@JoeTang Did you play f or just the original Wii version?
EDIT: Apparently I don't know how to do the @person command things.
EDIT2: I hadn't messed with the difficulty at all until you guys mentioned it. I'm used to the other tales games, where each difficulty difference is stark but only for challenge/fun in New Game+'s and such. Everyone seems to be playing on Hard, so I gave it a shot. It's surprisingly manageable, and I like that fights last longer than 15 seconds now. However, this was shortly before getting to Wallbridge, so the boss there was a huge bastard (I was level 21) and I hadn't had the benefit of better drops/LP up to that point. Had to burn my All-divide to beat him, and there were still some deaths. What a jerk.
