Turn based Vs realtime RPG which is better

Among Rpg available I see many of them r turn based.  I personally dont like the RPG where we r not able to directly hit the enemy. I personally feel 'oblivion' to be the best RPG in years. But lost odyssey being a turn based still attracts me.

What do u think what will be a better in terms of gameplay  turn based or direct hit.

I prefer the realtime like oblivion the only turn based one I liked was FFVII which you could do with two players. Thats the only one.

I didn't know Lost oddessy was turn based but now  you have told me I'm not getting that one

I like both personally. Both of them have different strenghts, and limitations.

 Like how i think it's usually easier to increase the intensity of major attacks in  turn based battles.

i like both

i hope turn-based doesn't die out

hopefully blue dragon will keep it in

why only have just one if we can have both

IMO turn based are true RPG's, they are more like the original card games. Realtime is nothing more than a adventure game.

Lost Oddysey is turn based? Major letdown, now you no longer can call it a Oblivion beater. Turnbased is so boring, I played FF once for an hour and that's enough turn based for a long time. Only turnbased games I can appreciate are Worms and Advance Wars.Jelle87

Well it's made by Mistwalker. Did you think they would make a WRPG? What makes you say that you can no longer call it an Oblivion beater? That it's turned based doesn't change the fact that it might be better than Oblivion. You have the right to say that you think that turn based RPG's are boring.Earlier i said that i like both, but that doesn't change the fact that 4 of the 5 best games i have ever played are turn based. (all of them are FF's)

i like both s tyles of gameplay... i liked the way FF was setup and i like the way Oblivion is set up. There are new types of RPGs now like Huxley and Mass Effect that turn based may eventually die out... kinda hope that doesnt happen since that in my opinion is a true RPG.

PS: to the mods of this site: why does the thing need to do this "****" to the word "s tyles"???? whats so bad about that word?

I like both Turn based and real time.

both have their place.  gotta have variety.

Morrowind and Oblivion were awesome games.  so were turn based RGPS such as Chrono Trigger, FF6 (FF3 on snes) and FF7.

turned based for sure

most people that only like real time are under 15 this is FACT there are some exceptions thou. RPGS started out as turned based and most JRPGs have stayed turned base, WRPGS have become more like adventure games with rpg elements added to appeal to younger less educated people.
