I think Tactics is honestly the point where I noticed FF going a different route than what I really liked. But it took FF X to hit me in the face with it to get me to see it.

Oh please tell. I want to know the opinion of someone who doesn't think XII is crap.

Ha, what do you want to know? It is absolutely my second favorite FF game ever (only after VI).

1. Gameplay is awesome (gambits included)
2. Graphics are awesome for their time
3. Beast Hunting
4. Variation of locations you visit throughout the game
5. Summon battles are pretty epic (even though summons themselves are pretty useless most of the time)

Ha, and that folks, is why I think FFXII is a good game. STOP HATING ON IT!

I will give you the benefit of the doubt. Since FFX came out (not counting offshoots like crystal chronicles or theatherythm) I have bought and tried : X, X2, XIII. I have bought and not tried : XI XII XIII-2. I will say that XII has a special place in my heart regardless: Its the exact day my first child was born. I have the full size store standee, the steelbook version of the game with the hardback guide. I am going to give it a try as my next game just to see how it really is.

I would take that with a grain of salt... SE has not officially announced pricing and the game is still under NDA.  I'll share what I can (beta starts tomorrow) as the beta progresses.  Anyone else in the Beta?
