The best way to remedy this problem would be by having you control the character directly and then using attacks so that

A) It takes actual skill
B) It's your fault when you mess up

I don't see how RPGs take no skill. They just don't need reflex skills, unlike in most games which rely solely on them. And since the enemy can also miss for no reason, it's balanced. I don't see the problem, really, it sounds more like most people complaining in this thread just don't enjoy RPGs :I

I think the worst part, and the one that most people are frustrated about, is that the results in most RPGs rely fairly heavily on chance. I mean sure, you've got strategy and levels and all that, but in the end it all boils down to the roll of the die. Whether you win or lose a battle, especially at critical moments, can be more dependant on that than the player's personal skill.

I'm not to say you're completely wrong, I get your points. That's just how I see it.
