Because they are turn based strategy? FF gets a bit muddy over the years with the ATB but DQ has always been turn based strategy.

FF and DQ aren't even close to turn based strategy! Turn based RPGs, yeah. But strategy? Not even close. You need base building, unit recruiting, different factions to choose from and a main aim of defeating all opposing factions to be a strategy game. FF/DQ don't have a single one of them.

If you want to split hairs that much then yes.

Doesn't mean though that there is any less strategy involved in them.
