draw the map out and plot points so that you know where everything is once you have found it. That way you can get back to it quickly if you suddenly get a mission for it. Other then that its just your regular turn based rpg with up to 12 different character classes to use in your party. I enjoy it a lot, but it is definatly not for everyone, it is a slow paced game and can be very challenging at times. Noting that give it a go, you may very well enjoy this.
I never beat the first game because it was so challenging but I see that they made this game not nearly as bad, but that being said, the one recommendation I can make to you on this game is do your best to not die. Its costly. You don't make a lot of money very easily at the beginning of the game and the last thing you want to do is spend it on reviving your characters instead of buying better gear so you can survive longer. Save a lot, and be ready to reload if your guys get dead because its better to replay sections of the game then to lose your valuable money.
