Oh......you got me excited that FFXV is turn based.
Action RPG's can be good if done well, but often times Action RPG's aren't done well.
Turn based RPG's have a deeper layer of strategic involvement. To give your character dozens of spells in an action RPG wouldn't work because you would need to stop time just to select a spell (like in XenoBlade). Plus you can only name so many spells on screen at once. In a Turn based RPG you can have so many different types of magic, summons, etc.
I understand why most games are Action RPG, people would probably fall asleep playing a Turn based game, but this is what makes rare gems like Lost Odyssey so so good.
