Just to be clear, I don't mind random battles in general. Just when they happen every three steps. Most games only have random battles every five to ten steps, but there are a few out there where it gets to be insane.

What parts of JRPGs really annoy you? Here's mine in no real order...

1. Easy pointless battles

Some JRPGs will make their fights so easy that you can just turn on auto-attack, and win the fight within the first turn. No strategizing required. 


I love Suikoden 2 but I did this a lot of of times in that game, even in the last dungeon :P

I'm currently playing Suikoden 2, and it does have that flaw! But it makes up for it with quick battle animations, where most characters attack simultaneously. So, instead of having to watch as each of your 6 characters does an attack one after the next, you just watch as entire rows attack at once. 

Oh, and no spoilers (I'm only about 11 hours in), but so far Suikoden 2's story is nuts! ACTUAL CONSEQUENCES FOR WAR!
