I've never been able to get into FFT, it's like pulling teeth. I love SRPGs though, I'm having a great time playing though Vandal Hearts again, for exanmple.
And I've tried to like FFT, I really have, but it winds me up something terrible. First, you can only have five people per battle. WTHUX is up with that? Second you can spend forever building someone up, only for them to die and you lose it all. It's just... ugh. Hugely overrated.
