![]() There is a LOT of backtracking-like, it’s 75% of the game-and I got super frustrated before I looked up how to lower encounters. Three steps and then a fight when you move ridiculously slow on the overworld map is a hard no. Immediately change that shit when you can via the Scout skill. Encounter rate is insanely high and annoying. There were multiple times where Roddick just ran in a circle around the enemies like 5 times before finally attacking because they were moving. Change that shit to semi-auto as fast as you can. ![]() Targeting during battle is badddd on auto. Surprisingly effective-great at healing quickly, casting offensive spells, and attacking.

My party setup: Other than the required characters (Roddick, Millie, Ilia, Ronyx), I went with Ashlay, Ioshua, Erys, and Pericci. The only other SO I’ve played through is Last Hope International, and I liked that one quite a bit. That’s about where the similarities end, though, because the story-telling is just nowhere near as effective or powerful, at least in this installment.
