PS2 Final Fantasys Q

[The MilkMan]

Anybody give me input on the FF series that are NOT turn based? Or are they all like that?

No internet versions please.

[Reaperman]

it depends...

if you talk to turn based fans, ff's don't even seem really turn based even in 'wait mode.' Bothers me...

 

but ff12 is kind of a decent mix. You pause it a lot to issue commands, but everybody is still on their own timer and attacks on their own if you do nothing. are you looking for pure button-mashing action, or just a real-time battle, or what?

They only attack on their own if you have gambits set for them, otherwise they do nothing.

 

As for Non-Turn-Based Final Fantasy's... There are none?

[Tempest]

All the main Final Fantasy games are turn based, but some of the spin offs are more action based. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles for the GC, Dirge of Cerberus for the PS2, and the new PSP FFVII title (Crisis Core?) are all action based.

The Final Fantasy Adventure is also action based. Can you deal with the Game Boy's "black and white", though?

Thanks for the tips everyone. If any others you think of....

It was remade for GBA as "Sword of Mana" - unfortunately, the soundtrack wasn't updated to match the new visuals.
