They had me at new extremely hard SRPG that's looking to bring back what they've been missing. Then I read that it comes from vets of FFT and Ogre Tactics with new linking systems...Screen shots show the best graphics I've seen for this genre too. Re-spec your characters for each individual battle? Online competitive play that goes cross platforms!? I know there's some RPG and SRPG heads on this board...how come I haven't heard of this yet...y'all slacking or did I miss the thread (in which case mods can lock or merge this or whatever).

Anyway, this might be my most anticipated upcoming title...I'm an RPG head through and through and SRPG's are my favorite kind. So I figured I'd try to put y'all on.

They basically name dropped all the great SRPG's of recent years except for Disgaea which makes sense because that's probably their main competition. I'm hype for online play.

Main complaints I see are story and difficulty...I'm a lil worried about lack of story but difficulty is what I need bc I'm too used to these joints already. Plus with SRPGs, I really need a hands on to make my own judgement because there aren't as many hardcore SRPG fans out there imo so a lot of opinions don't work with my own tastes.
