I was so excited to get my hands on this when it originally came out, only to be bitterly disappointed. However, this version resolves the biggest issue I had with the original: character variety. Vaan and Penelo are still of no consequence whatsoever, but the rest of the cast are great. The localisation for is also a wonder, and the voice acting unparalleled. I went from getting halfway through the original to ravenously consuming this one all the way through and nearly 100%'ing it.
