I tend to find good RPGs that dont lose pace as you progress, dont make you spend time leveling up as long as you've spent reasonable time exploring and not running away. as long as i explore and level normally there wont be loads of times where i am forced to remove myself from the story to level. right?

its an impressive game and i think i'll get it. almost definetly. it seems gripping enough and the simplicity seems effective for such a semi-light hearted game.
