an ok FF game just dont expect it to be any better
a big JRPG person like me obviously would want to play this game and then be dissapointed by it like everyone else but believe me i was dissapointed, and i was very excited to play it when i first heard about it back in 2007 or whatever year it was firstr announced, the characters differ from forgettable and annoying to very loveable and sympathetic
snow - ok
hope - cute yet emo in a cute way :3
vannile - annoying at first but grows on you
lightning - she may seem slightly unattractive but she is kinda cool
oerba yun fang - hot and really really badass
sazh - can be funny and decent
now gameplay wise it differs from boring to enjoyable but still all you do is just press X / A (if your using a PS3 or xbox 360) what i mean is all you do from here on out is nothing but auto attackking in battles, enemy appears press X, Press X, press X, auto battle commencing, and that is 1 flaw really i mean final fantasy has never been this boring,
at least in FF12 it has a auto attack feature like an mmo with options to choose from with a unique very amazing gambit system and most of the characters are likeable "most"
also the game may be linear as hell but it has nice music. other than that i have nothing to say its an alright / ok rpg in the series
