Just started playing. Just un-petrified Kaine. I'm not really a big fan of her because her dialogue is just awful and it sounds like her voice actress is trying to hard to make it work. Combat is decent, but nothing more than that.

@Blues: That thing your friend was doing was an irrelevant sidequest that only gives you money that you can easily get much more of just by selling shit.

Weiss, Emil, and the protagonist are all incredibly likable characters. I can't stand Kaine, but everyone else is a pretty damn good person. There was one odd moment where Emil after we'd only really seen him once before is talking about how he'll never forget Weiss, even though he only knew Weiss for like half an hour.

Upgrading's a pain in the bitch, and the sidequests are wholly pointless, but other than that it's not bad. Of course, the first five minutes of the game felt like a jRPG version of The Road, and I really miss that. I do like how the game is constantly changing what game it is. Now I'm a text based adventure! Now I'm Legend of Zelda! Now I'm Touhou! Etc.
