Here's a look at the battle system, and it just doesn't seem that compelling all on its own, but could just be me.

View it like playing a sports game - let's just say NHL 10.

Now, in previous years, players get injured, and are out for a few days/weels based on how they preformed in fights/hits etc.

Now, if you completely remove the fact that if a player gets injured he will be out in future games, that changes the dynamic of the "well-being" factor of your players/characters.

Well, no, because the coach would just use a potion on the player if they were ever injured or some Phoenix down on the player if they were killed. The coach is always prepared for that kind of stuff.

It's like talking to a wall with another wall for a brain.

My point is that with enough phoenix downs and potions and white magic available, there never should have been a point where you were traveling through the game with unconscious or dead team members. Comparing to a hockey game is apples and oranges.

For two people who enjoy the game, they certainly do make fun of the game a lot.

That demo is of a much earlier version of the battle system which the developers have said numerous times is not fully reflective of the actual game, so much so that if there were to be a demo for North America they wouldn't be able to release that same demo. Plus the entire purpose of releasing that demo a year before the game's release was to asses fan feedback.

But anyways, has anyone actual looked at the screens posted? http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=5921

Game looks beautiful. The first actual, fully realized RPG of the HD era, it's very exciting.
