Only for spinoffs. Not enough normies enjoy turn based combat these days.
Design comes first. ATB won't help if your game is a bunch of empty space or shitty hallways where story elements only come up as they become relevant. The design of 5-9, where subplots intermingle and setting matters, is far more important.
I JUST WANT FF 1 TO 9 REMAKE GODDAMMIT
ESPECIALLY 6 AND 8
FUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKKKKK
The paradox is that 5, 6, 8 And 9 would benefit the most, but they would be the least likely to turn out right. The devs would need to understand exactly what works about their systems and what doesn't while faithfully replicating the art style and choreographing every scene in real 3D, translating all meta and UI jokes skillfully.
It's never going to happen. They can't even get 7 right.
Why do you like ATB?
No. FF is dead. Go play Xenoblade instead.
This. There's a problem when I care more about Esthar than Bevelle, Rabanastre, Cocoon and Insomnia combined, much less any other location post-9. Burmecia is still poignant to this day and Midgar still hasn't been topped.
remakes are garbage. FF7 is going to be a shit show
Xeno series also died after Chronicles 1
Dumbed-down from NES/SNES but not quite as dumbed-down as the later corridor simulators or hold O to awesome games?
FF1, 2 and 4 all got superior remakes.
It’s possible, sure. Will they try? Fuck no
FF is dead besides XIV. Even if they do try and make XVI it’ll be 10+ years before they make anything. Get ready for years of remakes and spinoffs no one asked for
The PS1 game's aren't any dumber than 4 or 6. 5 was an outlier.
>XIV
>Alive
They have no budget. They can't even make HD textures.
Honestly I don't think a modern ff with turn based or at would be very good
More popular than WoW
Which doesn't mean shit when Square redistributes the funds into failures like XV and 7R. It's about as alive as fucking Mabinogi. The support and content creation is pathetic.

There are MANY things PS1 FFs do better than modern ones. You chose the only one that's not among them.
No.
FF is doomed to be a constantly changing series, they're always going to try something new and take a dozen risks and its always going to be a 50/50 on whether it comes out good or bad.
Give me weird monster party members again. Have someone who isn't Tetsuya Nomura on character design again. Do weird shit again.
>and its always going to be a 50/50 on whether it comes out good or bad.
>Every single numbered game since 2001 has been mediocre at best.
They did 10 games in a row as regular ass RPGs. Maybe they can stop smelling their own assholes and try that again.
X was great, fuck you.
Final Fantasy was never good.
>X
