kupoartist is on a distinguished road
Indeed there are other threads, but I will point out somthing: There are no "FFTactics" elements whatsoever - Changable Character Classes have been in the series since the last of the NES games (or to a lesser extent, the first ever FF game), so they're not truely a Tactics element. Regardless, Character Classes are often very cool (they made FF5 into a half-decent game) and are therefore a welcome addition. But no turn-grid-based combat and epic battles for us... bah.

As for the Charlies Angel's idea... I can see that ^_^ - who knows... FF6 was the only game so far with Female mains, and that was one of if not the best FF game so far... can FFX-2 use it's girl power to it's advantage?

-

Oh and has anyone else noticed the rule of three in FF games? There is always 3 playable main females in the main series:

FF4: Rosa, Rydia, Palom (or Porom... I forget)
FF5: Reina, Faris, Krile
FF6: Terra, Celes, Relm
FF7: Aeris, Tifa, Yuffie.
FF8: Rinoa, Selphie, Quistis
FF9: Garnet, Eiko, Freija.
FF10: Yuna, Rikku, Lulu.

Ok... so 8 and 9 bend the rules a bit
Spoiler: show
Edea and Beatrix are token bad peoples who you can play as for all of 5 seconds
but aside from that, are these girls all we can expect in FFX-2 ?
