Finish the game!!!
-Or i will come to your house!!! No, I'm just kidding. :P
But seriously, it is an epicly sweet game with a super kick-ass combat system. Maybe you should use stat points to make it liklier to do a counter attack. I personally dont mind being interrupted by having so many battles while walking around but it seems that it may put a bit of a snag in the game play quality. Anyhow This is honestly my favourite game on the internet now!
Keep going man! :)
