To me it feels like a mashup of Kingdom Hearts 3 and Final Fantasy XV gameplay. It's really fun to play so far. Some enemies have massive amounts of HP but the combat is entertaining enough that it's not an issue so far.
Mashing square to do basic attacks feels pretty good, and each character has a unique move or mode attached to triangle. If you press X, combat slows down to a very slow speed and you can use a menu to choose other abilities, spells or items. These abilities and spells can only be used when you have a portion of your ATB gauge filled.
You control one party member, but can press L2 or R2 to select moves for your companions to do, or just press the D-Pad to switch to those characters and control them. You also can hold L1 to quick select abilities for the character you currently control.
A fight in Chapter 4 pretty much forces you to learn how to dodge (circle button) and block (R1 button), but certain characters can only block some attacks. I'm sure it'll get more complicated as I go!
