This game is simply amazing.A masterpiece that balances humour,storyline and a decent gameplay and voice acting happens alot in the game unlike a number of RPGs in PSP.The characters you choose will allow you to view different side scenes and you can only have a certain character at a time.Which means you will be playing this game again and again.The game might be pathetically unchallenging at first but at the later part of the game,it is when your RPG instincts kick in.There are different armours and those armour that have high defence doesn't always mean that the armour is powerful.Luck,Guts and other attributes is to be taken into account.The humour in this game,isn't part of the storyline.You'll have to keep going to cities and towns you gone before to see new scenes and some of them are quite hilarious.There is also a large bunch of skills that your characters have to learn and there is a feature called "Specialty" and "Super Specialty" which your party can create items for themselves or do a certain special effect.The ending is also impacted by how close you are to your party members and you will have to scurry around the map alot to actually get characters that might appear in cities you visited before.Though this game is more or less meant for RPG lovers,if you dislike RPGs,you should not get this game.
