My wish is that they keep it turn based. I still love old school turn based rpg's. This game is great, and with a faster, streamlined turn based system, it will be great again. Them changing the battle system is stupid to do, why bother remaking the original into something it wasnt? If they have a vision that's completely different, then make a new game with those ideas.


I've been wanting to yell that at them for years and have wanted fans just to bring that up already during Q&A sessions.  They keep making the mistaken assumption that because action RPGs sell over in America well they can just change an already establlished Turn Based RPG franchise into an action RPG franchise and it will sell more..but Pokemon begs to differ and it still outsells pretty much all action RPGs in America, without much effort too.

 

Gamers associate the best of FF with more laid back turn based gameplay, and  recently some of the worst with more action-oriented elements.  The damage has already been done and even though I'm excited about FFXV, I think it will only sell 4-5 millions units LTD.  That might be generous considering Japan's numbers will probably be smaller and preorders for FFXV are half that of KH3 over in America; both being AAA Japanese Action RPGs as it is.
