My Thoughts on Ni No Kuni Demo

So today I woke up, watched some videos on the new Skyrim Dragonborn DLC with my girlfriend's brother, and afterwards, derped around on Valkyria Chronicles for a while. 

I have been waiting to play Ni No Kuni for months now, and I have been extremely excited about it, with me being a huge Miyazaki fan and Studio Ghibli. 

Finally today I downloaded the demo from PSN and I was extremely excited about it. I had looked into the basis of what Ni No Kuni was about, and what the battle system is, but I had no idea how to work it once I started.

I began playing in the first section where Oliver fights the Guardian of the Woods. I was then screaming at the TV. lol I took control of one of my little monsters(excuse me i dont know what they are called) and i was having a horrible time with the game.

Soon after I died a couple times I got a hang of the game mechanics and battle system and started playing in the next fire area, which was timed as you fight to make your way up the fiery mountain, to fight the boss Moltaan.

Besides the boss fights, Ni No Kuni was beautiful. Absolutely remarkable. The surroundings were amazing, and lively, colorful, calming, and exciting. In my own words I quote "This is one SEXY ass game."

I have yet to pre-order Ni No Kuni, and I wish beyond all belief that I was able to sum up an amount of 100 dollars when the Wizard's Edition of the game came out, but alas, I will have to settle for getting the gamestop version for 60 with the additional metal case, or wait until the price drops.

Although I have noticed a pattern in new generation console JRPGS that stores will soon sell out, or stop selling them, and there are very few on Ebay/amazon that are fairly priced at all... I am also wanting to have the Magic Book that originally comes with the Wizard's Edition, but knowing how ebayer's go, the wizards edition book will most likely be 40 or 50 dollars just by itself when the game comes out.

Unless I can get some extra cash, or my job starts to decide on giving me any hours at all I do not believe I will be able to get Ni No Kuni the first day, but either way I am going to be keeping an eye on it because Ni No Kuni looks well worth any wait.
