Can't they at least give a shot to a 1060p 60fps classic turn-based RPG? Sure we have almost the most recent classic-based turn-based RPG Lost Odyssey, but why aren't we getting more of that epicness?

Lost Odyssey still remains the modern/classic turn-based RPG, and the fact that we're not getting anything like it is really, really disappointing in the video game industry when devs are trying to hard to "revamp" and creating new ways of gameplay.

Lost Odyssey is godly. But sadly, good turn-based games like that cost a lot but don't sell much.

Final Fantasy games cost more and more to make. Square just wants to sell more and more in turn. So they try new, different things to entice newcomers and make the series more popular. If they lose some bitter long time fans in the process of making the appeal broader for the rest of the gamers out there, those who may never have been into the series because of the archaic turn-based gameplay,  then there's no harm really done.
