Given the current state of the RPG genre, any developer who makes a party-based RPG in a fantasy setting and using RTwP combat will automatically get my support and my money (at full price).
But I don't love RTWP at all. Even in the classic RTWP games I played and enjoyed, that was more an acceptable compromise than an ideal solution for me.
Sure. And this is exactly how I feel about TB combat. But when people like you say this about RTwP combat, it's considered a very reasonable thing to say, whereas when people like me say it about TB combat the reaction from the TB fans is something like: "How dare you say that! You don't know anything. You're a troll!"
As a TB fan, you have a TON of RPGs to play these days. But as a RTwP RPG fan, I don't. So that's why I will buy and play any RTwP cRPG that gets made. If a game is perfect in every other way, but is TB, the highest possible score I will give such a game is 7/10. So it is pretty easy for a RTwP RPG to get a high score from me.
