Action vs Turn based

so which of these rpg types is your favorite?

[pico]

Action!!!
turn bassed is kinda lame

im kind of torn between the two... i mean i love a good action rpg... but i cant let go of the great turn based ones like FInal Fantasy...

well, depends how turn based it is...if its like FF then action...but BGII is fast paced turn based game and i like that alot!

im stuck on a fence but when i started playing morrowind I kinda like action better.

i cant say i have a preference... it all depends on how the game is set up with story and character backgrounds..... to me all RPG's are fun regardless of their play style... they just need a great backstory and plot.

Action with a large amounts of people fighting free for all

[SamWilson]

yeah like Drakengard ^_^

non stop slaughterage is fun

well... based on what ive done, action = better gameplay, turn = better story NOT always true but usually in what ive seen

I'm an avid reader, so I guess I'd really prefer turn based because I agree, the story tends to be alot better in turn based games. But there have been a couple of action ones that have had good stories.

I prefer action games but its not that I don't like turn based. I just haven't played many turned based games. Its been a long while since I played any turned based games...any great ones out?

i'm with him. I guess it's all how the gameplay works.

Me too. And both of them have advantages.

turn based- you can have more time to decide what you're going to do
action- you can dodge attacks and wack away at any time!
