Oh man,
@Klutz64 , you gotta change that. It's very much a spiritual successor to V.
@Andrew - the reason I ask is because I enjoyed XII, but had problems with it. Big problems. I don't define it by its problems, like most FF fans tend to do with the ones they don't like, but I recognize that they're there and had a negative impact on me.
TZA, on the other hand, is one of the best video games I have ever played in any franchise. It fixed almost every single problem I had with XII. It is very close to a "perfect" Final Fantasy. But, for obvious reasons, many people who view Vanilla XII as the best FF have some problems with the changes in TZA. That doesn't seem to be the case for you, though?
