Random LJer commenting XD. I gotta agree, I've spent quite a few years replaying FF, XII as a basic RPG is good but to fans of the franchise, generally speaking, it wasn't so hot. I didn't like the storyline and while Balthier was awesome, he couldn't carry the giant mass that was FFXII.
At least XIII is due out in 09. Plus there's Dissidia for the PSP, I saw some pics with english text in it, so a localized version should be relatively soon. But personally I want a new FF from the main branch. One I can really sink my teeth into, not little things off to the side like Dissidia or Crisis Core. Unlike others, I'm confident in the new FF. Even though there isn't a lot of info on it, I'm confident. Not bad for SE really, they've kept it mostly under wraps for it being released 'this year'. Late December, its basically 09 to me right now haha.
I never even got half way through XII. I just watched all the video's on youtube and was satisfied. Even after seeing the video's, I was even less pleased with Ashe after that. Everyone else was just meh anyway, practically none of them stand out

... lmfao, I thought I responded to this. Ewps. Dx
If you haven't finished FFXII, you haven't missed anything. The storyline was still just as awful and half-assed by the end of it, so yeah. No amount of kickass gameplay can make up for that boring, bland storyline.
I watch the trailers because the few new clips thrown in are usually pretty nice. These two recent ones had a montage of lots of new scenes, if I remember correctly, so that made me all interested again~ It helped to whet my appetite, but I know it has to be hard for them to keep releasing new footage when they're just trying to get the games done. Haha
