| Final Fantasy XII Presumably the last "main" game to be released on the PS2, FF12 broke the tradition of Battle Screens. It was also the sixth game ever to receive a perfect 40/40 score from the Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu. |

I found them to be quite powerful, but I only ever used them for the sake of using them. Mainly to see what they looked like, and what their final skill was... which typically looked great with each Esper.
Their use? They're far too underpowered to be really useful in battle. T'is a shame; they're awesome in concept.

I honestly think they have no use. I was quite disappointed with them. Typically with summons/espers in any FF series, they are worthy of your time and quite powerful. They're the ones that make you think, "Yes, my summon's gonna save my butt!"
But did they save my butt in FFXII? Hah, I wish. I remember I died several times when I used them. Sure, they may be in a low level at first, but still...they should at least be useful in any way possible. So I stopped using them altogether since I found that my characters are more powerful all around.

I never use any of the offensive espers because they're just not strong enough for me. I like using the defensive espers, because myparty was just sucking on more of a defense and it actually helps agains my boss fights

Same here. I just used them to see their Special Attacks and Final Skill and just to see what they looked like. =).
Other than that, the Espers were quite useless. They couldn't save me from anything at all.

I thought if they were used well then they would be stronger or help in better ways but it ends up that they're totally useless for me.

They, along with me die whenever I summon them. I suppose Zodiark is decent enough but why bother using him when you already have an extremely powerful party anyway?

I look at them once or twice but I dont see the point in using them when your characters are just as powerful.
