With the combat being the main draw I think the vanilla version is more fun at its core. That said, I do like the job system because you need to use all of your party rather than just having six clones to swap in and I guess you could just not use Quickenings (or limit them to finishing moves) and not buy all the battle lores immediately to give yourself more of a balanced experience.
Fast forward button is also great for traversing, I've only been going at normal speed for bosses, it doesn't speed up the music or dialogue so it's pretty seamless. Finished Great Crystal at around 35 hours and I've been doing hunts, optional espers and sidequests with two characters near maxed on licenses and nobody over level 45. For replaying purposes it definitely provides a more streamlined experience but I kind of regret going all in with double LP accessories early on.
