Honest question: I just bought DAI, I don't like it so far. Playing as a long bow user and, as of right now, all I do in combat is hold R1 and occasionally press X....does it get any better? I've read a ton of way negative reviews about this game.

I've read a ton of way negative reviews about this game.[/quote] It gets way better and quickly. I'm using Katari which is 2h glass cannon type of character and I love it. All the skills play off each other really well. The archer is like a single target DPS/Support role. It can be a bit boring at the beginning, but once you start understanding how the combos work you will get big rewards for team combos when you're keeping enemies inflicted with status effects. I found myself having the most fun with Elementalist and Katari though for their AOE.
