Turn Based vs Real Time

Posted in Off Topic

It's sad to me that turn based games seem to be going the way of the dodo to make room for the new generation of video gamers who seem to prefer real time games. I played Dragon Warrior and most of the old Final Fantasy games back in the day but now it seems that game companies don't want to make such games anymore. Am I just getting too old for video games?

I prefer turned based but also enjoy real time. I'd like to see games have the option of either in them. Some games shouldn't be turn based as it slows down the pace and the other way around too. Funny thing is that techincally if yo uuse VATS fallout 3 is turn based lol.

Final Fantasy Adventure for the Gameboy is real-time, and plays like a mash-up of Legend of Zelda and Final Fantasy. I'm actually playing through right now using my GBA-SP.

I thought I heard the online FF was real-time, too, but I never played it so I'm not sure.

I like em both.I like the strategy that comes with turn-based fighting but I also like not waiting to hit and be hit.Dark Cloud is a great real time RPG as well as the new Fall Out,I think it'd be interesting to see a real time Final Fantasy.

Real-time, for sure. Games like Diablo, Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, Oblivion, and others are 10x more fun than your Final Fantasys or Dragon Warriors. But during the 8-bit and 16-bit eras, turn-based ruled the RPG scene.
