I have mixed feelings here. I like the idea of an all female cast, however in my opinion that didn't seem that much stronger (except for Paine.) They were still ditzy and and a little slutty. (except Paine, who was just slutty) I believe other characters from previous FFs were tougher (Faris, Terra, Celes, Tifa, Quistis, ect) That and I wish there had been more characters. As I said, I like the all girls cast, but having to play the same three characters through the whole game got annoying. And I would have liked perhaps like one guy, not to have women as a love interest, but I don't much care for to many preppy girls (Thankfully Paine wasn't to preppy) I thought someone like Buddy should have been playable.
