Personally, I don't care about the shape, I just wouldn't mind more fights where the arena itself is an integral part of the fight, rather than just a patterned surface on which the fight takes place. E3S, E4S, E9S tiles phase... heck, I'd argue that even P2S is a decent example.

(The arena in P3S is part of the fight too, but that's less due to actual mechanics involving the arena and more due to really bad color palette choices.)
1.0 got a lot of things right but damn if nael and the rivenroad encounter isn’t still one of my absolute favourite encounters in the game up until this point, that fight was so iconic
