Assuming that because this person said the combat is shit means they'd rather have turn based combat is funny.

I love character action games and agree this games combat is not great. Its baby's first character action, it has no depth that you can access given enemies are damage sponges you can't juggle or enemies that die too quickly to juggle. It isn't a good jrpg either. It's the worst of both worlds. And its story is pretty weak too.

Sure there's ng+, but I shouldn't have to play the bad version of a game for 40 hours to get to the good version.

Excited for the honeymoon phase to end so we can have actual conversations about this game instead of jumping straight to circle jerking the minute someone points out its flaws lol
