I have a bad itch for a good RPG and none of the games I've found on Steam or GOG seem to scratch them. Basically I want to recapture the magic and sense of discovery I felt while playing Super Mario RPG on Super Nintendo when I was a kid. It should have: -fun, interesting characters that you really get attached to. -An engaging storyline that is not too convoluted -Nothing too gimmicky when it comes to the battle system. Innovative is okay, but if it's just taking turns and plinking away I'm ok with it. -a top down third person perspective -I'm flexible on graphics but I'd prefer something 32bit or less Any RPGs like that floating around for PC? (no console games pls). Games I have already tried and still left me feeling hollow: Bastion Transistor Hyper Light Drifter Dungeon of the Endless *** The last RPG I played which made me feel genuine joy was Undertale, but I'm starting to come down off the Undertale high and I need a new game to stop me from doing something desperate like becoming part of the fandom. Pls help, goons. *** Gamesearch Update! Thank you to everyone who gave me suggestions! I think I have a lot to work with now. The ones I'm looking at now are: Chrono Trigger Final Fantasy IX Ultima VII Applewhite fucked around with this message at 15:03 on Oct 2, 2016 |

Planescape: Torment. Battle design is not good but everything else is fantastic.

The RPG-30 is pretty neat, it fires a smaller munition first that is designed to trigger active protection and allow the main warhead to go through.

If you want something tongue-in-cheek but with enough substance to support the fluff, there's Cthulhu Saves the World.

Also a fair chunk of the Final Fantasy series, but mostly what you want is Chrono Trigger.

But actually the Final Fantasy 9 port is on Steam. Buy it immediately. I think you'll really like it.

Dragon Age was a perfect RPG, but a question that interests me more in the same vein is what is the most highly recommended RPG by older brothers? Probably a PS1 Suikoden game.
