This is how you play FF8 to a point. Early game you use summons loads because it deals massive damage compared to poking enemies with Attacks, then when you do get powerful magic, junction it to attack and attack them. If you use the magic, you decrease your attack so you don't use the magic.
Early on though I never understood the importance of GF abilities and making them learn certain things first for things like convert items/cards, if you just leave it to do it automatically it may not even learn some abilities. This makes the game so much easier. Plus Aura, Meltdown combo makes every fight easy.
On topic, I was thinking and couldn't remember a single instance but then I remember FF7, I was leveling up characters for ages but what I didn't realise is that one of the weapons I had on didn't level Materia, I didn't understand it back then so I leveled up characters loads but never materia they had on them.
Hmm, pie.
