What do you think about the FF12 battle system? It's different from the other FFs.
I liked it better than the older FFs. I really didn't like random battles too much. You took one step and it was like "OH HEY ENEMY!" D:
I like how you can actually see your enemy before you battle so you can choose to battle or not and it makes battles go by a lot faster. 3nodding

I love it. I hate it when I run out of potions and there is a save point where I can get HP or use the TENT or if there is a city with an inn, one step and BAM battle time. then I die ._.

I like that too. Being able to see your enemy before you attack makes it a whole lot better.

You just have to find them fast enough before the lights go out.

I hated finding inns. D: I would be out on the World Map in another FF game and I would be dying and SHAZAM! Random Battle.

Meh, if you play the game on WAIT mode.. its no worse that any other FF. You just have to more back and forth to get in range.

I like being able to move... like, when an enemy is about to attack, toy just run in circles with the person that is being targeted... while the rest of the party picks the enemy off. Basicly skipping the enemies turn.

It allows for many ways to play... ACTIVE mode is a bit more dynamic and challenging.. especailly if you don't use many gambits like I do.

I like to micro-manage everyone while playing. Once you master how to shift through menus its easy XP

I liked using the gambits. It made things easier.
The battling was more free though and kinda more real.

I loved it. Made the game more interesting.

The only random battles I like EVER, are in Pokemon.

My uncle hates the battle system for XII.

I got all these warnings, the battle systenm is scewy....I think it's great! I'm still learning the gambits, but they help tremendously. I like that you can see the enemy before hand, but the random battles were such a mainstay part of the FF series it was hard to part from.

I didn't like it so much.
It would have been better if they had made it fully non-turn based, like Kingdom Hearts. I LOVE being able to just attack things in that game.

I liked the tweaks they made to the battle system in IZJS >w<
like the fast-foreward mode is especially helpful for high chains.
I don't think I'd have enough patience to get a 999 chain in the normal paced mode XD I think my highest in the english version is like 589 or something.
I wish the chains could go past 999 though .-.

I think KH and XenosagaI have my favorite battle systems <3

The battle system takes a while to get used to and can be a real pain in the beginning (license board for the fail), but once you master the gambit system it ends up working out nicely. I like it better than the random battles of earlier games. Those were incredibly frustrating for me (that and the VERY RARE save spots).

I like the fact that the battle system and seeing enemies made it easier to hunt down certain loot. Makes the bazaar so much easier to work.

:'D

I mean, I'd hate trying to get certain item drops, but I keep getting random battles with enemies I don't need to fight.
Saves a lot of time.
