This game could have perfectly been the best Final fantasy but it failed in a couple of very important things: the characters and the story.
It has in my opinion the best universe of all, Ivalice.
The world is full of side content and variety in characters, races, monsters, cities, fields, deserts, beaches, mines, caves etc etc etc etc.
The battle system changes drastically with respect to the previous games by introducing the Gambits system, with which you can program quite precisely how you want your characters to act in any situation.
The progression is also interesting, based on a board that you have to fill through experience to equip yourself.
However, as I said, the characters are irrelevant and boring except for a couple of them, and the story is a simple political brawl.
