I think that part of it is bugs and glitches.
In DOS, the enemy turns just whipped through... here though....sometimes it takes longer for an enemy turn than it does for me - and I am a paranoid slowpoke.
A recent glitchy fight in the swap, we had enemies taking a turn, "planning a move" (or something similar) and they would take 30-40 seconds in real time to do it. Something just ain't right there.
Getting this a LOT. I really hope its a bug
