Final Fantasy 16 ditched turn-based combat to appeal to younger generations, producer says | VGC

has said that the reason Final Fantasy 16 doesn’t feature turn-based combat is so that the game will to appeal to a younger audience.

“I’m from a generation that grew up with command and turn-based RPGs,” Yoshida said. “I think I understand how interesting and immersive it can be. On the other hand, for the past decade or so, I’ve seen quite a number of opinions saying ‘I don’t understand the attraction of selecting commands in video games’.

“For several console generations now, all character expressions can be done in real-time. Actions such as ‘press the trigger and your character will shoot a gun’ and ‘press the button and your character will swing their sword’ can now be easily expressed without going through a command system. “This is not an argument of what is good or bad, but there is a difference based on the player’s preferences and age. Furthermore, there is a big difference between a command system and a turn-based system, and these are often conflated, but are two different concepts.

And thats why there shit now

I perfer turned based

Let's hope the new generation picks it up, I know I'll be there day one. I can't miss out on Final Fantasy.

It can stay a PS timed exclusive forever imo - turned based combat is king

As long as the story happens within the game and not off screen or in a movie, mini games and so on..

Lame

Battle royale lol

Love turn based games but action games feel amazing to control so I’m fine with either direction FF takes.

Good because mostly all jrpgs are turn based . It’s refreshing for a jrpg franchise like final fantasy to do something different

Ah Square Enix is still struggling to understand that a turn based game saved the company and everytime they make a turn based game it sells really well, which seems to shock them even though that's what they are known for in the public eye.

Is this a joke from YoshiP? Your game is based on DMCV gameplay which is barely sold 5 million copies which is low selling for FF game

Dragon Quest XII better not do this.

Yuck

When you forget what made Final Fantasy series great and not just Mash buttons to proceed...thank the gods for SEGA.

Because pokemon is really struggling...

We got so many turn based rpgs so I'm ok with that.

“Younger generations” ? This is a rated M game !! So they took out an essential feature that veterans would appreciate…to appease to kids… ?

Ok...But the game is rated Mature

Mega Tera giga W Give this producer a fucking medal

They should also ditch this obsessive Euro Midevil setting for their RPGs😑
