I played this game solely from my desire to play through every mainline Final Fantasy game. Out of FF I through V, this game took me the longest to complete. Not due to difficulty, but there were several points at which I put down the game to play later, but just did not have interest in coming back. I feel I never would have completed it except for my desire to go through every mainline FF game. That said, once I completed it, I think it wasn't a BAD game, it just wasn't a GOOD game. I think it was longer than it needed to be, and while I love the job system, it feels like there was a lot of imbalance in that some job / ability combinations were insanely strong and others insanely weak. I think it wouild be more fun if there wasn't such a wild discrepancy between the job builds.
