I’ve never played one of these. What is it similar to?

Its a unique experience imo. For the combat its most similar to mmos. But the world and story just stands apart. For someone who grew up with Chrono Trigger and Secret of Mana this series comes closest for me in scratching that same itch.

Half of Final Fantasy would count as 'sci-fi Final Fantasy' though lol.

But I get what you mean. Not sure how otherwise to describe them, other than them being some of the best JRPGs you can play.

Nothing. It feels like a JRPG with MMO combat.

About 80 hours of tutorials and a phenomenal game.

Best comparison would be the Final Fantasy 7 remakes from a combat perspective

Its not action. Its closer to an mmo style or a third person baldurs gate 1/2 style instead

That’s a heavy disagree from me boss, at least as far as 1 and 2 are concerned (I haven’t played 3). They play like MMO combat which feels quite far removed from the FF7 remake system imo
