ok fine maybe persona 4 or Disgaea
but fuck you if you say rogue galaxy is a worthwhile game
Suikoden games are legit. Final fantasy XII of course. Persona 4 if you care about the story more than gameplay. I forgot the rest as I'm not looking at my game collection.
Shin Megami Tensei III Nocturne.
Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2.
FFX-2 is also quite good if you can stomach everything outside of the gameplay.

Yeah, sorry, I got caught up in tossing out games and forgot the turn-based requirement at some point.
It's neat how games like FFXII or Shenmue with their focus on texture map quality can still hold up today.

Yeah it is you still wait for a bar to feel up to do an action,if it it wasn't you could do any action at any time

By the strictest sense of the term no FF games are turn based bc attacks are based on timers rather than incremental turns

BoF: Dragon Quarter
Mana Khemia
Grandia 2
Shadow Hearts 1 and 2

1-3 and 10 are straight up turn based, no timers.

You forgot IV too.
ATB is only in the modern versions, it wasn't on SNES/PS.
FFV originally introduced it.
