Not to confuse with another acronym that have a completely different meaning.Hell yeah!
Jokes aside I found it to be a more dynamic turn based system.

LMAO I was about to say.Not to confuse with another acronym that have a completely different meaning.

It always felt to me like Square wanted FF to move on from turn based gameplay since 12. Then came 13 with the ATB Queue Paradigm Shifting craziness and eventual we arrived at 15 and then 16/7R. If you want, you can blame Tetsuya Nomura.
I'm a turn based rpg lover.
But i love the Growlanser 4 type of battle system, for example.
To me actions Rpg are slightly worse that turn based, i may be a bit nostalgic about this.
I know someone here who like Tetsuya :D
ATB shows its limits when you're alone.LMAO I was about to say.
Have to agree. ATB is good but CTB just had more oomph to it. The fact it was the final mainline turn based game (not counting X2) also gives it more mystique. Really love FFX
I love you so much.NOMURRAAA!!!! YOUR LIFE ENDS HERE!!!!!!!!!!! RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

see i saw atb, i read the comment your talking about, yet i read that as anti lock braking systemATB shows its limits when you're alone.
Maybe we can get more variants.
The success of Baldur's Gate 3 proves that the mainstream is still down for turn based games.I am happy that we still get some big turn based RPGs, like Yakuza 7 & Infinite Wealth and (admittedly in a slightly different form) Baldur's Gate 3,
Yes, notice how there is only one?the world if Nomura didn't exist:

baldur's gate 3 really wasn't mainstream, it just hit every pc gamer, which made it reach mainstream numbers, if that makes sense. plus most of the numbers came AFTER the game awards lol. there's a reason there was a massive outcry amongst the mainstream when it won goty. (and i gotta admit as someone who LIKES bg3 it is NOT that special it's good but didnt "redefine the industry" like everyone was saying its just a quality crpg). i still think armored core 6 deserved goty, or even mario wonder.The success of Baldur's Gate 3 proves that the mainstream is still down for turn based games.
That level of freedom looks like the way to go. Maybe someone will recreate a FF campaign with the recent world building mods.

And how exactly does armored core or the 100th mario redefine the industry?baldur's gate 3 really wasn't mainstream, it just hit every pc gamer, which made it reach mainstream numbers, if that makes sense. plus most of the numbers came AFTER the game awards lol. there's a reason there was a massive outcry amongst the mainstream when it won goty.

Bro...tell me you did not just write that,baldur's gate 3 really wasn't mainstream, it just hit every pc gamer

Wheel lock up = stop status.Maybe it is
yousef turned from petite anime girl to surly bearded manMaybe it is
That's some pretty sharp insight. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Reading everyone's comments made me realize that things are, perhaps, not as dire as I assumed for turn based RPGs after all.I think one of the current paradigm shifts is away from Squenix. They don't have their western arm to blame for their losses, and the last financial reports show that. when FF7 Remake 2 can sell buckets and buckets and they are still not satified...
They are activly killing Platnum with GaaS, they are dumping their SIngle A games so no one knows they released, and they keep doing Web3 nonsense.
Is the only reason they are still afloat FF14? if FF7R2 and FF1 "Failed to meet expectations" the only play they have left is what ever they are doing to Kingdom Hearts, or get bought.
the Rest of the Console RPG ecosystem seems to be leaving them and the more they step into Character Action the harder it will be.
Sorry, I got a bit worked up. I use to be a fan of Square's work, and not just FF. Einhander Parasite Eve, Front Mission, Star Ocean and so on. I have a real disdain for their current leadership doing dumb things. Other COnsole RPG makers are picking up the Slack. Sega alone is probably the new home for Japanese Turn base RPG, and the Western games play fine on consoles, outside of BG3 on the little Xbox series.That's some pretty sharp insight.

I think you misunderstood. I was praising your perception and frankness. None of what you said is untrue, so there's nothing to feel uncertain about.Sorry, I got a bit worked up.

I don't know how to feel aobut my salt coated facts being taken this face value. ┬─┬ノ( º _ ºノ)
I think I did Misunderstood. Sorry about that. like I said not sure how feel.I think you misunderstood. I was praising your perception and frankness. None of what you said is untrue, so there's nothing to feel uncertain about.
I understand you feeling this way. Companies repeatedly tell us they know what we want, as fans, and almost always that is untrue; they don't know, and if they do know, then they almost always fail to care (they are a business first, after all, and everything begins and ends with the bottom line).I think I did Misunderstood. Sorry about that. like I said not sure how feel.
Maybe some sort of ATB hybrid with Press Turn system elements like exploiting a weakness halves your wait for next turn?ATB shows its limits when you're alone.
