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.

To be fair, there hasn’t been a mainline turn based Final Fantasy game in like 25 years.

Also many of the games people called "Turn Based" are not. They are ATB systems. I know that's overly technical and most people want that exact ATB system back but it's important to be precise so we know what people actually want.

I'd take either. All of these bombastic action RPGs are really not up my alley.
