Okay...awhile back when the first demo actually came out and summaries of it started to be reported to the general public; one of the first things that came up was Sora and Auron being able to perform combination attacks with each other. A few weeks after that rumors of Minnie being in your party and being able to cast Holy was talked about. Now were in mid-September and we are being told by Gamespot.....
"Minnie isn't exactly the most efficient fighter, so in this level, Sora, who is the only other person in the party, must spend as much time protecting her as he does venturing off and fighting enemies."
Now maybe that's not the case for everybody else that will be in your party but that gives a general idea of what your going to be doing that seems awfully similiar to the first game.
Your going to be doing most of the fighting and not using Triangle attacks or any other special attacks that involve others assistance all the time because its going to consume some type of energy. This probably isn't likely but we might have to on certain lvls keep the same party members we could care less about alive during boss battles or another situation. So characters that we argue over and debate about "who's coolest" might turn out the exact opposite and be what we complain about or wish they had been able to do this or that. The bar of expectations for our allies has been raised a bit too high and I believe many among us will be dissappointed of how its alot like the first game IMHO.
