You can indeed automate just about any mechanic, yeah. But then you’ll use up your chip storage and miss out on cooler abilities.
And that is the beauty of it. You can make the game as easy or as difficult as you want. I am not going to tell you you played the game wrong, because there is no wrong. You should be allowed to play the game however you want, it is your time after all.
Maybe you would have enjoyed the bosses more if you played a different build. But maybe not.
I do hope you started a new game afterwards. Since the game does not end after the credits. You get to play completely different characters and see whole different perspective that explains so much more of the story, each time you restart.
Give the TV show a chance, it retells the entire story without slogging bossfights.
YEs, yEs, wE gEt it, thE game has four chapters and you only get the last 3 after repeating the whole initial game once. They’re not really “endings”. It’s not even 9S’ perspective, you see a ton of extra shit that’s not related to his viewpoint.
The thing I wanted automated was the whole combat, at minimal difficulty AND minimal time spent. Not because I don’t play hard games (I’ve beaten plenty) but because I decided the combat wasn’t interesting to me and I wanted to fast forward to the story. The game didn’t offer that.
And when I finally did wait out those long auto boss fights, I got an extremely unrewarding story.
Ending SpoilErs
How the fuck do you take a lady whose opening lines are “Everything that lives is designed to end. We are perpetually trapped in a never-ending spiral of life and death…[get me the fuck out of this]” and reward her efforts in breaking the cycle by…bringing her back to life again? On a barren planet where all their friends, and even the village and the orphan group are dead?
I swear, so many people were hard-shipping 2B and 9S so much they didn’t parse how torturous that ending is.
