Seems like a goldmine of content for them to work on for the next decade+. Plenty of people will never experience these worlds or stories due to the turn-based combat, so giving them the Remake treatment could be the only way an audience ever finds them.

I would like to see FF8 remade next. It's the next logical choice becauase 8 comes after 7 and it's a solid world to leave the FF7 rut for.

The rest could be good, too, but FF8 would probably be the easiest to pull off successfully.

For me it's very much turn based combat. I hate turn based combat and I've found very few exceptions to that rule.

I'm down to play games of all ages... As long as they aren't specifically that type of turn based combat.

Turn based strategy? Great! Turn based card game? Epic! Turn based combat? I'm bored out of my mind

Out of curiosity, which games with TBC have you played? I understand that the most common problem with them is that it's just a dumb numbers game, bigger number wins, which also means lots of grinding

I've attempted pokemon many times because it's constantly recommended. I've tried a few of the turn based final fantasy games. Quite a few indie games. Some persona was attempted at some point...

The only exception to the rule is Dragon Quest and I have no idea why but that's been consistently the only turn based games I can play for more than a few hours without uninstalling. I've only managed to finish one of them but either way that's still pretty good for me for this genre.
