Gaming - JRPG's are dead - View Post

Persona 4 also had the same Auto-Battle. Dragon Quest has Auto-Battle if you set the tactics to it, Tales series has a similar Auto-Battle due to tactics. A lot of JRPG's use a automated battle system. I agree that FFXIII's one was probably one of the worst, but that doesn't make it the only one.

Plus, the whole argument of Auto-Battle is completely annuled for the fact that it wasn't mandatory. No one forced you to play the game with it. That's the same thing about people complaining about Gambits on FFXII.

Persona 4 had direct control.

The difference in FF13, your control over your allies is the lowest in probably any JRPG. 

The amount of control you had during Rush on Persona 4 was very limited as well. But I agree with you on your last statement.
