Finally got the whole party and access to more artes. I was waiting to pass judgment on the battles until this happened.

I just do not see the love for the battle system. Bosses have been great. The Burst Artes and Finishers are nice to look at and sometimes can add a strategic element to the battles. Overall though, the day-to-day encounters feel simpler and less fun to me than Berseria and Graces f. Those systems are so fun because of all the options they give you for combos, hitting elemental weaknesses and breaking the enemy. I guess that's kind of in this one, but something about this system is much less satisfying. The enemies are somewhat spongy and too many have super armor. Some of the artes are just flat out useless because of how slow they are/how open they leave you. Feels a bit of a 2 steps forward 1 step back situation.
