I played for a couple more hours last night...

The negative status effects you can use on your enemies are things like "Weakened," "Vulnerable," "Distracted," "Sluggish," and so on. 

On top of this, your characters have four stats apart from HP/PP: Attack, Defense, Speed, and Luck. Attack and Defense are not exactly what you think they are - they are actually Accuracy and Evasion, respectively. At each level up, you get one point to add to any of these four stats.

I have two frustrations in most battles: my characters miss a lot, and at level 6 my characters only have about 8-10 PP each, which is only enough to do two moves or so. Tails has an ability that heals 6 PP over the course of three turns (and costs him 5 PP to use), and you find a fair amount of PP restoring items, but it can get annoying having to restore it constantly. Most characters can learn a move that has 100% accuracy, so in order to hit some of the more agile enemies, you may have to use these moves often and keep restoring PP.

Anyway, what I'm getting at is: at this point in the game, it seems like Attack is the best stat to dump points in to just be able to kill most enemies off a lot faster and easier.

Defending gives back like 6PP/round early game, if your character spends two actions defending.  Tails' medibot seems okay early game.  I'm still not sure what the difference between Hyper and whatever buff Amy's kiss gives.

probably because i don't have the manual and ignored that part where someone mentioned that the in-game menu will tell you, somewhere

Requesting all Sonic RPG discussion gets split. By all accounts it is apparently pretty rad and thus has no place in this thread.

Or just rename the thread to what it's actually about.

Eh, it'd be a better trailer without that hair metal.  Sega must be single-handedly keeping terrible metal bands around.

Okay... yeah.  I mean most of the time the butt-rock is oddly catchy if pretty embarrassing, but that was just all around bad.

And damn, I did not realize the game was actually SONIC THE HEDGEHOG HAS A SWORD.  I thought the sword was, like, a plot element, or something.  I mean... I mean... I mean he's already covered in fucking swords.  It's like giving The Pain a giant stinger, or making a robot with a huge shoulder cannon whose special ability is turning into a tiny handgun.

Not just that, but did we mention the sword is a magical talking sword?  More info is required before we can establish the level of wise-crackiness.

Never using her, or just insulting her at every opportunity?
