Almost thought this was a troll thread... I understand what you're trying to say here, but I have to disagree.
I prefer turn-based RPG since they require more thought and strategy if you want to do well. I usually don't like hack'n'slash games since they're often just button-mashy, and that's not what I think of when I think of "Final Fantasy".
That said, I do enjoy action-RPGs if they're slower paced with difficulty scaled up to compensate. That makes it more about strategy, instead of just impulse decisions.
