I just got it this afternoon. About 2 hours in and so far I'm liking it. Combats awesome, have no opinion on the story yet, and the voice acting isn't god-awful, yet.
Wondering if anyone else bought it and is liking it.

I bought it, but it's being shipped by Amazon.  Might be another day or two yet.

I'm 8 hours in and liking it a lot.  It feels nearly as solid as Tales of Vesperia, but it's more interesting, I feel more captivated.

Yeah, Tales of Vesperia is a really good comparison.  But, it doesn't have the same cartoony look and stuff is a little more believable, albeit sci fi...but more realistic looking.  I'm loving the game so far.

Yeah I think I will, although haven't seen any footage of it actually being played but I really want a good rpg to sink my  teeth into

I felt the same way.  It's something good to hold you over until FF13 comes out...whenever that will be.

I'm surprised at the sheer amount of depth to the game.  Collecting and creating alone have sucked up a lot of my time.  I like the story, but I'm not a huge fan of the characters.  They just don't really stand out.  And my other beef is with the sometimes wonky camera angles, though it's never really enough of a problem to ruin the experience.

Overall, I think if you like JRPG's, you'll dig the heck out of this game.  Fun stuff!

I'm really surprised with this game, its better than I thought it would be.
I think I just got to the final dungeon. Combat is still awesome, the story is good but nothing spectacular (IMO), and the voice acting is.... well.... I wish Meracle would die. Honestly I can't stand her voice.

I got it, 40 hours in...mid-way through the second disk or so.  I like it so far but the field camera is really annoying since.  Typical roleplay, good story, characters some people will love and hate (battle wise) - I would suggest you pick it up.  Impossible achievements though - more so to 100% the game, I dont see anyone doing it for a very long time.

I'm looking forward to getting this when it finally comes to Europe

No, no one bought this game.  You are the only person on this site who has it.

I'm about 40 hours in.. I love the combat. I feel like there are enough options to keep it interesting. The story is good, but some of the voice acting is comical.

I just beat it.
All in all its an alright game, and I really enjoyed playing it. I will play more (optional dungeons) just to get more of the combat which is trully the games best part. In the beginning I liked the characters but towards the end I started to get really annoyed with every one of them and some of the ending cut scenes were almost painful to watch. Thats just my opinion though. Maybe I will write a review sometime with my entire thoughts.

I seem to be the odd man out on this situation, I think the combat is pretty average, maybe even worse. I'm more of a turn-base RPG kind of guy, but I feel this game is too easy, especially when it comes to the combat. I only hope this is the case because I'm only 7 hours in.
