If you persist and learn from your failings you might have an awesome time with this like I did! This is easily one of my favourite games this year - I love spending time questing through this game-world and managing my party (and I am certainly not a 'hard core' RPG player). Initially this game seemed really brutal and unforgiving, but the learning curve is pretty fast and there is a glossary in the options and pop-up explanations of everything in-game. I am 25 hours in now, but I'm still encountering new monster types and quest types and there is still much more I want to accomplish and experiment with. The key to success is in making small, incremental gains each quest - earn a bit more money than you spent, level up a couple of characters a bit, make optimal use of that new item you just found. The game has some really cool mechanics (item and torch management, stress recovery management between quests) but the combat and exploration itself is not too complex. There are lots of customisation options and so many combinations to experiment with when setting up your party (I think there are 14 different character types to recruit and all play quite differently).
