I want to love this game, but the need to use mana to progress through the story AND special events just makes it pointless. I've been playing less than a week and my gameplay consist of doing the few daily activities, stretch my resources to the limit for 1 or 2 levels, then run through my mana in about 5 minutes and wait till the end of the day to have enough to do a couple more fights. It either needs to charge WAY faster, or find an alternative energy for the story. I'll give it a few days.
