Your thoughts on the direction of this game?

this is so backwards. if the mechanics were something you could actually grasp during a battle or were included in some earlier content for preparation it wouldn't be such a hassle. but they're overly obscure and encounter-specific, so your experience in other stuff doesn't help you when those one shot mechanics come after your ass.

Exactly my point on why you should watch videos/read about the mechanics beforehand
