Thanks to the both of you for some detailed and illuminating responses.
I'm a bit unsure whether or not I'd fall in love with this game. My favourite strategy game is StarCraft, and the reason I love it is because of its storyline and characters. Sure the gameplay and music are top-notch, but it's the riveting plot and great writing that get to me.
If your characters in FF Tactics are less detailed, unimportant battle-drones, than I don't think this would be a game for me. I really couldn't care less how people fight each other in any given game; I'm more interested in why they're fighting.
(And I think there was some confusion. Nobuo Uematsu is the composer of the music; he's not involved in the design of the characters. (as far as I know.))
