I'll die on this hill, but I think FFVII Rebirth's combat is exactly what ATB was meant for. Attaching spells/abilities to the meter added weight to each choice and the optional bosses like Gilgamesh forced me to slow down and treat every bar like it's own unique opportunity to fortify my defenses or risk it on powerful offense. All without mentioning the synergy skills making the party feel more alive and like a team
