I had a similar issue with limited options reported about stuck in ship combat (Stuck in Ship Combat Loop with 0 sail health). Hold then proceed half sail hold full sail hold hold half sail. I had to keep doing this over and over until I closed in on the other ship. The pain with this is having to hit continue multiple time in between cycles as if it just drags on. So, after charging to the other ship and closing the distance the party vs party battle started on the ships ​The real issue I defeated the opposing enemy. But that was it. I was stuck in battle. My character got knocked out during battle, but my other party members lived on. There were no other enemies to choose to battle. My player did not come back and the battle never ended.

I get the difficulty, but why? If you want stupid difficulty then make it part of the higher difficult settings. Not when choosing normal or easy. I actually had it on normal switched to easy and I'm still having a difficult time. The irony is a lot of people praising the game will not finish it. If they did then maybe like me get pissed, and a rating of 10 goes to 8. I just spent 90 hours to get to the end. Now I have to either walk away or spend another 2+ hours just to finish the boss, because of many do overs. Maybe 30 minutes is understandable. But, why 2 minutes into the battle everyone is dead. What sucks about games like this is that one spends 90+ hours only to get to the end and face something that was nothing like what was done prior. If there is some trick or something to be learned in order to finish the boss then train and teach the player over the course of the game. Instead you are dumped in a battle like one that has not been seen the past three months of game play. Can someone tell me what other battle(s) in the game are similar in difficulty, tactics and strategy? From my experience none. I guess another play through or two, but will I every know the end. If a game is like a movie then this is like having your chair set on fire towards the end. Bearing the pain and suffering to watch the last 15 minutes of the movie, or getting up and walking away.
