Grandia, anybody?

Automated battlesystem? I remember it as an innovative battlesystem. What move you chose would depend on how the field looked atm and how you would think it looked when you character actually got to act. You would have to think about do i have time enough to cancel my oponent? Is it to early for a cancel? should i block or try to counter? should i kill of the one with almost no hp left, who stands alone over by the side, or should i cast a spell that might hit 4-5 opponents instead? I loved that about the system, for an optimal use of your power you would have to make the right choice depending on the current situation :D Of course, the game was easy enough to beat without thinking about those things too, so you could just get through it by autobattle, and if i remember correctly there actually even was a function to make the characters chose moves for themselves? iirc?
