FFXIII won't be here for another year , but maybe we can just kill some time to discuss one of the features that's bound to be in the game. Status Ailments, those nasty defiled codes that hinders our character's stats and abilities. FF has had a lot over the years and which ones do you think will be in this one?
Also would they pick like some prior FFs that had status go away over time, or dissapear after a battle or would they be like XII where they lingered after a fight and some still existed after a character has been killed and brought back to life?

In addition to the usual canon (Blind,Silence, Poison,Sleep) I would like to see the irritating Stop to come back and maybe Heat from IX.

There's also a chance for a brand new status too.
