My next game i start will be Star Ocean First Departure R. And if i finsih that game fast enough i probably play either Persona 4 Golden or a rerun of Nier Replicant....

Soon we reach 2024 and i wish you the best for the new year. I think there are some interresting game annoynced for 2024. So what jrpg’s, regardless of old or new, do you plan to play?

What’s the most recent JRPG you played that really amazed you? Something that would end up in your top 10, or otherwise blew you away.

In my childhood i have mostly played Final Fantasy and Kingdom Herts games. So i’m still lacking in some knowledge about older games. What retro games would you recommend or are must plays in your opinion?...

I pull up tracks from a few soundtracks from time to time. I do really like the common fan favorites: Nier Gestalt/Replicant, Persona 5, Chrono Cross....

I read currently a lot about monster catching/raising games. Next week is Pokemon day with new announcements, we get new Tem Tem content and there is a hype game we probably all have heared from. Monster farming, fight and hunting is not new for jrpg’s. With Pokemon and Dragon Quest, there are two franchises with a long...

What’s for you the best turn based battle system?...

November is one of the two months that probably sells the most games. Do you buy something new or play an old game that probably got released in november?

I think most of us play JRPG’s only once, often for the story as well. But are there games for you you already have played a few times and could start that any time?...

I’ve been playing Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, and the Suikoden vibe is completely there. I loved that game world, its mythos, the soft connections between the games. It contributed to the inspirational vibe, too....

I already read, that people think 2023 was not the stronges year for this genre. But maybe you have still something that surprises you in a positive way or you play and older game again?

Alternatively you can also use this thread to rant or whatever.

Seem a lot of you think it’s nice that the Baldurs Gate dev took inspiration from a jrpg. Did the dev choose the correct game with Final Fantasy VII? What are your favorite chracters, character you really like or maybe an well written enemy that you hate?

Title, wanted to see who else showed up here cause of the blackout. And also to test out how things work since there ain't much of the hobby subs moving here (yet, hopefully)

Sales of Final Fantasy 16 did not meet Square Enix's high expectations, said president Takashi Kiryu. Last week the com…

I know everyone has that one RPG they fell in love with that will always have a special place for them....

In an interview with IGN, Persona 3 Reload producer Ryota Niitsuma and chief director Kazuhisa Wada confirmed that Persona 3 Reload only features content present in the original release of Persona 3.

Just do it already!

A half month ago i ask, what’s the Best turn baesd battle system. While turn based battle system are very typical for rpg’s, action system could be used in different franchises. So the best action battle system is probably not part of a jrpg. But i think there are some action system, that are a bit more creative than these...

December is probably the month the most jrpg franchises have their beginning, at least a lot. Do you maybe choose to play one of those?

The best Final Fantasy games have influenced countless titles over the years and have also left an indelible mark on many of those who played them.
