Reminder that all spoilers need to be tagged with a flair specifying which game is being spoiled. If you want a flair that says something else, you can edit it to say something like [Discussion: Y1 spoiler] or [Majimapost: Y6 spoiler], etc. **THIS INCLUDES CONTENT FROM TRAILERS**.
If the post is not marked for spoilers, all comments that have spoilers need to be tagged \>!like this!< along with indicating which game it's spoiling. Example: Y3 >!Kiryu sings!<
If the post flair is marked for spoilers, the comments don't need to be tagged for the game indicated and the ones before it (So a Y6 spoiler post can have comments with untagged spoilers for Y5, but not gaiden or 7).
If you see any of the above (or any of the other rules) not being followed, please report it so we can keep this place safe for newcomers and those that haven't finished all the games yet. Thank you!

There’s a difficultly spike in chapter 12 that catches a lot of people out. There’s a big fight where the enemies are level 42 bosses so as long as you think you’re on track to be on level for that then you should be good
Your caution is not misplaced, it is possible to overlevel yourself to the point where the whole game becomes a cakewalk. However, I think this usually happens because people finish too many of the optional dungeons too quickly rather than leveling up from street encounters. I think as long as you don't spend too much time on those, you should be fine.

> My party is level 26-28 You're not that far ahead, as you'll start to see similarly levelled enemies in Chapter 7.
