What are your expectations for FFXII?
Personally I'm excited. It will be a breath of fresh air from the normal turn based battles. The only thing I'm worried about is the gambit system because I don't want it to be so complicated that it will make my head spin. I wonder how you would also combine the Mist Knacks together like I read in a website. I'm excited but I just hope its not too complicated. So what are your expectations? What do you think you'll like/dislike? How do you think it'll do?

At first I was a little anxious about it. I played the demo and my anxiety only grew. Then I began to think...
From a game developer's point of view, the new battle system is really quite a powerful little tool in making a lot of what wasn't possible before possible. Think about an MMORPG - FFXI for instance... Spells like Slow, Haste, and Poison were actually USEFUL. Try using "Piggy" in FF4 and see how well it works out for you. The "Grey Magic" so to speak is something rarely used in a single player RPG because the battle system just doesn't permit its use... I'm hoping that FFXII will break the mold here.
That being said, Famitsu ranked the game its highest rating (is it.. 40/40 or 10/10? I can't remember) which is always good news. The Japs are much better at ranking RPGs than we are. All in all I'm really starting to look forward to it.

Did anyone see the new site that Square Enix launched for FFXII? There is a trailer and I think FFXII is gonna be awesome. The only thing is that I'm not so fond of the rabbit people and that weird guy who sounds like some lodged an amplifier in his throat. In my opinion I don't think Vaan is as cool of a character as like Squall and I think that Ashe's story is more intriguing but I'm probably going to like him as much as any other character that I like.

It also has absolutely nothing to do with FFXII. Thanks though.

If it's anything like the other ones, it'll rule. The trailers look good as well.
