I wasn't on this ep (still need to listen to it this afternoon!) but I'm of the feeling that it has good "action-RPG" combat. It's not particularly complex but it's meant to be satisfying (like the recent Ys games or Trials of Mana) compared to the more challenging mechanics of a Bayonetta and Metal Gear Rising. I enjoyed Automata quite a bit but I'm still somewhere in the middle of the 9S chapter.

A remarkable game for sure. It's odd to me that you struggled to find fault with it though, as the gameplay is far from unimpeachable
