Could anyone tell me is type-O a turn based rpg like the main FF games or some other genre wrapped up in the FF name like the FF7 sequel which was an action TPS game or one of the rhythm/music things? Excuse my ignorance.

The game plays a LOT like Crisis Core:FFVII from what I understand, possibly the same team. it is an Action JRPG. You get to control more than just one character tho, a total of 13-15 main ones with different skill types. The game emulates old turnbased JRPGs in other ways. They were able to actually create an over head map on a handheld game(yet couldn't in FFXIII). You can travel freely across the map to towns and various locations. A side attraction they have implemented is an RTS like battle simulator that shows randomly on the overhead map where you control the troops. Think Falcon Fort in FFVII.

The game is indeed still using Fabula Nova Crystalis lore, even tho it lost the XIII name. This just means you will hear the terms Fal Cie and L'cie sprinkled within. I think it also might have multiplayer features but unsure of how they work exactly.

Over all, if Crisis Core and KH:Birth By Sleep had a child, it would be Type-0. They basically took pointers from both of those games and crafted something unique.
