It's been said that Final Fantasy's greatest strength and weakness is that each game is apart from all the others, that they connect really only in the name, but each game tells its own unique story. However, there are obvious ties to each game such as chocobos, magic, various items that are always in games, and the like.

My question for you today is simple: Has there been any aspect in any of the games that you wished would become a constant throughout the rest of the series?

For example:

I prefer the fact that in FF8 you saw all the active members of your party. For some reason, that appealed to me more, and I hope that in future games they do this as well instead of still only showing the lead character.

Enough about me though. What do you all think?

Take care all.
