Yes Armor is necessary in Final Fantasy.

Yes Armor should be visible

Armor should improve a number of things, obviously Defense, but it should give some special abilities also. Ex, Magic damage increase, Always haste, etc.

I think armor should be visible and that there should be two different types of armor. One which slightly increases defense, but doesn't lower speed and one that greatly increases defends, but lowers speed.

i think it should change your appearance but not so it covers you up (like platemail) but like subtle bits of metal or leather

I say, it is necessary, but shouldn't be visible. Armor penalties would suck.

Yes, armour should exist in Final Fantasy's

Yes, it makes it more realistic when it is visable 

They should improve mainly your Defence and Magic Defense

yes and making it visible adds more realism to the game, as long as it boosts defensive factors mostly, some may boost other factors too, such as magic but these shouldn't be considerable boosts for the most part. only factor i can think of that may drop would be speed while wearing heavy armour. Also there should be a considerable variety of armour, from light leather to heavy metal armour for the variety of characters.

yes much better that way, besides a good set of armor just makes you look more badass, but I think each characters armour should have a distint look to them that way your two knights (warriors whatever you wanna call them) dont look the exact same in their plate armour and helmet

but as you level your stats should increase to where the armour penalty isnt quite as great and as long as you keep the right armour on the right class (no full plate on Yuna ;):P) then the penalties should be pretty much non-existant

Exactly. I don't see why some people are weirded out by the thought of it affecting speed.
