I saw in someone's thread his villain is cartoonishly mustache-twirlingly evil which kinda turned me off His story as a whole is bizarrely badly written. He just has a set of mechanics that are great as a starting character. Doe posted... Idk, are you locked to your first party member like in 1? If not I guess it doesn't matter. Until you beat their story they are locked in. That said it's easy to get the stories done so you can "unlock" the slot fast. In any case I feel that Hikari (super strong in combat + having your "MC" be the dueler makes it more personal) and Throne (steal + strong fighter + right next to Inventor to make someone OP) are the two strongest starter characters. Afterwards I would say Osvald (strong AoE + Analyze + very useful alt-steal), Ochette (insanely versatile in combat due to monsters, but kind of worthless outside of it... also has a bug that makes her the best character by an insane margin), and Agnea (reasonable in combat, but has a useful alt-steal if you level her up) are the others I would seriously consider. Of the two you mentioned Partitio is absolutely the most fun + is super useful, but you are pretty "money hungry" if you actually want to get into merchant dank. Tenemos has a fun story + is a healer, but beyond his writing I would say he is one of the least compelling characters to use. One of his abilities is more of a bandage to him not innately being a DPS for solo run stuffs (until you get level 80+, at which point the game is over + you can get the best grinding follower) and the other one is more a super flavorful info gathering option that Hikari kind of dumps on outside of literally one point. --- "A shouted order to do something of dubious morality with an unpredictable outcome?
