I enjoyed the first game. There was lots of spirited competition and even when an individual seemed to have taken a major setback, through the fight and party system, they bounced right back into action.
Overall it felt very balanced. With the greater EN available there was more opportunity to experiment. Everyone was more dynamic in their play and I found it to be good fun.
Not sure what sort of wrench the trade system would put into this. Personally I think the game would become a crap-can again with a trade system implemented at the levels of action the current game offers. I'd be a shame to go from a fun game to one that is more like a chore. Mindless entertainment if you will: no major future prediction needed.

not sure about trade will probably re implement it as some kind of special purchase "for a limited time/quantity only". Probably one that also costs energy.
