Combat was surprisingly clunky compared to BD2, felt let down by this game. Outside of Edea being great, and some of the NPC personalities being interesting, it felt like everything this game did, BD2 did better. The concept of the vampire kind of copying mystics from Saga Frontier wasn't unnoticed by me but by the time I got the job I felt like there wasn't much else to do for battles. I'm actually skipping pillow battles and some other stuff that doesn't look particularly interesting, I got to see a couple endings in any case and that's good enough for me. Really annoyed that this is basically the original game plus 2 mini games. I mean not only is it lacking content but what is there is frustrating and doesn't feel like role playing to me, at least in regards to story progression. It felt like the game was continuously dangling some unseen choice in front of us and finally I got tired of it at the start of chapter 7 and looked up the answer which is more or less one of the things I thought about doing, but wasn't sure if it would work and was averse to trying it out for an awkward reason. I suppose if I wasn't playing more than one game at a time, I would have done the thing much sooner, although part of me was scared to find out just how annoying the game could get(I can't explain without spoiling the answer).
