hows the gameplay in this series? nobody ever seems to bring it up when they talk about how good the games are.

I like the combat a lot. Like someone else it's kind of a hybrid, but don't expect a lot of the strategy. I'd say 90% turn-based, 10% strategy, which is just placement of your abilities and avoiding enemy abilities. You can see the turn order in combat on the screen and every so often random affects will show up that you'll either want or don't want, so there's also some decision making at times in trying to make sure you get or avoid those.

Example:
Current Turn - Me
Next Turn - Me
Turn After That - Enemy, and a Critical Hit bonus

You don't want that enemy to get the critical hit of course, so maybe you choose to use a move that delays the enemy's turn by a little bit.
