I just got done playing the demo for a bit. The graphics are similar to Dragon Quest VIII, which is a great thing if you're a fan of cel-shading. The voice acting's not bad either, but I can see myself getting sick of the random comments made by the characters when traveling. I've heard people say that it plays like a more fast-paced Dark Cloud 2/Dark Chronicle, but having never played that, I can compare it to Secret of Mana with random battles. Hit the attack button to attack, obviously. The other characters can perform special attacks when pressing L1 or L2 upon being prompted.

I look very forward to this, whenever the hell it comes out. xD
