i find this game harder for some reason. The job system is far more complicated. Laws and ability learning are very annoying and especial jobs are late-game stuff. However in FFT, the only hard part was Riovanes Castle, then, not only was it easier, you get Orlandu, which isultimately powerful.

I haven't played this game much, though maybe It'll get MUCH easier when you get used to everything but it is just my opinion.
