We should ally with the Garleans

[Xanikk999]

It's pretty much far too late to have any form of "choice" in this game unless Square's next Final Fantasy lets you pick sides from the get go. Even then, most Final Fantasy stories are linear anyway, so I don't see that trend changing anytime soon.

Maybe in the sense of something as dramatic as working for the empire. I think though they could give us more choices in quests though rather than simple dialogue choices that lead to the same result anyway.
