So... how's the combat system?
I have not gone too far into the game, but what little I have done is grindy very very grindy, leveling is pretty easy, xp gains from fights are ok, but the money stinks, sure things are not too expensive, but for the most part you seem to get about 5gp from a single enemy fight (ice caves), and they hit hard, expect to loose about 1/2 to 2/3 of your hp every battle for single enemies and more with multiples enemies, and the ice cave boss at level 5 hits like a tank, they seem to do about 1/5 or so of my hp per hit. Oh and you are supposed to be a mage but only get heal and cure to start with, so you are in effect smakiing everything you fight with a big stick aka staff.
And when you get back to town you can not rest in the characters home bed, nope you have to get a room in the inn for reasons, one thing that really annoys me in games where the player character has a home where they are adventuring around but are expected to pay to rest in an inn.
Edit, got a bit further into the game, killed two of the bosses and the cost of stuff gets insane compared to the bonuses it provides, got a couple of free outfits from various npc's which appear to do nothing relative the the original one, to be honest I am just going to delete and ignore this game, the combat is just too tedious, and the equipment upgrades pretty much do nothing much considering just how expensive they are, there are what look like serious stat and bonus upgrades you can buy but at 50k or so per pop, not going to be bought any time soon,
