It's not so bad. It'll suit people who like to play off the ground, since Air Dash automatically puts your character into the air. For example, I like being able to go straight into Thunder -> Solid Barrel -> Chase with Squall instead of either waiting that risky split second for him to land on the ground again or go in closer for a Beat Fang instead. It's not a swap out either, you can equip it alongside Air Dash. I didn't play Prologus, but if it made you choose between Ground or Air Dash, that would be pretty annoying.
Prologus had Ground Dash always equipped, and since I was so used to just Air Dash from the original, it messed up my attacks and combos a ton. Very frustrating. Not saying it doesn't have its uses, but it needs to be optional, not forced.

Agreed. Especially when you're rocking a large party in Labyrinth or Quick Battle. You have to move in and out of menus to set up all your characters and the load times are way too long.
Oh, goody, I haven't even tried the party battles yet. Something to look forward to...
