Please let Pillars Of Eternity's surprise turn-based mode spark a wave of turn-based updates for all other games
Why is turn-based so popular? I understand everyone has different preferences, but the headline makes it sound like the author wants all games to be turn-based.
It's one reason why I don't like 4x games, tactical RPGs, and even Pokemon. I'd much rather have real-time combat and all the difficulties that presents.
There are a lot of people who want the challenge and skill expression of a game decoupled from reaction time.
I personally enjoy real time or real time with pause more than turn based. Some turn based games are great but turn based games frequently feel like converted boardgames.
But I like boardgames. Turn based games are like a really complex boardgame with all the admin handled for you.
