I wouldn't want to have a bunch of random npcs on my team like the gc squad. I want memorable npcs that you can find in-game like tataru, aymeric, thancred, yshtola, etc.

Also I'm fine if it's not the same as the FFX version. I would actually like it more if they changed it into a type of PvP or something where you can compete against your friends.

If they made it part of pvp (rewards wolfmarks, PvP exp, tomes) instead of part of gold saucer (rewards mgp) I think it will be a more long lasting content and not die off so easily like Lord of verminion.
