Heh, I dumped on quite literally 10 hours of gameplay in a single day on this. Ugh, I have no life!

So yeah, 27 hours, 54 minutes I believe is the exact time.

Basically just arrived at the 'EXPERIMENTAL STAFF' area.

Ben, I agree with the voice acting up to a point... Kaim is where I disagree... LMAO, for some reason I feel like the lines are simply being read off the page. He's gotten a little better since Numara, but sometimes it's flat.

Mack and Cooke could be considered the worst of the voice acting though. Well, that is unless you're used to being around children that age. LOL, in that case the practically nailed the 8yr old girl with a 6yr old brother right on the head. I speak from experience! I find it humerous even more when Mack knows things his older sister is not even aware of! The CS where they were singing was making me think "ugh, this is bad singing" and then I realized... Wait... That's how it really would sound for kids that age to be singing! They got it right!

I do have to say the time between Tosca and Saman was difficult for me at times. Multiple enemies with high HP that doing aoe/party damage such as All-SPELL or placing physically immune enemies up front, etc... Taking time to have your skills aquired becomes a need.

Most of my group is approaching level 30, Kaim and Seth have learned just about everything there is.

Ben, as for what you mentioned about Ming and Sarah...
Essentially all 4 immortals are paired. There is almost little difference between Kaim and Seth, other than some minor stat differences. The same goes for Ming and Sarah. Although we ignore the fact Kaim and Seth are so much alike because well... They're the only heavy melee we have! Mack is a front row melee too, but he's support-melee really. Sarah right out of the box though is a Cooke-Jansen hybrid. Ming out of the package was well... I'm not sure. Filler? The ability to custom mix and match makes it that way though. We have 2 melee, 1 support melee, and 4 mages to use however you really want. Think of it this way. Once they max out Jansen and Cooke's abilities, you'll have 2 immortals at hand that can well... Be customized a little better. This will leave the 2 mortals out of the picture (well, most likely). As for the 5th, it's purely choice then. Mack or another full blown mage.

I've been using...
KAIM - SETH
MING - JANSEN - SARAH

Anyways. Not too long till DISC 3.

Side Note: I've obtained all 60 seeds up to where I am, and pretty sure I've gotten most all treasures. I spend alot of time searching for things so I don't miss it. Alot of time spent on doing the npc quests in towns and whatnot, checking and rechecking I got everything I can find.
