Some times, you'll reap items as well, though this is not always certain. After winning a fight, the player will be rewarded with experience points, gil (the game's currency - note: In the American localization it was called GP, though once the GBA re-release came around they changed it to gil). In each battle, the player is allowed to have four characters fighting unless there aren't four characters in your party at one time.

If the player doesn't attack at all, then this gives the enemies an advantage as they'll be able to attack as much as they want, while in games prior to the fourth title you could spend as much time as you want deciding on what to do without having to worry about the other enemy attacking. It takes only a few seconds for it to do so, though it can be grueling in a boss battle. With this system, the character will fight though won't be able to do so again until his 'action bar' fills up once more. The combat of VI differentiates itself from some of the other games in the series somewhat, though if anything is similar to Final Fantasy IV because of its use of the Active Time Battle system.

The player is allowed to save his progress either by saving on the world map or by finding a glowing blue light in which he or she must enter in order to save. Most of the villages in the game features shops, inns and minor side quests and of course have something to do with the plot, while dungeons will commonly feature a multitude of increasingly tough enemies and a boss in the end. To travel around the worldmap you're capable of using a Chocobo, and Airship, or just walk by foot (note: the latter is the slowest means of travel, and likewise is not suggested unless the player is level grinding). The various different villages and dungeons are, in typical Final Fantasy fashion, separated by a large world map.
