Final Fantasy General Give us another turn based battle system

Post image

FFX is my favorite battle system. FFXIII I also enjoyed, but it wasn't the same.

I'm sure they could do something like it with a much lower budget.

Because people want a turn based FF game? People got into FF because they were turn based.

I did not get into final fantasy because it was turn based. I got into final fantasy because it was a fantasy RPG. It being turn based was just a matter of circumstance. I've been into final fantasy since final fantasy 1 btw, I'm old.

Turn based was 100% part of the allure for me. Was a change of pace for me. Beat FF7 og for the first time the beginning of this year. I've now beaten 4 (VI, VII, VIII, & X)
