I mean, they're not wrong. It is unpopular as clearly shown by the vast majority of games being real time and most turn based games being niche as fuck. It was used back in the day to emulate DnD and because real time combat was way harder to do. The only reason devs still do it is for nostalgia. Larian are the only ones doing anything new with these. Their games have a ton more interactiviety and tactics you can do using the environment and tools as opposed to everyone just standing in a circle and whacking each other. If you're not going to utilize the slower pace to make a game that actually uses diverse tactics, you might as well just not.
