Ever feel like turn-based battles are making a comeback? You're not alone. The director of the upcoming Final Fantasy Resonance thinks so too, and he's on a mission to bring back that classic JRPG magic.
In a recent chat, director Hiroto Furuya shared his thoughts on why turn-based RPGs are seeing a resurgence. "I think there is something to note about the appeal of classic RPGs," he said, hinting that modern games might be missing that certain something that made older titles so beloved.
Furuya's comments come as Final Fantasy Resonance gears up to capture the hearts of both old-school fans and newcomers. He wants to bottle that nostalgic feeling—think epic quests, strategic combat, and unforgettable stories—and serve it up with a fresh twist.
It's not just about nostalgia though. The gaming world has seen a wave of turn-based hits lately, from indie darlings to big-budget revivals. Fans are craving deeper strategy and a slower burn, a break from the constant action of real-time combat. Furuya seems to be riding that wave, aiming to honor the classics while pushing the genre forward.
Final Fantasy Resonance promises to be a love letter to the golden age of JRPGs, but with modern polish. If you're tired of twitchy gameplay and want to settle into a good old-fashioned turn-based battle, this might be your next obsession.
