It is pretty easy to over-think thing when it comes to games; because most of the time, the tools we need are there in the game, it might just take a minute (or several levels) to figure them out.

I had something similar to your Last Story expeience happen with Dragon Age: Origins. I knew I could switch characters, but didn’t know why I would want to….that is until I hit a wall. I was in some mountain dungeon, and simply could not get past a particular group of enemies. After a few tries, I finally stopped an started queuing up actions for my party and lo-and-behold I was able to get past the mob!

Who knew playing the game the way you’re supposed to would help you win? :)
