I liked it the moment I had my first fight and saw my stats increasing depending on what I had used. It's definitely one of my favorites and I'd really love to have seen some of these ideas brought back and expanded on (outside of the SaGa games, because they're trout). FF2s systems couldn't have improved a game like X and probably wouldn't have worked well with VII or VIII, but man I'd probably think IX and XII were the hottest trout if they had taken inspiration from this game.
