Im pretty sure they will not deviate from the turn based combat but instead evolve it to something more fast pace for todays audience. However if anyone here has played Crisis Core for the PSP (ff7 prequel) then you will know that a action based game in the ff7 universe is still something pretty fun. Either way i thin SE knows the gold mine the are sitting on and will treat it accordingly... lets just hope it don't take them 10 years to figure out how to do that lol.
