The more I hear about the battle system the more I want to play it actually. Seems very...fluid. But I've also always loved that Square makes such drastic changes with each Final Fantasy. Change is a good thing. If by the time you have the number XII in your title and it's the same as I, then that would be a problem.

Anywho, all I really hope for is two things:

A New Game + feature. I don't want to start over as a god though... I liked X-2's where your level didn't carry over so you weren't all powerful. My favorite New Game + is Tales of Symphonia, where you "purchase" things such as extra experience or learned abilities. It takes 6-7 playthroughs just to get absolutely everything. Now that's replay value.

And monsters that do not level with you. I hate it when they do that...I couldn't get into FFVIII because everytime Squall leveled so did all the enemies. That made actually playing it somewhat pointless. I understand people power level and make the game too easy, but hey, if a gamer wants to put that much work into it, why not? I prefer difficult enemies and bosses that force you to level to contend with them to make the game hard.

Anyway, I'm sure it will be a great addition. I love VI, VII, IX, X, and even X-2. I enjoy that Square takes so many risks...
