Turn Off Auto targeting

[MrFrengLitch]

Just started the game.

Is there a way to turn off the auto targeting in battles? I dont see any options for that in the menu?

Change the battle mode from semi automatic to manual.

I have it set to manual and the auto target is still on. I dont want the auto targeting.

I want to be able to freely move the camera so I keep an eye on all the enemies at all times.
Is it possible?

Unfortunately the only thing you can do is play on manual, there is no way to fight without targeting an enemy at all
EDIT: you can also disable the auto camera movement from the settings so at least you will not be forced to always have the locked target on your screen

The gameplay is design with the target in mind, since your character only can land attacks on such target. You cannot attack whatsoever if you are not aiming for the target. To me is very bad decision, I dont understand why they did not just go full action RPG, instead of this awkward system.

not really true. or maybe it depends on the character used. with alphen i often attack multiple targets at once with sweeping artes or even autoattacks. sure theres a main target, but it is pretty easy to hit another target you dodnt mean to attack because it stands in the way.

If you play with a controller (also playing in manual mode), you can use the left stick in the direction you want your attacks to go regardless of your current target.

No offense, but every game in this series has always been designed like this. There was always an enemy set as a target.

You are asking why a bike has wheels lol. The game was always like this.

Forget about it, @Uzkniso o.o, @MrFrenglitch is another fine specimen of entitled player...

Or you know, the game might just not be for you. Either way, I think that even the next title in this series will keep the targeting system aka there will always be a target.

Bruh, whats with the random insult? I was just asking if its a thing in the game because I would prefer having it off. You guys are acting super defensive like If I said the game is trash.
