thats what makes it good though, its very indepth and allows experimenting. the game combat is godlike imo, at first though its hard and you dont have a lot of skills. if you decide to give it another try download the bags that helps you (screw achievements you want fun first priority) and play the game, even turn down difficulty at first until you get the idea how synergy works. after you get that, combat will become much more appealing, you can find good synergies.

I felt the same way. I play rpgs for the narrative and the choices they offer but here the main focus seems to be the combat, which is fine but turn based combat is just plain boring imo. The world is also just bland.
