And that's just my gripe about combat. The rest of the game so far for me has been running down a path, fighting some guys, having my health fully restored after the fight so the next fight is just as easy as the first one, watching a cutscene, playing as one of the characters for a few seconds when it could be a cutscene instead..... and annoying voice acting from pink haired girl (grr hate @ her).
After a certain plot point, the battle system will get a little shaken up and monster strength will noticably increase. The "Paradigm" mode will be added. With the default characters after that event, you'll basically have Lightning in Commando mode, Snow alternating between a support attacker and a tank, and your third member alternating between support attacker and healer.

And during the next boss battle, if you don't switch to the defense setup before it uses Crystal Rain, there's a good chance Lightning will die.

Oh, and a sphere grid-esque leveling system for their different battle modes.
