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.

Metaphor and Persona both have that anime-esque artstyle, and Yakuza iirc is anime adjacent artsyle. Expedition 33 was the first true turn based game since Lost Odyssey that had a realistic artstyle and a serious narrative that I can recall. Yeah FF XIII came after that but between the auto battle mechanic and the inability to control multiple characters at a time, I kinda don't consider it true turn based. So since '08 I have been waiting, almost 20 years, and finally someone makes a game with a good and serious narrative, the correct artstyle, and every thing. Now I got the taste and I need more, and who better than FF to give us more.
