Okay, I'm 9 hours in now, and while the combat does feel kinda passive and limited early on, by this point, now that I've got a good handle on it, have 3 characters in battle at once, have attained multiple blades per character, and have upgraded so that certain arts are charged from the start of battle, I think the battle system is the best of the series so far. The special combos really do feel great to pull off.

I was kinda put off unlocking new blades at first after I got a few with truly horrible designs that I couldn't bear to watch the introductions of much less use in gameplay, but now my luck seems to have improved as I've scored some with decent designs. 

Yeah, I am really feeling it now.
