What Are Some Engaging Turn-Based Games for Impatient Players?

-

I’m not really a fan of turn-based games because I often get bored waiting for turns and attack animations. However, I know that many of these games have great stories, and I hate missing out. I’ve found a few that I could get into: “Legend of Dragoon,” which kept me engaged with its addition system, and “Persona 5,” thanks to its flashy and fast-paced combat. I also enjoyed “Undertale” a lot. I’ve heard about a new game, “Clair Obscur: Expedition 33,” that seems promising because it has timed hits like LoD. What other turn-based games would you recommend that might appeal to someone like me?

“Baldur’s Gate 3” totally hooked me, even as someone who usually avoids turn-based games. The combat flows well, and the positioning aspect makes it much more engaging compared to typical setups. It’s like playing chess but with role-playing twist!

HeroicWarrior42 -

I agree! The strategy of positioning adds a lot to the experience. It’s not just about attacking; there’s so much more depth in deciding how to approach each battle.

FlareKnight77 -

For sure! They should add a fast forward option, though. Sometimes it can take ages when too many enemies are on screen.

UniqueQuestMaster -

“Yakuza: Like a Dragon” is another great title! It’s turn-based, but you have so many different actions and reactions during your turn, plus the side quests keep the game lively and fun!

CrazyStreetFighter -

So true! The humor and side activities really charm you when you’re not in combat.

You should definitely check out “Final Fantasy X.” The turn-based system here feels dynamic, especially without the active time battle system. Plus, in “Final Fantasy X-2,” the combat is even faster as regular attacks happen simultaneously!

MagicPixel84 -

That’s a classic! The pacing definitely keeps it more fluid than many other turn-based games.

RetroRogue99 -

Agreed! I think the whole series is worth exploring if you enjoyed FFX.
