Conceptually sound, but weak in execution. It's a cheap ass gambit system in practice. There should have been a more complex customization system outside of battle. Personally, it's just boring. Neat idea, but very boring.

Each character had different specialisms within each class though. For example, Sazh learns all the single-target versions of the Saboteur spells, while Hope learns all the multi-target versions. Snow as a Ravager knows all the Ice and Water spells, while Sazh knows all the Fire and Lightning spells. Not to mention all the character has a unique full ATB skill.
Ultimately, the classes are slightly simple, but there's more depth to them than people give them credit for, in my opinion.

Goodbye, Adamantoise.
I liked it, but I preferred the customisation of the Gambit System in FFXII.
The paradigm system is one of the most over simplified, brainless, and boring piles of trout ever conceived of and put in an RPG. Square and the genre itself will be better off if we all pretend it never happened.
Didn't play the game nearly long enough to mess around with it.
I enjoyed it. It was more about keeping the tide of battle in my favor than micromanaging as is usually the case in a turn-based J-RPG. Different was refreshing for me. And I'm still impressed Hope fits that boomerang where he does after every single battle.
I really like it. It's one of my favorite systems!
That's a shame, it's a pretty decent system really. But if you don't like the game you don't like the game and I'm not going to try and convince you otherwise.
It was okay. I used it a lot. Although it took a lot of getting used to when I was introduced to it.
I like the system. I find myself abusing it a lot just to get a kill faster.
My first 3 or 4 sets are usually filled with COMs and RAVs.
I got a set with both a SYN and SAB if I need it and one with two MEDs and a SEN.
Quite often (after Orphan) I can get away with a RAV, COM, RAV set in battle without switching.
For the most part I liked it, but when you combine vulnerable transition time with the party leader dropping equals game over, that led to a lot of cheap kills.
