Because they don't want to charge the 8 people who would buy a turn-based gsme in 2019, er... 2020, er... 2045 a hundred million dollars apiece in order to break even.
Turned based games dont sell anymore!
Meanwhile DQXI sold 2 million copies in 2 days
Persona 5 is like the most revered jrpg this generation
Only 2 to break top 10 were action rpg's. Only other rpg to make the list is pokemon, but pokemon is a goddamn juggernaut. Traditional rpg's aren't cool anymore on consoles. Fuck turn based combat outside of handheld gaming tbh.
you think ff7 remake wouldn't still sell millions if it were turn based? lol. ---
