Chrono Trigger is the perfect JRPG. That's literally what it's called, "Perfect Game 1995," Chrono Trigger is just the unofficial title. really, the fact you haven't played it already basically makes you a criminal

There's a popular one called "The Legends of Heroes: Sky of Steel" or something like that.

The XP system is garbage. It sucks. All the ways you improve and equip your character outside of leveling up are always more enjoyable. Leveling up sucks. Grinding sucks. Spending hours making a number go higher is stupid. Link to the Past didn't need grinding. Every game today uses it, though, rpg or not.

Dial-a-Dog posted:All over it, gonna be weird adjusting to the new translation. I was reading some wiki articles about it earlier when I got interested again, and had no idea Knights of the Northern Sky was the real translation for Hokuten Knights The new translation is really good. People complain about it missing fan favorite lines but I don't give a poo poo because now the game is intelligible and actually well written.

If you're going to install an snes emulator for Chrono Trigger, make sure you get Tales of Phantasia, my second favorite time traveling RPG.

Spending hours making a number go higher is stupid. Exactly, its a game that rewards skill rather than time invested, a proto-dark souls if you will. Now op, I know you may be tempted to go the Zelda 2 route if you get in more of a side-scrolling rpg mood, but thats a classic mistake; what you actually want is my second favorite rpg: Super Metroid.

I legitimately thought FFX was the pinnacle of the series, lovely forced laughing scene aside. The new battle system ruled, and the plot was convoluted but eventually made sense to the point where I was like "Oh, Tidus disappeared into dust, that makes sense" at the end. From what I understand FFX-2 ruined all of that

Final Fantasy Tactics also has a great soundtrack https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPGBxgk6rJE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjwA8VeMJqA It's pretty much the perfect game, because you can recruit Cloud.

um JRPGs and especially Super Mario RPG, place a fairly heavy emphasis on smooth and fun combat Infinity Engine games and especially Planescape:Torment, does not.

AugmentedVision posted:um Actually, PS:T had the best combat engine of all the IE games. Just use chromatic orb instead of magic arrow, also it's impossible to gimp any of the characters while levelling up because they all basically turn into plane shaping deities by the end. Heck, you don't even need to fight to win the last battle so who cares

GastonEatTheEggs posted:The combat is sloppy but it's easy and the animations are cool. Well yeah, but the combat was sloppy in the BG games, but also difficult and devoid of cool animations. Plus you could easily turn your Bhaalspawn god character into a barely functional loser. AFAIK it's impossible to gimp the nameless one

Twerkteam Pizza posted:Bad idea. Square rereleases on steam are garbo. I got FF7 and I literally can't do poo poo unless I have a controller and do some stupid EULA poo poo The ipad port is shockingly good, they integrated the touch controls really well and put some cheats right in there in case you just want to enjoy the game without grinding for a hundred hours. Sometimes I like to get uncomfortably stoned and then just lay in bed and look at all the cool monsters and buildings and stuff. Highly recommended if you have a tablet that will run it, it aged way better than 7 did and feels like a cool illustrated children's book that you can play with in that format. OP quit being a baby and get Planescape. It's the best rpg anyone ever bothered to make. I don't even know where to begin describing the world it takes place in, it's like some actually smart dungeon master did a bunch of brain drugs and made a magical realism campaign, but that doesn't do it justice. The plot revolves around a question (what can change the nature of a man?), and whatever answer you believe is going to be as valid as any other. Playing it a second time years later, you'll find you might have changed your answer, which isn't an experience I've had with any other game.
