Combat is pretty straightforward, and the game does a good job of metering out new abilities and upgrades so that by the time you’ve got lots of them at your disposal you already have a pretty good handle on things. It’s not all chocobo feathers and moogle pom-poms, though, as the targeting system continues to give me trouble even after tons of battles. At issue is how easy it is to accidentally attack a second foe, which can lead to a quick death under the wrong circumstances. Along those same lines, during hectic encounters it can be nearly impossible to pick out a specific enemy from the pack.
