Auto attack is boring. I played ffxi as a melee rdm so I attacks and had stuff to do. And I would still perfer manual attack. I likezelda games instead of baulders gate type games.

Personally I hated ffxiii battle system sorry but.... ya it starts out fast then get awkwardly slow. pres pres pres watch isn't fun. I liked ff12 battle system but perfer say elder scrolls or zelda system. As simple as it was fights in zelda are pretty epic. no matter what number.
