at the very beginnig - before the game released -
I was kind'a disappointed - because the fighting system changed.
qickly I turned to play shadow hearts II - just to taste the joy of the old school battles.

but hey !
this is Final Fantasy we're talking about.
the reason that makes me love the RPG stile.
then I try the game (FF XII)
I amaized by this huge step that the game develops.
man until now I'm proud of FF series.
I like the real time battles and the game over all.
