Yes, in FFA weapon switching is vital and done very frequently, as anyone who played the game should remember (to cut trees, go over pits, etc, etc). In FFA it was simple -- pause, choose weapon, switch... switching items/magic (same button) was done a lot too (since you can only hold one), but not as often...
Oh, like two or three weeks ago I got the rom (yes, in English) of the game... but managed to stop myself after playing about half an hour. Wasn't easy... :)
Yeah, the fact that it has save locations while the original had save-anywhere is quite dissapointing... not surprising, sinceall the games after the first one also had the save spots (statues), but dissapointing nonetheless...
The story... clearly based on the classic game's story, but with a lot more complexity. I thought the beginning parts were okay at least... sure, it's hardly the best story ever (and is clearly based on a hugely expanded version of the classic, which IMO is great... I loved FFA...)
But then again, I love the series, so I am hardly a fair judge of the game. :)
Now the question is... can I wait all the way to Christmas to get this, or will I like spend everything I have left and buy it now...
Oh yeah, and as for length... I at least would say that you'd want to play it through twice, once as each character, since the story seems to be fairly different from each side...
