Pros & Considerations
Battles
Real-time movement, timing and ability use make execution and positioning part of every encounter
Progression
Equipment, skills or party systems provide persistent build choices between encounters
◇Consider
Combat density: Large crowds still favour repeated area attacks and can feel less precise than a dedicated character-action RPG.
