I agree with you on that statement Ryan, but one thing I don't is how you want it to be more of a platform game. Final Fantasy is an RPG, not a platform, and it will stay an RPG because that's what the series is.
If Square wanted to make a platform, I don't think they'd be making it Final Fantsy, it'd be a different game. The whole fact that FF is an RPG is what brings people to love it.
