Real G's move in silence
I'm about halfway through and that's been my experience too. If it's turn based I get it but in an action RPG I prefer being able to evade/parry as opposed to FF7R where I get smoked and have to waste actions reviving and healing with whoever tanked the hit.
And don't let it be a game where if a character is dead they don't collect XP

Thats the problem with FF7R’s combat, its stuck inbetween an action game and a turn based rpg, so they expect you to eat hits. Thats why i feel like you either gotta do one or the other to make it satisfying, either full action or go back to a gambit like system.
The most you can do to mitigate damage in FF7 is block and i almost never used it because whats the point?
Are there longer combos in this game besides the basic 4 hit slash? Seems like besides the eikon abilities with garuda ain't much else. I got the limit break last night too.

I think Cloud's parry stance or whatever was useful at times. Moreso than just block anyways.

Oh yeah, well punisher mode still gotta eat hits. Thats where the RPG-ness comes in, at the end of the day its a turn based game disguised as an action game

You gotta string together your moveset for higher combos, but there's technically an 8-hit combo as well if you tie in magic-burst in your normal attack string.

Not really - outside of what was already stated above - which was my concern going into this. After the first few bosses I was left thinking that they should've had other weapons with slight changes to the move set (for example: Heavy ax that's mostly 2 hitters but strong af or a shield that's more melee/close range but longer combos, etc).
But...after a few more bosses I will say that swapping between 3 powers gets to be a bit hectic (and trying to command torgal). Hitting L2 thinking I got phoenix shift and end up grabbing
Some of these powers have a bit of nuance to get the most out of them so it does help it from getting stale. Also more enemy variety (in behavior/attack patterns) would help out too but I'm still happy with what I've got through so far.
