Auto Battle Option?

[omgitsbees]

Nice to have in my opinion, but not required either. Was curious if Arcadian Atlas has this?

Don't think so... But, respectfully, why would you even WANT an auto battler? It kind of vaguely makes sense that it was added to say, Fire Emblem Engage, because Engage is full of a TON of filler farming maps, but Arcadia is more or less just the story with minimal filler.

No judgement, mind you, I'm just curious. The tactical battles are like 90% of the point, so skipping it seems like you'd be better off not playing.

This is fair! I was assuming AA would have a lot of side/filler battles you can take part in. But knowing that its a very story focused game, I can understand why it doesn't have an auto battle option. I still want to get the game, it looks great, and I love SRPG like Final Fantasy Tactics, and Tactics Ogre.

Thank you!

There definitely ARE filler/side missions, but it's to a much less degree than most games. You can take "contracts" which are essentially side quests, but as far as I know there are no random encounters or generic "skirmish" missions.

The side quests DO have minimal story to them, but they have pre-set rewards and can only be done once. And as far as I know, these "contracts" are the only non main story battles. :)
