but little did I know where the game truly shined was it's combat


No no no no.

FFXII's battles are not good. This was pre-Xenoblade and they hadn't figured out how to do the "offline single-party MMO" thing yet. Everything is painfully slow, and the most effective strategy for 98% of the battles is to just regular attack and heal <10%.

The story actually has a lot going for it. I think "FF as Star Wars" was actually a great way to go. They just decided to tell it almost entirely through cutscenes, which was ambitious but also means there's a lot that gets left out. And then development hell happens and Matsuno gets ousted.

Vahn does suck, but all of the cast suffer because of how little story there is. There's a lot of plot but not story, if that makes sense.
