    Any time I see anyone tell someone to learn the rotation, everyone shout's, it's broken. I don't think it is, I think it's by design.
    The problem may be that some people consider it no fun to have entirely choregraphed fights, they prefer reacting to the unpredictable.
    The problem may also be that people don't like the fact that they *have to* do it because of the game's shortcomings (not that they wouldn't learn eventually).

    I cannot understand how one can consider it an intended design that the game is so sluggish and latency-sensitive. Interesting, maybe (matter of taste, I guess). But intended design? I don't think so.
    I won't even go there, because if I were to consider it an intended design, then it would mean considering SE has reached an impressive level of incompetence. Which I doubt (though they sometimes seem like they are trying very hard to make us believe it, considering Yoshi said they were unable to make difficult content that is playable with 3 digit latency).
    Honestly? Going into a fight you cannot win, because you cannot dodge, that you have to do again and again in order to learn by heart and then to be able to win, only it became so predictable (that's the whole point) that you're just doing exactly the same thing over and over? No really? Intended design?
    I know this community is found of repeating grinding in order to feel like they "worked" to "earn" a reward... but honestly even in the combat system?

    I believe the choregraphed part is intended bad design. But the delay? No way.
