Since finishing the game, I've been watching a lot of youtubers/streamers playthrough the game. The one thing I really have an issue with, is that everyone seems to just be using the right trigger for combat. This is such a limited way to experience the combat, so no wonder they are have negative remarks when it comes to it. By using right trigger, you are limiting yourself to only 5 moves per fight, out of the 90 that you can use... It's brainless, not to mention it strips you of the satisfaction of chaining together a load of cool moves, and just destroying your enemies. I had so much fun spending time learning the move inputs, so that I could use a load of them in the fights to make them look as cool as possible. This was half of the fun of the combat! Meanwhile, I see people on twitch just spamming Tornado Kick over and over again with the right trigger, and then complaining that the enemies start to block their attacks. I mean, this isn't 100% the players fault either, as the in game tutorial for combat is lacking to say the least, but I'd really wish we could do something about it.
It would be awesome if the tutorial that pops up at the start of the first fight just explained this (and also explained AT/MT), so that people would understand how to actually get the most out of the combat.
