It's fast paced, frantic, technical, has a large and diverse character roster, and is just plain fun.
Combat

17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
All I can tell you is that the visual novel to combat ratio is overwhelmingly in the former's favor and you go through hours and hours of visual novel, just for mere minutes of combat.
