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

It is FF style.....LOL. Same commands, same setups, the only thing that is different is the addition of roles and they crapped out the summon system (which is my only complaint in the battle system).

But how you fight, attack the enemies, support your characters, use items, etc is exactly the same xD.

the fact that you cant even control your other party members shows that it is not FF style, thats barely RPG style

You control them through setting up PARADIGMS, which are a set of choices between physical attacks/elemental/magic attacks/eidolon attacks/item based choices with the added COM/RAV/SEN/SYN/MED/SAB specialization battle system paradigm advantages. It's a deeper combat system than you're used to with prior FF's.

The options are there and  if you're not aware enough to figure this all out I can clearly understand why your opionion is the way it is now. If you played through the game you would understand this....You didn't play through FFXIII did you, neither do the negative game reviewers. ;) IMHO Parroting to serve a brainwashed agenda is common in todays society, good one. It relates to the story quite well in FFXIII in that millions on the planet Cocoon. Didn't stand up to the lies of Sanctum only your party in FFXIII and NORA does, and look how that turned out? Or did you finish the game at all?  I didn't think so.

your level of ignorance astounds, me, i did play through the game. Explain to me how picking a paradigm system(its a stupid system IMHO). is the same as selecting a character and having them to a SPECIFIC action (heal, attack, etc.) it is not the same thing and if thats your idea of deep then so be it.
