I really appreciate it when a game manages to give the player the opportunity to learn organically: that is, education through experience. As an example, there are a few stats in this game and many skills to complement them, but I have almost no idea what are good numbers for these stats or skills, nor do I know the range or scaling. What I DO know, just from these first few floors, is that skills increase through use, that they're attached to particular uses (such as attacking for weapon-related skills or fixing/releasing a machine for mechanical skill), and that certain skills are emphasized for the class I'm playing. Already I can see the hard decision of trying to open crates when there's a small chance of success, or waiting for a better skill for higher chances and sacrificing the potential goods I could use soon.

Graphics are clean, smooth, and pleasant: controls are becoming easier by the minute. Let's just say I'm really glad at least the majority of what I access I know how to manipulate with the keyboard alone.
