As with almost anything - if it's implemented correctly, it works great.
I'm currently in the middle of Pillars of Eternity and the turn based combat here is very good. Especially since you can speed it up (as you can do with the whole game).
But I was raised on games like Baldurs Gate and Icewind Dale, never got to that "crazy good, but still crazy" level some people get to, but I'm doing ok. And just today I was talking to a friend that had close to zero experience with games like this - X-com 2 was her first tactical game, and she's 37 And as it turned out, she's not that big a fan of the combat system and all that micromanagement.
