If you don't want your characters to be the same, don't make them the same.

As for the comments on the battle system, I don't see the big deal, it's not as if the turn based battle system is some big amazing innovation that everybody loves, its just the normal way of fighting in most RPGs, I'm welcoming the change.

As for Ivalice, I'm glad they are using it, the aspects of Ivalice, such as the different races and the Judges have alot of potential in my eyes, and I'm glad I'll get to see them in full 3D.
