I think you're confusing turn-based with menu-based.

No I am not. People are. RPGs been playing them for 30 years. Best friend teaches game design. People think somehting like Xenoblade isn't turn based when it is. You have a swing timer in DAO which is based soley on your characters stats. All that is turn based.

If your best friend teaches game design, then maybe you should get together with him and examine what a "turn" is. If I'm playing a game that uses ATB, enemies aren't going to wait their turn, they'll attack while I'm making my decision.
