yeah the systems in this game are almost NES level shit,where you NEED that manual to understand everything. I honestly may grab the official strategy guide for this if i keep struggling. Even fetch quests are tough...I cant find areas.

Care to elaborate? I'm pretty sure that every side quest I've done was easy to do and find, and every combat mechanic was explained in tutorials to advance fairly easy. 

I just now found out why my combos were only triggering sometimes (need to be level 2 or up, and you can tell by looking at your npc teamates what level they are at), and as for side quests, there is one where you are to go to a certain location to feed *redacted* and the name of the area is not a landmark on the map. Due to not being able to look at tutorials again (informants supply two lines of information, not the original tutorial), if you miss or misremember anything, you have to either a) look it up, or b) happen upon the mechanic again. Another side quest has you finding who has been sabotaging the *redacted*. However, all you know is they are "by a tree". However, the map has MANY trees, and in addition to that, you can only see these *redacted* at night.
