The game is bit confusing.

I recommend Borkono Gaming's beginner guide video (https://youtu.be/bVTHhndVggs).

The fights are indeed in auto; however you can choose whether to to use your UB (Union Burst) manually or automatically by toggling between auto and manual mode. I hope this helps.

The game is very simple for a gacha game you'll pick it up with time. However I highly recommend not refining any items early game as it isn't worth the mana. But late game it's more worth it when it's harder to aquire items and refineing is cheap cus you're a multi-millionare with mana.

maybe because i am new to this game, as I am playing genshin so i am aware with gacha system, but the fights being in auto is a bummer cuz i am used to genshin's fights and they have more dynamics. Anyways thanks a lot for clearing the doubt.

In Princess Connect it is all about planning, not controlling the character's every actions during fights. What characters are you going to use? Do you need heals? Do you need characters that can debuff?
If you are fighting a boss that does high magic damage and you are dying, maybe you need to bring in characters that have high magic defence. Maybe a boss has a skill that targets the character with the highest physical attack? Then you might want to bring a team where the highest physical attack is the tank, or someone else that is ok being targeted. Etc
It's all about team composition.
When you get into clan battles, it becomes even more complicated, as when you use your character's UB can greatly change how much damage your party does, or whether they even survive.

I admit, some people might not enjoy this kind of gameplay, but it definitely has depth to it, and is not about just setting it to auto and forgetting about it (outside low-level content and clearing the main story quests).
