Hi Sarah.
You can view the stats of skills in the game without difficulty by reading
their mouse over text, that however is not the problem in terms of
atmsophere.
You'll be fighting a nasty boss, and be told "nemesis uses black drane" you
can mouse over "black drane" to tell you that it has a chance of inflicting
drain or poison, and raises your characters afinity to dark element, but
that doesn't tell you what "black drane" actually is, which, given the fact
your fighting a boss is rather disappointing. Yes, you can look it up, but
only when the battle is finished.
Same goes with items, you get all the stats but none of the atmosphere.
That's my only major issue with the game, that the battles basically feel
more like a card game than an actual representation of battle since your not
really told much. Of course the card game is a distinctly good one and
requires lots of concentration to play, but it is still a little
disappointing in this respect, particularly because the characters and story
are! indeed very interesting and quite unique.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.
