This is like asking who is to date better: blondes or brunets? Its all personal taste so unless we all agree on one person who will decide what is best for us (and we going to believe him without doubting), that question (and many others) will never be answered.

But I can tell you what I like better comparing to the other, brunets – final answer

While I enjoy every kind of (well made) battle I prefer turn-based because only there you can use advanced tactics - I mean really develope a good Strategy and use it. TB gives the game more Depth.

At my age, I need TB. My reflexes and reactions are nowhere near good enough for Real Time!!

I like all of them equaly. It depends what mood I am in.

I have played amazing games from each battle system, so neither is realy better than the other.

Did somebody call my name? I hereby declare that turn-based is better. Like Corwin, I'm slow of hand and slower of mind...

I personally like Real Time Twitch-based battles. Particularly like those in Gothic, not like those in Diablo. But I still like TB battles too, so I'm not extremely partial to one or the other.

I like both systems as long as they're well done.

realtime for me, games like Zelda or Gothic are better then games like FF or Silent Storm.
