Hello, I'm new too.

I haven't beat the game or played the old version, but I'm close to the end. I basically just don't like 4 things. The invincible is slow compared to the previous airship, noah's flute, how much we don't really need spellcasters, and needing to send people messages to get the side quests.

The story was kind of lame, but the story in the first final fantasy wasn't all too great either. (I did like how it ended though).
