I really like FFXII in terms of story, gameplay, and even graphics...
Although I thought they tried too hard and failed- FFX's graphics were
better.  Anyway... Either you're going to be a TBRPG
(Turn-Based-Role-Playing-Game) or you're going to be an ARPG
(Action-Role-Playing-Game).  FFXII has done a commendable job at trying to
be both, but I think the game would've been MUCH better if it had been one
or the other instead of trying to be both...  That being said, I'm at the
point where I'm about to enter the Tomb of Raithwall.... so for all I know
it could change...

P.S.

Also, I'm at level 18 with most of my characters and they aren't even close
to breaking the 1.000 HP mark....

Just doesn't seem like FF to me.....

Have you been using the licenses?  There are some that will give 100 or 500
hp.  I find that working on the top portion of the board the best stratagy.
Bottom portion is armor and weapons, if you don't own it then the license
points you use to equip it is worthless but the top portion has the bonus
stuff like hp, mp regen, and such.  Personally I find that 12's graphics are
better then 10's myself.  As for turn based vs action... well once those
gambits are set up I hardly ever have to even hit a button during combat.
My healer heals on her own without prompt, everyone regens themselve when
needed, ect.  Personally I don't bother looking at hp and mp when it comes
to comparing one game against another, I look at how hard or easy it is to
survive when I put the same amout of effort to each game.

I know I shouldn't complain... it's kind of like Battlestar Galactica- The
new one is one of the best shows on TV right now, and the same can't be said
of the original.... yet, the Starbuck character sucks!  Strike that- the
character doesn't suck, the fact that they made Starbuck a girl does.  I
think the actress playing the part is great, but she shouldn't be called
Starbuck because she's not him.  I don't know if that makes any sense.
Either way, all complaints aside, GREAT GAME!!!!

Perhaps you're simply a latent homosexual who is overcompensating?

Why? I hate having to scroll through all the stuff that I have already read
to read the new post.

Oh well.  I guess I will be different.

Well first of all, Retardo, you're not using a news browser, you're
using a MAIL BROWSER with a rather sloppy and poorly implemented news
browser extension that was hacked onto the bitch as a half assed after
thought.  So that's part of your problem, see REAL news browsers have
nifty features so that when you reply it automatically goes to the
BOTTOM of the post.  Woah, ya see how that works.

Further, by top posting you are f.cking UP THREAD CONTINUITY.  Now,
yer kind of a sloppy assed n00b so I don't expect you to even REMOTELY
comprehend what the f.ck thread continuity even is and, well, quite
frankly I can't even be arsed at the moment to even sum up enough want
or bother to try to explain it to your stupid a.s.  So instead, I
think I'll just let you keep on top posting like the fuckin short bus
riding retard that you are, for my own personal amusement if nothing
else.  ^_^
