Turn based combat will never be fun, it was tolerable, they require no skill whatsoever. Real Time Combat is far more engaging despite the fact that a lot of developers cannot properly implement it. 33 combat was slop.

I mean he's not wrong, FFX is really the last game in the series that had that WOW factor in the mainstream. What actually changed? Was it Sakaguchi leaving?
Had things gone differently and Lost Odyssey was FFXII, would the series be in a different place now or would the decay have still set in?
>>715881413 (OP)
he's fucking wrong
what makes E33 especially good isn't just the gameplay, it's mostly the rest (music, pace, adult dialogues)
15 and 16 would still have the same BIG problems even if you changed their gameplay (and 16 would unironically even loose the best fights, making it way worse)
>>715881413 (OP)
he's right in the sense that the gameplay shifted massively, he's wrong in the sense that ffx is overrated slop and is a linear corridor simulator

These. E33 would be an even bigger hit with some action based combat. With how widespread the praise is, you would think it would be doing WAY bigger sales numbers.

Josh strife in general gives his opinion and it is very tame
OP retard makes them to create rage content with the most cookiecutter opinions ever and pretends they are facts
>>715881413 (OP) >It's a bad sign when Noctis is more fun to play in Tekken than in his own game
Melee combat in anything else than fighting games is ass in general. It's not just FF. For whatever reason, there's a tacit agreement between devs that melee combat must be awful garbage that feels like shit in anything else than fighting games.

FFXII doesn't even have memorable sounds effects, never mind any of that shit you listed.
There's nothing like FFVII's limit break startup.
