With all those battles... Ugh. I'm newar to getting my 1st esper already... Almost 20 hours now, and I haven't changed any of my initial equipment.

The battles are getting boring sometimes when all you have to do is stand there moving your leader. I think miss the random battles.

I miss the random fights too.  To be honest, people gotta get use to it for the random battle system might not appear in the future because more people want real time than random battle. 

I agree that it seems to bore me sometimes as well.  When your characters level increase to a higher level, all you have to do is to walk around and do nothing (just let your gambit do it for you).  Besides, there should be more mini games in FFXII, I love mini games :)

Anyway, optional mob hunts, optional bosses, and optional espers in FFXII are the some of the most challenge ones in FF series.  And thats the things that make me feel fun and excited about playing FFXII. 

I bet you will have fun fighting them :)

Optional is fun, but ordinary monsters that can still physically attack you even if you are 5 feet away is just ridiculously annoying and boring me.

It can't possibly be more boring then the crappiness of random battles. I hate them. They suck to such a large degree.

yes that does suck indeed, I remember many times in FFX where I would be completely drained of MP and items and be damn near death yet only a few steps from a save sphere and BAM a battle pops up, other than that random battles are great and I hope SE see's it fit to bring them back but I doubt it :(

excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i really beg to differ! I love 'almost' everything about FF12. the system is very much similar to 11 plus 'gambit' is really the 'IN' system right now. the graphic is great. the opening movie is spectacular. i watch the ending like 6 times before finally decided to play. was busy showing it to the rest of my families and friends- how cool the graphic is. i'm working on my way to be part of SONY's or SQUARE's soon.

If that was a big problem fir you in the random battles, better prepare yourself for FF12... Enemies tend to gang up on your poor 3-member team. :P

I just don't like random battles because they get annoying. Sometimes when your insanely powerful compared to the enemies you don't want to take the time to fight them.

The same thing will happen to you in FF12. So annoying. even if you have killed all the monsters in a particular area... Without leaving the said area, monsters will respawn after few minutes.

Square-Enix should do a combination of real-time battles,walking up to monster, and include random battles, kinda like sneak attacks.

Ah, yes. Make the encounters random. In the battle mode, we can make it FFXII-ish.

If my memory serves me right, no. I think only Belias, Mateus, Famfrit, Chaos and Shumihaza can be acquired in th story. All others are optional.

Grr... Then I gotta hunt him down when the game comes out.

He's my Zodiac (Since each esper is aligned with one, and he is the Capricorn one, and I am Capricorn.), so that kinda makes me want to see him in action.

The espers that come with the story line are Belias, Mateus, Famfrit, Shumihaza, and Hashalim.  Chaos is an optional espers... is kind of complicate to get this esper as well.  Sorry to correct the info FG :)

No prob at all!

So, I've got 4/5. Change Chaos to Hashmalim and I'm perfect! :)
