I played E33 for about 4 hours. The combat system is atrocious. It feels like I'm playing a turn based RPG but with elements of Dark Souls? The almost necessity of dodging in combat made me give the game up.

    I just played it on easy difficulty then it became enjoyable for me.

    Was it good though? I imagine you'd be AP starved until you get the Picto for AP on hit, and then it sounds like the opposite where you can spam costly skills.

    I already said in my comment that I enjoyed it?

    To clarify, I meant gameplay, because you can (and a lot of people do) turn on easy mode just to ignore it and focus on everything else.

    The easy mode could win battles for you automatically and most people would "enjoy" it all the same, but I hardly think anyone would love it.

    Edit: The context was explicitly combat, but, I feel there's still a difference of enjoyable combat and actually engaging combat. Is parryless easy mode challenging enough?
