Here we go with a never ending and tiresome topic that is being mentioned every single time a new Final Fantasy game is being announced..
With the upcoming release of Final Fantasy XVI, many fans are now again voicing out their dislike towards the action oriented fighting systems of the new games.
While the turn-based system was the root of the classic entries, it was being constantly improved and modified and goes by many different names like ATB, CTB, RTB, ADB or CSB. All of them with different changes and twists to make the fighting more interesting and versatile.
When developing Final Fantasy XV and the AXB system, SE completely eliminated the turn based system and went full real time and action oriented. With the newest main entry coming this June, we will get another game that will be all about action. Many already call it "button mashing" without even playing it lol
I think it is also funny how many people complain there are no turn based Final Fantasy games anymore but a big majority of them didn't even play World of Final Fantasy. If you mention it, they will complain about graphics, Chibi look, Pokémon copy bla bla... Some people just want to complain and think SE will make a game extra for them..
But there is also a recent entry that has (in my opinion) the perfect battle system: Final Fantasy VII Remake! It is a hybrid of ATB and action based and offers fans of both systems possibilities based on their preferences.
If you are looking for turn-based games, you can still find a lot even being made by Square Enix! Dragon Quest, Octopath Traveler, Bravely Default are just few examples of really great games offering exactly this! Or if you want to try something not made by Square Enix, try out the recent hit Chained Echos! Releases few months ago and available for every platform!
