Final Fantasy XII battle instead of the current one

I actually like this idea. Targeting lines would be a nice feature, but battle/target windows are a must! It would make targeting so much easier! And the traditional battle menu is present, that would make choosing spells/items nostalgic and like old times. And give us a reason to have potions in the game xD

But no gambit system. Battles would become more automated than in FFXI, and that would be a problem. I want to actually play out my battles (aside from auto-attack, I still want that at least).

I totaly agree with you. They can bring all features exept the gambit system (plus there is no point in having gambits in FFXIV, as you don't have pc controlled party).
Also they should change a bit some magicks animations, they are a little odd (like fire... it don't really seems like real fire. Like we see in other FFs)

I think that with some actualization they have done. Enemies infos is more like the Ivalician type. Although its a pity we can't just have HP bars for monsters...
Anyway, keep up like that Square Enix

It's a good idea but I don't think you can pitch it to a narrow minded fanbase.

I love this idea of XII's battle system taking place of XIV's PoS system. Too bad we'll probably never see it happen. I too just like many others have stated the target window would be a lovely addition.

Yeah its sad... although I hope we will see something similar to that system someday. It would be very easy to use. The current system is very bad
I'm losing the will to play, they better come up with something new :S

Any news about the new battle system?
