I think what it boiled down to was they didn't like the battle system (more specifically the magic drawing, and monsters leveling up as you do) , and they probably felt they should have gotten gil after every battle rather than from walking around.

I personally found it pretty good, and if you're a reasonably good player you have mountains of unspent gil before your anywhere near the end of the game. I think I finished the game a level 16 SeeD via the test, I actually started out a 9 or something like that.
