If they ever make an active pause battle game again I'll be interested. I can't stand these straight up action games that don't even let you control your party.
12 was the last one I liked, but even that was pushing it just because of the battle system, which I hated at first cuz it felt like a MMO but ended up loving because of gambits.
If you want a turn based RPG, OctoPath Traveler 2 is a really excellent option.
I have the first one. I've never gotten through it.
The style is great and all, but I want a modern RPG that has a party turn based system.
Sea of Stars, which just came out, is also great
Baldur's Gate 3 is a turn based RPG and it is quite good.
I might get it when it goes on sale.
We're talking about jrpgs.
Oh, are we? My bad. Baldur's Gate 3 fits "a modern RPG that has a party turn based system", so I thought it was a good rec.
Yup. Final Fantasy is a jrpg. The battle systems are completely different than western RPGs.
Final Fantasy did start out as basically a Japanese DnD, but they changed so much it's a completely different style. Also see Crono Trigger, And well... any RPG from Japan lol
Dragon quest, turn based, also by square enix.
