Well, first of all, I must say more 5 hours later because it's the time I played this great game. My first impressions of this game : Great !(nearly awesome)
This game it's a mix between Final Fantasy and Tales Games. Final Fantasy for the graphic and the story, tales games for the gameplay and other minor stuff like item creation.
Graphics are great but not awesome(I'm a big fan of SE so maybe I've expected to much). But gameplay is really what I like the much about this game. You control your player like in a tale game but in a full-time action (like in FF12, every monsters is on the map which mean very rapid game, but fast I mean really fast because the time between attacks is the time you take to smash the buttons of your controller). The AI for your allies is OK, they aren't genious but they are not dummies too. The most important is that you can press only one button to demand to allies to heal everyone.
Other interesting thing is the number of allies who fought in the same time. From what I've seen so far, your party can be 12 characters who fought in the same time. This mean big battlefield with a lot of peoples and fun battles

.
By battlefield, I must say that the maps are very, very big(maybe too big).
It's just a little appreciation of the game, I'll write about it again when I'll play a little more.
Try it, it really worth it
P.S.Sorry for the very bad quality(grammar and syntax) of my text, I took something like one minute to write it down and english it's not my language(but it's not a excuse).
