You should see the camera before they fixed it. It was even WORSE!

I know the guy in the Command HQ says there are very powerful rewards to getting lots of SPP. Do you know how useful these rewards are?
I won't lie, I wasn't enjoying myself in Chapter 1. The camera and obtuse tutorial system left me a little cold. But now I've been given some freedom in chapter 2 (after the first RTS segment) and everything's clicking.
Changed the lock on to only require a press of R1 and not a hold, and I'm using R2 and L2 to change targets which is making me stress less about the camera. Motion blur still isn't too nice but it's ok for me. Turned off support characters, they confused me and as far as I can tell just make you miss out on XP. More importantly, I got to explore the world map and this game is a lot more "Final Fantasy" than I thought. Sidequests, grinding...I enjoyed going to the towns and helping people, even if each town has no personality and the world map is barren. It's still a lot more enjoyable than I was finding it a few hours ago. Mechanics like the arena and the chocobo stables seem like they will be quite engaging later on.
I'm kind of glad I'm unable to access the XV demo in the UK yet, or I don't think I'd have given this as much of a chance. It's getting better.

VERY. I got two SPP weapons for Sice and Seven, which added +43 Attack to each one, one had a Freeze effect and the other a Poison effect. So yeah.... Keep the Backup characters on. The SPP weapons are CRAZY good

I mentioned this earlier but nobody seemed to take notice. There was a cutscene on the Terrace of Akademia before you do the first mission, and I'm fairly certain
was in the cutscene. I hope I'm not right, because that really makes me want to vommit if they actually did that.
Lightning
Ahh, thank you for this post. I'll admit I was not paying much attention for a bit in chapter 1 and then went to my first mission. I was confused as to why the party I selected started getting replaced lol. Now, I can go back and actually complete it with my selections.
That wasn't lightning. lol
It's Seven, she and Lightning share a very, very similar design. However Seven is a much better character.

One thing I think I should mention since there've been some theories here that don't make sense: magic or summoning is not an L'Cie think in the Type-0 universe, L'Cie are essentially Dragon Ball characters in this game
I think you confused Seven for Lightning, understandable since Seven looks like Lightning's missing sister

Or he means Emina. But yeah, Seven looks very similar (Tabata talked about the intended similar design, but Seven is actually likeable).
Nah, if it's the cutscene on the terrace after the tutorial it's Seven talking to Rem and Machina.

If you can get over the story making no real sense, the combat is really fun.
I think the terminology screws me up.

And in comparison JP Queen is Ami Koshimizu. GIANT DIFFERENCE. D:
From Type Zero wiki
That doesn't equate to Colette voice/Heather Hogan!

Yeah, I think I'm going to pass on this game.
Oh I didn't even see he said it was before the first mission. I really ought to read better.

Are there supposed to be enemies in the overworld other than the Level 99 Horned Creatures?
Right now more people have the trophy to complete an overworld encounter than the trophy to complete chapter 2. Is my game glitched? Not a single overworld enemy in Rumrub.

A lot of the 99 level monsters on the overworld are easy to beat, wait for kill-sight.
Should be any random battle.

Oh. Okay. There's an encounter system but it only works if you don't ride Chocobos. I've been breeding them like crazy so I haven't been on foot the entire game.

I wish you could turn off the motion blur, I feel like that's the main issue I have with the camera.
just go up to it and there should be a prompt to open it.

omg, are you serious? I suddenly don't mind the english narrator anymore =P
Oh, for the treasure chest, I know the one, it's total bs.
Basically lock on to the enemy, go next to the treasure chest, hold lock-on and press up on the D-Pad.
Doing that allows you to lock at the nearest thing, which will be the chest.

EVERY BODY SHOULD CHANGE THE LOCK ON OPTION TO TOGGLE INSTEAD OF HOLD!!
Seriously, it makes a huge difference, holding down the button had been a bit cumbersome, didn't think to see if there was an option, thanks zennyzz for the heads up.

four moves
Square: Attack
X and Triangle: Magic/Character unique skill
O: Defensive move. (block, cure or wall if you don't have a directional input) Dodge with directional input
Each character have unique skills, attack animations, movement speeds, defense, magic stats, hp etc. The only universal constant between them is defense and magic(this depends on their magic level though)
R1 is to lock onto an enemy. When an enemy dies you can harvest their phantoma(think drawing from FF8) to do damage to surrounding enemies and regain mp.
You can swap characters with <- and ->

Game definitely looks like an upscaled PSP game, but I really like the gameplay. It has this really nice flow to it. What a shame SE held onto this from me for so long.
Edit: Prelude just kicked in and it will always sound amazing.

it's pretty much where a lion's share of the info come from. Usually takes me about 8 hours to get to chapter 3 just because I'm talking with everyone.

Damn, this intro is heavy. But the game's theme song gives me chills, so gooooood
I know what the buttons do but is there any synergy, combos, or depth with them that isn't immediately apparent? Like, I thought it was cool with the card guy to blink in and Blizz and then run away.
each character has their unique traits, yeah. You're going to need to practice with them to figure them out however. I can't go into depth for each of them, so the best thing to do is to try out the arena when it becomes available to test out each PC to get a good grasp of how their skills work.
