    ~Poll~ Longer fights <Do you want it?>

    So, I'm wondering if people would like longer fights. The reason why I bring this up is, the fights are REALLY short in this game. I'm leveling up thm and the only spells I use are; Thunder, Thundara, which makes the mobs go down. There really isn't any reason for me to use the other spells/abilities or combos(can you even get combos off?). Which will bring me to my next point, longer fights will teach you how to use those other abilities. If things go wrong, you will also learn what to do in a panic situation for ifrit,moogle, and other big fights. The longer fights would have adjusted exp for em as well. So, the whole "Get less exp" argument is out of the window as well.

    So, would you guys like longer fights that are more engaging?

    Yep, which I believe even Yoshida is in favor of since he quoted a time of 40 seconds or so? Not every encounter, but as you grow in levels, higher level mobs should be tougher to defeat, not the same as defeating a level 10 mob just with different abilities.

    People jump to extremes when any form of grinding is brought up. I like longer fights because it puts your abilities and skills to the test since some monsters as of now, at all levels can barely even get 1 TP move off because they die so quickly, only at the very start levels do you realistically see exp mobs living long enough to do..anything but attack maybe twice.

    If you would have read my post, I said exp would be adjusted sooo the whole getting less exp is out of the question.

    then I guess I dont care, I dont find killing normal mobs fun I find killing bosses fun, killing normal ones is something I'm forced to do to get to the fun part.

    Also not everyone is a THM, as well as thunder thundara is a combo and the combo is what makes it so awesome

    I like the length of xi's old style camping leveling fights. Had plenty of time to wear the mob down instead of just nuking it to death with two spells. At least for full group exp parties.
