* '''Played For Drama''': You are the leader, and your teammates have their own personalities. While you can give them general tactical instructions (support the team with buffs and debuffs, heal the team, inflict maximum damage...), they will act on their own free will. You can access a quest line to give yourself manual control over your party... By brainwashing your teammates, a fact you are made aware of when that quest line becomes available to you. Sure, manual control over your teammates would greatly improve your combat efficiency... The further you go down that quest line, the more control you have over your teammates... And the more you get to see them turn into EmptyShell, that can only obey your orders and never think for themselves.

Added DiffLines:
'''Basic Trope''': The player controls one member of the PlayerParty while the rest are controlled by AI.
* '''Straight''': The player controls [[TheLeader Alice]], while [[MightyGlacier Bob]] and [[WhiteMagicianGirl Claire]] are controlled by the CPU.
* '''Exaggerated''': There are entire sections where Alice is controlled by the AI too, essentially making them unscripted cutscenes.
* '''Downplayed''': The player has the option of letting the AI control Bob and Claire or commanding them manually.
* '''Justified''': The player is a "guardian spirit" guiding Alice and only Alice. The other party members are doing their own thing.
* '''Inverted''': Bob and Claire are controlled by the player, but Alice is controlled by the CPU.
* '''Subverted''': Initially the CPU controls Bob and Claire, but Alice angrily tells them to listen to her and they follow the player's commands from then on.
* '''Double Subverted''': The game has a "loyalty" mechanic. If Bob and Claire get angry with Alice then they'll go back to being AI controlled.
* '''Parodied''': Alice expects her guardian spirit to command Bob and Claire too when they join her party. They find the idea odd (and a little creepy).
* '''Zig Zagged''': Some members of the party are AI controlled, others are not.
* '''Averted''': Alice is the only character in the game.
* '''Enforced''':
** The game is a tech demo to show off a new AI system.
** The combat is real time, but the player has a large party. AI control for most of the members is the only option.
* '''Lampshaded''': "Why would we just wait around for orders? We know how to do what we do better than you do."
* '''Invoked''': Alice tells Bob and Claire to do their own thing, since they trained together and probably know their own abilities better than she does.
* '''Exploited''': One boss declares [[DangerouslyGenreSavvy he knows how Bob and Claire's AI works]] and exploits it.
* '''Defied''': Bob and Claire [[BotheringByTheBook insist on being told what to do]].
* '''Discussed''': "So...what do you want us to do, Alice?" "...just fight. You know how, right?"
* '''Conversed''': "Don't you need to tell the rest of the party what to do?" "Nope, they're controlled by the AI." "Oh my, games have come a long way since my day..."
