Just completed the demo. Not much to say about the non-combat part it but it's good for an introduction.
The combat took a bit of getting used to, but overall was pretty good for an early alpha demo. I think my only frustration was when D'Arc got completely surrounded by enemies. While the #3 spell could prevent this, I found that if I didn't have enough mana for it it was basically game over. I couldn't consume the mana potion when I was being bludgeoned from all sides / couldn't run away. I suppose it is realistic but still a bit frustrating when there's no way out. I don't know if some sort of roll / dodge option could be implemented to help with this.
I'm also curious what Strength will do since there wasn't any melee attack option. Are there plans to implement a melee attack of some kind? I think it would be good if there was one; I know D'Arc is a mage, not a warrior, so perhaps make it much weaker than spells or simply stun the enemies so the player always has a strong incentive to use magic.
Anyway, I'm really looking forward to the game.
