Turn based durrrrrr. It's what FF is known for, it just wouldn't feel right for it to be real time.

I would really like to know, since i kinda feel like i was the only one who didn't like FF12... the critics, the players, just about everyone seems to love every single detail of that game. I for one hated that board system, or the gambit system. But nothing compares to that horrible real time fights... i mean, if i wanna play a MMORPG i play WOW, not FF. Well maybe i'm just way off

Then you are not a FF fan. My point is, if people who never played FF wants an action game, i believe square enix can deliver some sort of action game with some RPG elements to it and name it whatever they wish. But FF is all about random encounters, hard boss fights, leveling up, great story, good character customization, turn based fights, and so on

Well FF13 looked something like MMORPG combat stile , something new in to FF universe , but FF is not about that its about the roots of its game-play. FF7 to FFX had that turn based combat and ppl liked it , with FFXII they decided to bring something new in some way that worked ( well at least for me ), but FF is not about something so different and new its about the core game-play that it had in previous games. They should only concentrate to make the leveling-up strange and different from other games and leave the combat system as it was turn based.

Honestly, where were all you people back in the day? I'm seriously astounded by how many people only started playing consoles this generation because it seems like no ones played the first metal gear solid or even Final Fantasy (anytihng lower then 9)

I feel you on that statment man, but these times are changing. Just the other day I heard a rap song that sounded like it was being looped and I officailly declared myself old. I grew up during the atari era so that truly dates me some. Alot of the new gamers today started on the PS2 so they will be out of touch and us OG gamers need to show them how it all began when it wasn'y always about textures and polygons. Sprites and vextor graphics for life, lol...

I agree wholeheartedly. The fighting system was a mess cuz it felt like a hack and slash rather than a strategy based endeavor. They should stick to turn based. (Somethings should never change) The story, however, was top notch.

if itsexactly like final fantasy 12 i garuntee you it will be the best one yet. Yeah i love the old games all the way up through X-2, havent ever played 11 but hey, but yeah seriosly i can't find a single thing wrong with 12 other than it's different.

The only reason anybody wouldn't like these games is because of CHANGE. People fear CHANGE!

I would be so happy if they went with the same battle system that they used in 12. I loved what they did with mixing it up a bit.

Can't we sign some sort of petition or something? I just don't want SE to **** it up again with XIII. I wish they listened to their fanbase (assuming the fanbase behaves somewhat like this poll, turn based 63% against real time 37%. And there are some people who never played a FF in their life in that 37%)

HELLZ YEAH!!!! Look at Kingdom Hearts.... best RPG ever imo... honestly i'd take it over FF anyday.... turn based gets so annoying at timez.... it's doesn't have enough action for me... idk Final Fantasy might not be better if it was real-time and then again maybe it could... but i will get number 13 no matter wat... it looks awesome!!

THats probably why they are releasing 2 games this time around. 1 might be the real-time turn base mixed adventure while the other will be the action rpg with no turn based parts at all.

FF13 will be a hybrid of action and turn based something more than FF12 was. Whereas FFv13 will follow a more "kingdom hearts" approach to combat, the team on versus hopes to achieve something that has been seen in Advent Children.

http://finalfantasyversusxiii.net/ thats where I look for my info and follow the links they have to other FF13 sites.

Turn based. I wasn't a big fan of FF12's real time battle system. Not enough control over all the characters.

i finished all the Final Fantasies' 1 through 10, i played 11 well theres no actually finish to it cuz its online. but when i got 12 i really lost interest going through the game, maybe the real time based battle didn't get to me that much. so yeah i like turned based battle.

I want XIII to be...a more refined version of XII's battle system.

Personally, I thought XII was...okay. Even though the story was "adult," Ididn't care about the characters enough...which I usually find a handful in every one I've played thus far (VII-VIII-IX-X-X2-XII, Tactics)...the battle system had its pros and cons...I liked not having random encounters...and the soundtrack, though nice, I couldn't really find any song as my fav. for that game (the closest being the theme for Mt. Bur-Omisace)...

I'll probably have to replay XII again to re-assess my thoughts on it...all I hope for is that XIII and Versus XIII turn out to be great games, with really engaging characters (especially the protagonists, because I'd like to relate to the main characters), epic story,and fun gameplay that the Final Fantasy series is known for.

Amen!

I'm only 17, turning 18 in a few months. But I consider myself OG :lol:

I started gaming at around 3 or 4. My dad was mid 20's so he was still into gaming, thats how I got into it.

I loved those days, now everyone goes :cry: over textures. Every game has to score a 9 for it to be consideredgood and it has to be photorealistic with absolutely no flaws. Sad they dont understand that gaming is about having fun. Their missing out on alot.

I wouldn't mind seeing the XII battle system(not turn based, but not action either) again, but with more balance(make magic more useful and weaken the effectiveness of normal attacking).

FFXIII: turn-based

FFVersusXIII: real-time

(which is pretty much what we are getting)
