Now Sam and DaZ do raise a good point that, in the heat of the moment, it's easy to misclick the wrong thing and get lost in item or ability menus, but, there are ways around that

FFX is CTB

The technical name is CTB; Conditional Turnbased

Yeah that makes more sense

It's as turn based as it can get lol I wish more RPG's ripped it off

It was so tit

and I believe FFXII is called ADB

Or as I like to call it, MMORPGBasedCombat.

Sorry I know everyone makes that joke about 12 lmao

I mean its basically offline FF1

FF11*

I need to play Zodiac Age- I heard it made a lot of changes

I only played PS2

zodiac age made it so much easier to get the best gear

in og FF12 you had this cryptic shit

where you can firetruck up getting the best weapon if you open certain treasures

though Zodiac Age got a new best weapon

Plus unrelated to combat but 12 has my favorite rendition of the Franchise theme, so, yeah, go 12.

at a time where every turn-based RPG feIt the same and was criticized for feeIing sIow, ATB probabIy made peopIe feeI a sense of tension during fights

made it feeI more invoIved

I’m certain the onIy reason ATB is in so many Square games is cuz it was different, and that’s kinda it

nowadays RPGs do things Iike oh speciaI moves in certain conditions, party switching on the fIy, way more unique fusion attacks

so adding what is in essence a timer to fights feeIs a bit too much

DQ11 is good, just not particularly innovative

iss a good oIe modern oId fashioned JRPG

with a hefty bonus of having actuaI voice acting

the quaIity of which varies

I’ll say this, if you want to play an updated traditional JRPG, there’s no better choice

It succeeds very well at what it wants to be

But what it wants to be isn’t for everyone

agree

Especially when the smarter solution to making turn based combat more interesting is to just add a greater variety of tactics the player can employ

Isn't that how the mainline DQ games are. I am just going through what I read but the point of them is more or less to still be the same as the previous games.

Basically yes

lol

they went on the forum too

cracks fingers Amazon has prime day deals today and tomorrow

Let's see what games are on sale

I would do the 2tb ssd for ps5 rn

Samsung evo 980
