Finally finished story mode...I literally had three seconds before my battery gave out. I almost made the same mistake as Levi in the manga. I gotta say that this game was pretty good overall. Not as good as I have hoped but still good nonetheless.
I dont know whether to say the power balance between the characters is good or bad. Sure, it may seem like some characters have a big advantage over some others but at the same time its what makes the battle interesting...? Though I still think Nanoha's long range attacks are a little too much and Presea's defense is ridiculously low. Though I was glad that Einhart was a pretty well balanced character seeing as she's the #1 reason I bought the game. She's good at close range combat and while her long range attack "Kuuhadan" isnt that fast or powerful she can take her opponents attack and throw it back with her "Senshouha". The only things I didnt like about her character is her o button long range move, "Tsunagarenu Kobushi" aka Unchain Knuckle in the "Vivid" manga. Sure, it prevents her from staggering from attack and halves magical damage for 5~10secs (depending on if you charged it or not) but I was expecting it to be a counter bind move, as in she'd break free from a bind and counter with a blast, like in the manga. Another disappointing thing about her was that there was no alternate costume for her. orz. I was expecting her previous look, before Asteon changed her hair style. I'm also enjoying playing as Levi, Hayate, Kyrie, and Vita. I've still yet to unlock Yuuri, Vivio, Alph, and Presea. Levi in her Sprite form is rather ridiculously powerful but I dont feel cheap using it like when playing as Nanoha and alternating between Accel Shoot and Buster. I do hope to see more character in a future title of the series, or maybe if we're lucky, as DLCs. I'd really like to see characters from the manga series, especially from the "Vivid" series. I think that characters like Corona, Shante, and Els have unique moves to offer. Ofcourse I'm hoping for Rio, Miura, Mikaya, and Harry as well. Characters from "Force"? Ummm, I dont see why not but...if they did Force version Nanoha, Fate, and etc. then the already awkward power balance would become even more unbalanced. I can totally see Force version Nanoha KOing Presea with one attack, thats not her Drive attack. ..."future title"...am I the only person thinking that its going to be on the PSVita and that they're going to create a Nanoha x PSVita bundle with a red PSVita?

After seeing trailers for that fanmade Subaru game, I can't see why she couldn't be in this game or another one following it.
What would her moveset be? Revolver Shoot for Square, ACS for her Triangle, Divine Buster for her close-range grab, Oscillating Breaker for her Full Drive Burst... |

Could have easily had Otto and Deed in this game.
Could have worked like the Lieze Twins... Deed for close range and when it got to long range, swap to Otto. It's not like the game makers didn't make up moves for some of the characters after all.

Just a director quip, they chose the twins cause it'd be the only game they'd fit in right now.
Curious thing if they make another sequel, will it be between A's and strikers? Or will they join the TSAB? That's a lot of characters, I love when they make new ones instead of using existing stock x_x

The reason why the Sts crew ain't in the game is because they can't fly. As for the numbers, maybe it is because they don't fit into the story too well since you already have 4 characters for the future representing their own series. Touma and Lily for Force, Vivio fo Sts and Einhart for Vivid so I think they do not want to break this yet.
Speaking of which, it would be funny if Touma, Vivio and Einhart develop a relationship like Nanoha, Fate and Hayate since they seem to be reflecting them when they were young. |

Then Touma will just suffer the fate of Hayate, whom also got shafted from the limelight, shown as weak and useless despite being a nuke and almost forgotten by all her friends? This is really a good start right?
Besides, in canon, the old trio are suppose to be very close friends, so I don't see why the new ones cannot be. Vivio and Einhart can be paired together by fanon and Touma can just continue his journey with Lily and Isis. Of course, if fans scream murder because of this then Touma can be shafted like all the males of the series like Chrono, Yunno and Zafira and that is dumb as he is suppose to be the main character. |

...I hope that the reason that they didnt add some of the other characters was because they couldnt fly...whomever said that all battles had to take place in the air? Besides Subaru has "Wing Road" so why couldnt they integrate that? I mean c'mon, a Nanoha fighting game and no Subaru?!
