I personally enjoyed XII a lot becasue of the battle system. Also, I didn't think that the story was dull or crap, I actually thought it was great, a war epic almost and for the first time in a FF series I felt that the story was actually more important than the characters, this was a war and these characters were involved in it, unlike X (which I really enjoyed as well) that it all revolved around Tidus and Yuna or VII with Cloud.
And yeah, Vaan was a weak character, weakest I've seen in a the series actually. I prefer Prince edward from FFIV hehehe
The battle system with the Gambits and such I honestly thought it was cool, a little more realistic, at least to the point where you can run around the battle field/enemy and pretend to dodge attacks, and you could actually turn those Gambits off and play it almost turn-based.
Finally, I thought Balthier was pretty awesome, my and I loved hisdialogue.
