I voted no. Based on I don't like predicting things are better than something I love... sets me up for dissapointment even if its great.
But things I think about it.
It's Directed by Nomura. I haven't particularly liked the games nomura directed (I like him as a character designer, not so much so far as a director see Advent Children, Kingdom Hearts (but people like this))... but it's written by Nojima... so I'm excited about that.
The artstyle so far, no
The music so far, no
The battle System: If it's like kingdom Hearts or crisis core, and not substantially improved (haven't played BBS so not comparing it to that) then hell no
The mini-games/more freedom (supposedly) hell yes.
World Map. (Don't Care, really not necessary, but doesn't hurt the game)
And No, because even if it is better... it didn't kill FFXIII in any way because it still exists.
This thread is not the pinnacle of useful thinking.
That said, I hope it beats FFXIII in every way... because I want the best game possible. So far, I'm very excited about it. I just hope Nomura's Not being like Moleneux or whatever and saying things that aren't going to be in the game.
