 Yes, its auto-attack most of the game and change paradigm in the rare occasions where you need healing, wich is also done by auto-attacking. I'm not sure what you're playing at here. I did say 95%.

There is negativity because the game is  that bad. It deserves it, as we can see by the sequals wich failed to improve the game. This team can have 10 attempts at this and they would still probably make terrible games every time.

If you put it in that case scenario, you just pretty much explained the entire RPG genre in a nutshell, what were you expecting out of FFXIII gameplay wise? 3D Mario style gameplay  or GTA style sand box game?

I agree with the character and the plot surrounding them being bad but your explanation of the combat being bad makes no sense since the combat is pretty much the same as any other FF mainline game - the only difference is you are controlling one character and changing how the AI and commands of your characters work rather than having the Attack + Magic command with a side of Limit Break,etc.

I was expecting FF style gameplay. Not auto-attack fest.
