The popularity of "Light and Shadow: Expedition No. 33" has sparked a fierce discussion on social media about the future direction of the "Final Fantasy" series.

Some players believe that Square Enix's decision to turn the series into action in order to attract mainstream players has caused irreversible damage to this classic IP.They pointed out that Light and Shadow: Expedition No. 33 proved that the turn-based combat system is still full of vitality with its excellent media ratings and millions of sales.

But it is worth noting that Square Enix has never publicly criticized the turn-based system, although company executives have repeatedly explained the decision to move towards action.For example, during the promotion of Final Fantasy 16, producer Naoki Yoshida once told Famitsu that young players "may not understand the charm of selecting commands in the game.""Final Fantasy 7 Remake" chooses a hybrid system that combines character action and strategic instructions, retaining the strategic nature of the original work in the modern combat mechanism.

Square Enix has not completely abandoned the turn-based system, and the "Traveler" and "Dragon Quest" series still use these tried-and-tested mechanisms and are unlikely to change in the short term.Other manufacturers' best-selling works such as Mihayou's "Cangdao: Star Dome" and Falcom's "Trail" series are still using turn-based combat.

Although "Light and Shadow: Expedition No. 33" does confirm the lasting charm of turn-based gameplay, this classic mechanism has never really left the game stage.It’s obvious that fans have strong expectations for Square Enix to return to the Final Fantasy series’ origins and to adopt turn-based combat again.
