But other than that, you make a good point about enemies dying in one hit if you use the right character. It does start to feel like a matching game after a while, especially with the high encounter rate.
I don't think there's anything wrong with the game showing you how to effectively handle yourself in battle. Maybe it does turn into a matching game, but I'm fairly certain you'd start to realize how to handle certain enemies after a while. It's a hell of a lot better than the button-mashing that goes on in XIII...
