Anybody pick this up for the Switch? I've put in maybe 25 hours so far and enjoying it a good bit. Wasn't too mad on it for the first couple of hours because the desert is boring to look at and I was constantly walking into enemies as a result of moving my camera around trying to find how to get from point A -> B, but pretty much as soon as I reached the Diet Building I started having a great time. Soundtrack is honestly a little bit lackluster for an SMT game though IMO, though it does have a couple of good tunes.

Also seems like it was fairly successful in the UK (was in the top 10 for its first week), so I wonder how many people here have or are planning on picking this up?
 
I really should pick it up and give it a try, maybe if I can get my backlog down I can try it out.

Yeah I'd deffo recommend it if you're into JRPGs, I think this will be a lot of peoples first taste of SMT now that Persona has somewhat brought SMT to peoples attention. Gotta say some of the boss fights haven given me a good bit of trouble though, even as an experienced player.
 
I'm enjoying it a lot, but I had to put it on hold because I'm distracted with Brilliant Diamond that I'm playing with some co-workers. That first boss was savage.

Yeh I ended up getting bet into it not long after starting this thread, but I've not played for a week now cos my wrist is in bits. Hydra was a pretty tough fight to start things off, but honestly one of the later fights gave me waaaay more trouble until I found an Aogami-type 4 essence in the overworld which packaged a heavy Zio skill with it - exactly what I needed for that particular boss. Wasted hours trying to beat him before that though, even with Mothman & Lilim in my party.
