Feel like it’s headed that way and wonder how some of us old timers feel about this direction.
Personally I hope with each title they don’t just create a new story, characters, and universe, but also experiment with turn based again given the success of OT2
As someone who’s been playing since the original game on the NES, that’s fine as long as the games they make are good.
XVI has been amazing (not perfect, of course, there are certainly little things here and there that I wish they’d done a little differently) so far. Turn-based or action doesn’t define the series, so as long as whatever they put out is good (or, more importantly, fun), I’m here for it.
