Vaan.
That's it.
Penelo can be excused because dat ass.
Alexander Brooks
Just about everything.
Landon Allen
>Messy jumbled music, poor choices for BGM themes in most zones
>Villain who disappears for 95% of the game
>Story kept at arms length throughout most of the game as you run through random dungeons
>Dungeons were shit
>Combat system is the FF11 system with all the important mechanics removed
>3 party members isn't enough to play out a pseudo MMO class system
>Vaan and Penelo
I loved the gambit system but it felt wasted on such a barren combat system.
Colton Morris
The characters (most of them anyway) , story and gameplay. But hunts were cool.
Jeremiah Adams
>Story is barely there
>You're just walking through maps that stretch out way too long
>Battle system is shit
>Only a couple of likeable characters
>Unmemorable music
Which is a shame because I like Ivalice and other Ivalice games and the director of this kind of got shafted by square's higher ups who killed thus game.
Alexander Parker
Best character to come out of this franchise.
Josiah Hughes
I genuinely keep forgetting she was in that game
Cameron Nelson
the good version of it hasn't been released in the west yet
Ryan Edwards
>tfw this was the last game where Squeenix remembered how to world build
Adrian Rogers
The world was built a long time beforehand
Ayden Ramirez

I disagree with most of that. I thought the dungeons and music were really memorable. I did have aproblem with the battle system though. I just didnt feel engaged.
David Brown
I fucking love FF XII soundtrack
William Miller
>Fight the empire.
>Loot their gear
>Have to grind for a license to equip it
>You need a license to equip the legendary weapon of excalibur
Angel Moore
The story and how Vaan was scratching his head in confusion from start to end.
Jose Johnson
>Final Fantasy XII
I thought it was okay.
Isaac Gray
It's just downright messy, very few of the songs were memorable and their choices made no sense. You can't put fast paced battle music as the background theme in peaceful looking zones, that shit doesn't work.
Overall it's not a very good soundtrack, it's nowhere near any in the PS2 and PS1 era.
Ryan Gray
Gambits
Luis Perez
HATRED IS WHAT DRIVES ME
Jacob Roberts
The only good thing to come out of FFXII was Kiss me Goodbye. Prove me wrong.
You can't
Sebastian Murphy
Not my favorite FF, but I still forked hundreds of hours into it when it had come out. The monster hunting and optional bosses/espers were fun.
Henry Wood
I play Final Fantasy for an engrossing world and a story that if not coherent intrigues me.
FFXII is a neat world the lacks depth out of the city, and a shit story.
Alexander Cook
>implying it wasn't Fran and those legs and that voice
Matthew Bennett
I really did not like the license system
Jason Price
If everyone and their mother could wield the blade, it'd just be a fancy scrap of iron.
Evan Gomez
my only problem was the abrupt ending. I thought you would at least get to explore some of the Rozarria Empire.
Josiah Thomas
Wonder when will we get to enjoy a full Ivalice together with floating islands and Jylland.
Austin Cruz
Biggest flaw for me was the story and characters. Not individual characters, individually they're all great aside from Vaan. But they never felt like a true team. No chemistry beyond Balthier and Fran or Vaan and Penelo. People also praise the political plot but I think it was done pretty poorly compared to FFT and TO.
Nicholas Hernandez
>Battle system is too much like an MMO, and the Gambit system essentially does all the work for you
>Uninteresting and impersonal story
>world full of non-human races, and a party of only humans except 1 bunnygirl
>Vayne is a dull politician who just talks too much but doesn't even say anything interesting, and is so far removed that we don't even know why he is the main antagonist. No one in the party even has a personal vendetta with him
>Vaan and Penelo are entirely useless
>Lack of character interaction. It's awkward to see a band of characters that barely seem to know each other, even at the end
>Licenses a shit
>Environments are boring
>Game feels incomplete with sidestories that go nowhere
