The most consistent thing in almost 50 hours of gameplay is how utterly incomprehensible combat order is.
Sometimes all my characters play in a row. Sometimes I am bombarded by the entire ennemy team before I can play. Sometimes I'll go through two rounds beforeI realize two of my characters are not even taking their turn during combat. I never know why. There is so little clarity, half the time it costs me a reload, or to burn through resources like potions like there's no tomorrow to get back in good enough shape that I can hope to win.
I just understood (call me slow) that in some cases my characters play on the same initiative. In those cases, skipping the turn of one will skip the turn of ALL OF THEM AT ONCE. It messed me up pretty badly on several occasions, not gonna lie.
