I can't say I'm terribly excited about this game, or playing dress up with Lightning. Guess I'll at least try a demo of it before I completely knock it, but I'm still a little glad this is the last entry in this set.

And really, they couldn't program a sheath for any of her costumes? huh...

I usually don't buy costumes for games. I mean, they're just costumes lol. I would prefer to play my game in the outfits presented by the actual creator of the story and not some funny swimsuit dlc (im looking at you tales of xillia)

Most costumes are just for appearances, and the prices for those (anything above free, IMO) just isn't worth it, but the costume system here is explicitly noted to affect your stats and combat abilities. I'm sure the game will be plenty doable with the inherent gear available, but I could understand someone being tempted by seeing a DLC costume with 'makes your character look good, and BTW, is totally overpowered against boss X you're having trouble with'.
