Another Gem to be Ignored

Were you one of those people who was fascinated by the Final Fantasy 8 Junction System? Was the combat grid & turn order list of Radiant Historia a compelling take on RPG combat? Was the tale woven by childhood friends Sora, Riku, and Kairi a tearjerker in your mind?
A yes to any of the above means that this is the next end-of-life PSP game that is going to fly under your radar. This import is a story-driven, character focused, somewhat steampunk fantasy romp that, get this, stars a flawed-but-likeable female protagonist.
I could waste the next 1000 characters with flowery words on how this game is great and it's a shame so many are going to miss it, but I will instead shoot as straight as possible. If any of the above has even remotely piqued your interest, put this in your Q now. If you hate well-translated JRPGs, true strategic turn-based combat, or do not own or already traded in your PSP, go ahead and join everyone else who will overlook this solid gaming experience.
