    Yep fleeing is absolutely necessary. It's annoying having random encounters with weak enemies a lot

    22 Anonymous Anonymous over 5 yearsReport

    Uhmmm. We already have and its the whole point of this article. U high bro?

    21 Anonymous Anonymous over 5 yearsReport

    wonder if they'll even consider that?

    for those bitching around by saying why run from weak enemies? Imagine killing those weak enemies over and over for a hundred times when you can just skip them. So yeah why bother running to save some time right?

    19 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    Yep yep. Very necessary to have a flee functioni with RPG based combat. Gotta run away those weak mobs and continue on!

    18 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    Oh cool, didn't know you could run away, didn't bother trying during the demo. I wonder if they'll say something dumb like Tidus would do in FFX

    17 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    So you CAN flee. Didn't think of running away during the demo but I was wondering if you can do it on weak enemies to save time or on strong enemies to save potions

    16 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    Because you can't just smash everyone with your buster sword. And you won't be always be ready for combat.

    15 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    why run away when you can smash them with your buster sword

    14 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    Makes me feel like I'm playing Pokemon. "Got away safely"

    13 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    Agreed. Literally running away from a fight to flee kinda makes it a bit awkward. I guess its a necessary evil due to how the new combat works.

    12 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    i agree with the hassle part here, i really do!!! i know i can do the dash thing but a fixed "flee" button would do the trick, better and faster (to get away from enemies)

    11 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    this comment got me thinking, is there a possibility for you to completely run away from enemies like... if you run (well, using the controls) you can get away from enemies without killing it, or will they keep chasing you until you're dead meatballs??

    10 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    Aha! Thank you for this. I really need to learn this. I keep on dying. LOL

    9 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    i guess it's also cause it'll be more fun to fight... in the turnbased ones sometimes its just a hassle you know

    8 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    basically, since they're following the more "action-oriented" theme here, running away won't be as easy as, like hitting a few buttons and ESCAPEE

    7 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    so, that's the reason why we don't get the turn-based system which sounds okayyy... since they are trying to adapt and to keep the elements from the original at the same time.

    6 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    I miss the times they moonwalk rapidly until they escape.

    5 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    Noooooo

    4 Anonymous Anonymous almost 6 yearsReport

    It used to be as simple as moving the trigger away from the enemies
