What 2006 video game reviewers were getting at with their careful critiques was that Final Fantasy XII had more in the way of MMO elements, especially regarding the battle system and meandering maps, than previous -and much more traditional - Final Fantasy games. I'd completely skipped out on the latter because a) I didn't have a PC powerful enough to run it at the time and b) I didn't want to splurge on the requisite hard drive bundle for PS2.

Less VII, VIII, IX, and X and much more XI, the online-only experience. Now, prior to starting the game, I'd read that Square Enix's newest entry was somewhat different than the previous Final Fantasy efforts.
