Who's got the Gambits playing the game for you?

For God's sake, someone give me a chalk...

You have total control over your characters in Final Fantasy VIII, turning of the gambits would have same effect for Final Fantasy XII, thing is, you can still play the game in same manner which can't be said for Final Fantasy VIII. Thanks to gambits you have multiple options on your disposal, choosing one that fits you best is again solely up to you, it has nothing to do with difficulty, you complain about lack of control, and yet you're the one restricting yourself.

By your own logic I can kill a man, I have that option, and since it's there I have to do it. Final Fantasy XII can play itself if you chose so, on the other hand you can have control, again if you chose so, you're not restricted, the game itself gave you an option, it's up to you to chose your style...

No, actually, I have finally found a plausible... I will listen to what somebody just said and control myself o.o

No, you mistook it and took it Literally which I didn't imply.
If I took away the junctions, all I can do is attack, the junctions are there to use, the same with the gambits.
And how the hell is my logic suggesting real life murder? Your weird O.o

Anyways, I mean, while trying to clear this up, the gambits are their for you to use, why not use them to their potential?
I'm not going to inhibit the game design to make the game harder, IE no junction= harder game, which I got to adel and I keep dying.(no junction) >.>

There, I explained myself while not acting like a total ass ^-^

Let me get this straight, you willingly use gambits to their full potential, even though it may severely restrict your control over the characters...

On the other hand, there is an option to remove gambits, it may not necessarily make the game harder as it doesn't affect your character stats, or their development for that matter, thus can't be compared to junction and materia system (maybe armor and levels which have greater influence on difficulty), though it will give you the same experience, the same feel of control featured in earlier titles in franchise, which judging by several posts made by you is what you want, you know this, the game itself offers you this option yet you restrict yourself on purpose, and actually blame game for it ...you logic is mind bugling to say the least.

Well, I bring up Junction and Materia cause they both have a direct influence on the battling.
Not using Gambits is literally not using apart of the game for what it is worth.
(

The difference though is without using gambits the characters can still use magic and the stats of the characters aren't affected by gambits either. Gambits are there to assist the player in the game since the battlefields in Final Fantasy XII can be more hectic and/or at least more dimensional. Taking

Once again you could still attack without gambits, use magicks, & teckniks. Gambits aren't as integral to its respective game as the junction system is to Final Fantasy VIII. And just as the junctions are there to use - how much you junction is a choice - so is the amount of gambits used - how many characters will have gambits? how detailed will be the gambits? The Gambit system gives the player total control on how they want their characters to act through the Gambit AI or the player can turn off the gambits for 1 to all of their characters. As stated prior, the Gambits are there to assist the player manage the battlefield.
