[A Black Falcon]

I don't hate that battle system... I just find menubased combat is generally boring. Its not awful... its just kind of dull. More so in some games than others... and the way they have random battles is just extremely annoying. I hate having to fight randomly... it is just extremely irritating. I don't like the battles all that much, usually... its good that they are usually over fast because they aren't particularly interesting. Some games do a better job than others at making it fun (I don't know exactly why...)

I don't mind fighting monsters. I would prefer a better and more fun battle system, though... either a action-oriented one like a actionish RPG (Zelda, Mana, etc) or one more like PC RPGs (that's a VERY broad category there, but what they have in common is they are never menubased... always either turnbased or realtime... like the Infinity Engine, or Fallout, or Wizardry... each very different but fun... the battles are fun. Combat in menubased games often just isn't that fun... a few games are, but the vast majority aren't that great. And random combat multiplies the frusteration several times at least...
