Literally only just started and I quite like it so far. The real time battles are fun - the options in approach keep it away from "hack and slash" though I've been playing it a lot like one so far. I need to get used to the controls.

Starting with a party of three has been kinda strange - especially when they're all equipped and ready - it's clearly not necessary to play as Ace but with the way the opening cutscene plays out you feel kinda obligated - is there no main protagonist here?
