First half of this game is pure magic especially blind. The brave combat system is gold being able to do nearly anything you want if you are willing to gamble it. Unlocking classes and having your characters evolve their party roles over time as you unlock skills on different classes on different guys at different times constantly mixes up the experience. After you "beat the game the first time it does slow down a bit with very few late game classes but its remedied by being able to skip 90% of the game each subsequent loop. Still should have toned the loops required for the true ending down by 2 maybe 3.
