I would honestly be more interested to see what Eidos would do with the series than what people like Kitase would keep doing.

Worth pointing out though Bolivar, that the FFXII team wasn't really a bunch of outsiders at all. Yeah, Matsuno hadn't done a main series title before, but he'd been at Square for years, and Ito directed some of the best titles in the series and was responsible for the best battle system designs the series had.
