Turn-based

I'm finally getting used to this blog, so I'll start with something easy...

I feel that things are changing, with the new Dragon Quest being an action RPG. (Though I'm pretty excited for that...) But if that happens, I worry that turn-based RPGs will disappear.

So I've decided! Etrian Odyssey will be the last great turn-based RPG! ...Or at least, that's what I tell myself.

Shogi, Go, and other games where you have to think ahead and plan strategy are fun to me, so it would be a shame if they disappeared.
