the auto-battle is a major help get through V -- really most of the game can be summarized as one long grind for job ability points.

but I had fun. the job ability combos are definitely fun and you can get through the game with a ton of unorthodox ways. the stories and characters are just OK, acceptable for the time but mostly juvenile in retrospect (memory loss Galuf was the best thing going).

glad to have made it past the first 10 hours this time and add it to the trophy case.
