one thing ive never seen in pvp from games ive played is a spectator mode where players can watch other fight seeing as this is mean to be an arena what arena would be complete without a crowd?
and what crowd wouldnt want to place a bet on a team to earn some extra gil?
allowing the crowd to place a bet on a team to win this may draw in the attention of the more casual pve players who wouldnt normally take a second look at pvp
