Pros
+Colorful cast of characters
+Very Original Storyline
+Game plays like classic Final Fantasy series
+A lot of great aspects from the FF series such as the items, equipment, magic spells, enemy cameos, summon cameos and story elements
+Job system is like a mixture of FF3/5's job system with FF9's leveling up system
+A lot of customization such as changing enemy encounter rate, difficulty, speed of battles
+A lot of social player features such as the ability to send your skills over to a friend
+Unique mini game where you can rebuild Norende town which can yield to powerful items and extra boss battles with unique monsters
+New Game+ is included with more than 1 ending
+Well designed environments and overall design
+Great sound effects and a fantastic sound track
+A lot of replayability and length in the overall game

Cons
-Some of the characters seem generic or just too annoying
-Storyline builds up great but somewhat becomes repetitive second half of the game with few people may hating this aspect although it brings somewhat of a few differences
