The first game was good but overrated imo. Very shallow in terms of equipment, classes, movesets and actual strategy needed to progress through the levels.
Hopefully this game will be much deeper but atm I'm not interested as FFTactics A2 is right around the corner and it doesn't get much deeper than that!
Will check this out when the inevitable US/EUR version comes though afaik it hasn't been dated yet.
Anyone know Famitsu scores for this game? Usually a good indication of quality/progress from first game.
