If Xenoblade Chronicles where a SE property. Supreme graphics + big marketing budget, that game could really be one of the most beloved one. Since it was released in the Wii, graphics aren't good plus the art style of the characters are more Xeno which i believe some doesn't like.
Sorry for bringing up Xenoblade, but it has some great attributes that could bring into an FF franchise which FF lacks.
It would really be an issue if it is full turn-based combat or if it is purely action-type(real time).
Story campaign is linear for me, but can have multiple side quest for world exploring. great cast, and around 7-9 playable characters. maybe 3-4 party members on an FF XIII type of combat. but hopefully avoid that auto (button mashing) option, should have a way to turn it off from the beginning.
World should be massive that airships is present, bring in several elements across all FF series but not in a crazy way.
