Final Fantasy 12 wasnt turn based either... FF13 etc.. soo...

FF12 played almost like a MMO

Well.. Gambits in FF12... paradigms in FF13, one player character in FF13-3... soo... well..

and still no argumentation at all why a MMORPG cant have a slow paced combat system. Just because you know the "fast" global cooldown combat system of WoW (and hundreds of MMO's copied that) doesnt mean that every MMO must have a combat system like that.

i loved the old chaos thrust and doomspike animation of lancer it felt so intense:

massive, direct damage (multiple hits) instead of a DoT. plus they did much more damage. because those skills werent somethin that you spam like in ARR or WoW.. its like in Final Fantasy that these skills are "special attacks".... the tp had to be built up in order to perform them.

in contrast to the basic attack.
so in my opinion it was much more FF alike what the combat pace and system was.. that what we have now (just the limit break system is one tribute to FF)
