Final Fantasy XIII better than Final Fantasy XII?

how would you compare the battle system to XII out of curiosity?

Nothing similar. Very action oriented.

 

That sums it up best.

 

If I get this game and hate the battle system, I'll buy a copy of Dot Heroes and make a video of me breaking it in half while you watch in agony!!

My big thing with RPGs is I like to have control over my actions, which is why I like the trun-base system and why I consider XII an abomination to the FF series.

I got admit, I'm considering giving FF another chance after readind some people's comments.

 

Well even though XIII has auto-battle you can still insert your actions manually. Sometimes auto-battle does not pick the best moves to perform, like when fighting enemies with elemental weaknesses I choose to enter all my attacks on my own, I deal much more damage that way. It also allows me to easily repeat all those actions by holding one button.

It gives much more control than FFXII did, which was basically a game where you set your gambits and sit back and watch.

 

 

Also if you end up not liking it and breaking a copy of 3DDGH I wouldn't care because you still paid for it and gave Atlus and FromSoftware your money.
