I heard there actually is a New Game+ feature, where you can just blast through with maxed stats. Is that so?
Also, I'm speaking from a slightly subjective platform here, but I felt the characters suffered from "Lol, Japan" syndrome. They were mostly young, idealized individuals fitting generic character roles. The body language was pretty solid, but the faces were a little too pretty-plastic, and the hair and costumes didn't strike me as anything special. I thought most of FFVIII's main character designs were less obnoxious.
@Wahay Hey haven't heard from you in a while, man! Good to see you're still around.
Anyways, I have not heard of a New Game+. If it exists I would LOVE to give it a go so let me know. Otherwise the best I know is that at the end of the game, you can make a save file. Loading it will put you right before the room with the final boss, and let you go around and finish the side-quests while opening up the final stage of the Crystarium for final development (get super-pumped with tons more HP, etc). No more skills though, sadly. And certainly not a new game +.
@Kryst Thanks, man. I really enjoyed the game, so I also enjoyed writing about it. It was my first IC review, so your words are a great encouragement to continue to do more. ^_^

I, too, find myself enjoying this installment of Final Fantasy. Granted, FFII, FFIV, and FFVI-FFX are my favorites.
