I like the idea of trying to make every character feel like a main character, but that can backfire. I believe that's what they were kind of trying for with FFXII, and instead it ended up where noone really felt like a main character and you were playing with a bunch of side characters.

 

Or it could end up like FF6 which had an awesome cast of characters all fleshed out.

very true.  Don't get me wrong, I would love it if it worked out.  I just hope they don't fall into the same pitfall.  I think the main issue was that FFXII didn't focus enough on character development in general, so when you spread that out among all the characters they felt like side characters.  Now if instead you really delved into each character and gave them development worthy of a main character, then it would work out awesome.
