ive never played final fantasy before but i was wondering is the combat turn based? like in lotr 3rd age. does it matter if it is? i hate turn based games in rpgs it ruined 3rd age and i havent got another turn based game yet.because i was wondering if i should get it when it comes out
well in the early ps1 Final Fantasy and early ps2 Final fantasy X are turn based combat, but the experience of Final fantasy VII to X could not be enjoyable if it werent for the turn based combat, story, graphics and music. You need to play at least Final Fantasy X because is one of the best games of final fantasy, but for me personally final fantasy 8 is the best. Well Final Fantasy XII is not turn based combat is like a new action based combat system, you need to play it because the new final fantasy Games for the ps3 are gonna be an improvement of the ffXII combat system
To directly answer your question: all Final Fantasy up to X are turn based (not saying that's a bad thing). I don't know about XI, never played it. Final Fantasy XII(the most recent)wasn't turned based (not saying that's a better thing). Of the three Final Fantasy games I actually had a chance to play, I liked.
Well first of all the 3rd age was a poor game *cough*EA*cough*, final fantasy however are great games and require a small amount of tactical skill where as 3rd age just required you to level up a hell of alot before you got to helms deep, all in all the 3rd age is one of the worst games you can use to base your desision on turn based games and should never be compared to final fantasy you should go out and buy either final fantasy 7,9 or 10 however since this is your first ff go with 7 or 10 as 9 is an aquired taste which some people didn't like.
