Even though a few of my favorite games are RtwP, I pretty much agree. By and large it’s just not good. Pillars of Eternity taught me that. I thought I really wanted more classic Infinity Engine style games, but now, not so much.
The constant pausing and unpausing and immediate pausing really becomes tedious for me.
I actually love FF7Remake for making a RtwP action RPG work. I think that is inspired and I hope more games copy the formula. They cracked the nut BioWare has been grinding down it’s teeth on for years.
