pegusus123456 06/23/23 6:03:57 AM #22:	Ratchetrockon posted... Is that assist mode like "easy automatic mode" in the dmc games? FF16's easy mode takes the form of some rings that you can equip. One makes time slow down when you're about to be hit, letting you do the precision dodge easier. One just lets you auto-evade entirely (this one and the last one don't work together, of course). One automates your dog companion so you don't have to direct it to attack. One makes it so you can do a full combo by just hitting Square once. One makes it so you automatically consume healing items once you hit a certain health threshold. So yeah, if he's using all of them, it's no wonder that a prologue boss - this might be the actual first boss in the game - is so easy. --- http://i.imgur.com/Er6TT.gif http://i.imgur.com/Er6TT.gif http://i.imgur.com/Er6TT.gif So?

It isn't so much doing it for you but rather helping you learn. DMC's easy automatic on the other hand doesn't teach you how to do the combos, it just does them - and usually the wrong damn ones.
