Oh, sugar coat it all you want, thats quite a bad thing to some.

While I see where you're coming from....don't 99% of RPG's start off by only letting you control a few characters? At the very least EVERY Final Fantasy game I can think of has done that.

No, for example, SO4, ... sure you start off with a select group of characters, however your not forced to use them if you have more characters you'd like to use instead.
The only times it was done in SO4's case is when Edge has to fight one-on-one with Faize and Arumat, other then that your free to use whoever you want.
From what i understand, if you had Snow and lighting as an example, and i wanted to use Snow, but the game forced lightning on me instead... thats the part thats irritating, i've not once played an' RPG of any kind that tried pulling a stunt like that before.

I think I'm finally starting to get what you're saying. So you're issue is not with a fixed party...it's more with who you control within the party?

Exactly, Finally someone around here gets it... that would be silly since nearly every RPG game, be it WRPG, MMO or JRPG, you always start off with a select few, thats fine, its awesome finding new characters or making new online buds.
But... in FFXIII's case, the only characters i'd use through-out the whole game would have been Snow, Sazh an' Vanille. thats not gonna be though until late in the game, which messes with my good nature.
I'll still play the game, but i wont own it, if gameplay is fun an' fast paced like SO4 or IU an' the like thats all that matters in the end, even if i dislike most of the playable characters.
