I don't really agree with that line of thinking. the problem with "first order strategy's" is twofold; they generally take away options.
But they don't really take away options. You can still smoke the game with crazy damage using Verso, Sciel, Lune, and Morroco. They all have insane capabilities. Once you get Chevalam on Verso, you can turn 1 Phantom Stars and wipe out an entire fucking screen of mobs.

Finished the game today. Incredible experience; just over 50 hours for 99% complete on Expeditioner difficulty.

You're a better man than me. Just started Act 3, doing the optional stuff for companion rep and just getting absolutely socked on the easiest difficulty. I just have so much trouble getting past a lot of the fights with like 10 different attacks, all with feints,etc. I'm sure I have to level and gear up a bit more for the optional stuff, so I'll go back to the main quest :p

Same thing happened to me on my first playthrough. Now on my second, it is going a lot easier since I am aware of more Picto/Lumina combinations to build for, and now I'm at Sirene with zero issues at all (not that Act 1 - 2 has any real difficulty).

Beat it today with 52 hours played, but did all the side content/bosses and probably had around 4-5 hours of AFK time in there.

Easily my GOTY and definitely the best game since ER. #Renoirwasright and if you picked the Maelle ending you're a sadistic piece of shit.

P.S. Lune with cheater, elemental trick, and elemental genesis carried hard for me. I never used the busted Stendahl stuff, just blasted the fuck out of things with Lune.

This is probably the best game i’ve ever played, saying that as an adult who doesn’t play anything much anymore. In fucking sane. Music and story are like 100/10, combat being like 7/10 but shit who cares with all that other greatness.

Please lord let this studio put out a sequel that’s even half as good. Writers vs musicians?
