It’s not like Square Enix doesn’t know how to make good turn-based games. They’ve been hitting it out of the park with their smaller budget projects like Bravely Default and Octopath Traveler. So I don’t know why they’ve rejected it for FF, imagine what they could do with a big budget title if they tried.
I joke about how halfway through development, someone at Square Enix must’ve realized that Bravely Default was actually a good game, and thus too good for the FF name. So instead they had to throw darts at an English dictionary to rebrand it.
F-Zero GX, hands down. Nothing else is even close.
