I'll start with a hidden gem.
Sprite work is terrible, game is incredibly sluggish to start and even when it does it doesn't get that much better, the moving and positioning is fun until you realize that it doesn't work on any important fight which makes the fairy bitch completely useless, the time travel mechanic is complete ass and switching timelines to get help from the other timeline often doesn't make any sense at all.
You first, OP.

I recently started playing this, its pretty good. I like how you often have to decide if you want to equip the item with the better stats or the more useful ability.
>>284210530
OP, do you even know what "hidden gem" means?
I'll post one for your consideration. It's amazing. Don't be a fuck, go give it a try.
>>284212195
Yeah, hidden gem thread. If you want to talk about The 2 hour Order, How much halo is for kiddies, how pc is le mustard race etc. you are free to leave.4/10 made me reply
This game was a unique experience. Mixing some STG mechanics with an RPG + have some real time elements there = perfect.
Also the fact that your character could permadie was great.

Origins is one of my favorite games ever.

That's a pretty nice looking game for the NES.
>>284213376
2 is actually a prequel, so start go ahead a start with it.
>>284213532
No, not really.
>>284212602
That game looks awesome. I just listened to some of the soundtrack and watched the opening cut scene thing.
>>284210947
>fairy bitch
You meant Aht? Pretty sure her traps work on every single boss except the final boss because there's no space to put them. And even then she has other skills she can use. Not optimal but not "completely useless".
As for everything else, pull the stick out of your ass.
>>284211097
>>284211326
For a game centered around time travel, there are almost no plot holes. Once you do a stage in a sidequest, you don't need to go back and do that step ever again, since "True History" reads as you having done that along the way.
Almost all of the characters get fleshed out, with the exception of maybe one, and sidequests are used to get characters extra skills.
Gameplay is very easy to get into, but also requires a lot of thought. Switching turns around leaves your character(s) vulnerable but also potentially sets you up for huge chain attacks, which gives a solid tradeoff. 99% of the bosses can be afflicted by poison, so buy a lot of poison wings.
>>284213470

Theres like 2 or 3 bosses where her traps don't work, but even without them she is still one of the best party members for building up combos.

Everybody always jumps down this game's throat with the "muh escapism" and the legit complaints about the law system, but god damn were the character progression mechanics great. I loved this game with a passion.

>>284216396
Seems like it. Then again we'd have a very short thread on our hands if only god tier JRPGS were allowed

Shit, forgot pic
>>284216396
like /v/ could even come to a consensus on what a god tier game is anyway.
>>284216626
I can only give it 7/10 at most because of the combat
>>284216967
Is it worth playing the first game beforehand?
>>284216626
We specified JRPGs because there are no good WRPGs.
>>284216967
Here's your reply. 8/10.
>>284211352
i really really like this game, but good lord it isn't even close to being god-tier. it's pretty mediocre overall, except that soundtrack
>>284217192
Yes. Mostly because the first one is incredibly short
>>284217415
It at the very least a legitimate opinion. ATL2 is great
>>284217131
>Lost Odyssey
>God tier
Not even close. Lost Odyssey was the biggest case of "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINKING" in any RPG ever.
Lost Odysseys story is comically bad. Even by JRPG standards it's below shit like FF8s "we grew up together but forgot".
But the puzzling thing is, the short stories in the game are absolutely fucking amazing. They are without a doubt some of the best (if not the best) writing in any video game ever. But they're just fucking short stories you can read and nothing else.
Why the fuck didn't the developers get the person who wrote those short stories to write the main story for Lost Odyssey? If they'd have done that, the game would have been the best JRPG ever.
>>284217472
the final boss theme made up for all of the game shortcomings
ive never jizzed so much to a music track in my life but holy shit that was fucking incredible
>>284217859
I thought the main story was pretty forgettable, but to me the worst offender was the fucking slow as shit combat.
I think the only game I've ever played with slower combat is Xenosaga.
i've never heard anyone talk about this game at all, it's probably one of the best ds rpgs ever made.
Shame it's only the saiyan saga, i'd love a whole series of these games that covers all the sagas
>>284218070
The combat wasn't amazing, but it wasn't bad either. Having that circle you had to press at the right time got annoying though.
But seriously, the developers went out of their way to hire an award winning, world famous writer to write for them. Then all they had him do was write a collection of short stories. The fuck where they thinking when they decided this?
>>284218070
The combat, and more importantly the load times before every battle were what killed it for me. The game had load times worse than most PS1 rpgs.
>>284212164
I'll fucking buy it from you for 20 bucks if you hate is so much
>>284212052
Grandia was a spiritual successor to Lunar games and I would rather recommend those instead.
>>284212052
First disc was amazing. Second disc sucked. Not only did the story go from "I want to adventure!" to "an ancient evil has awoken", but the 2nd disc just turned into a fucking chore to play. Dungeons were massive and full of monsters that took ages to kill.
Even though it had a combat system which does not deserve the name, I still love Gothic I and II
>>284211593
I can never categorize Vagrant Story. It sure as fuck ain't a straight up JRPG, that's for sure.
>>284211673
SC translation never. Fuck that asshole who is still getting paid for not doing any work, because he has depression. Ooooh I have depression so I can't be motivated to translate this game, TOO BAD MOTHER FUCKER YOUR BEING PAID TO DO IT, GET OFF YOUR LAZY ASS AND FINISH THE FUCKING JOB YOUR ALREADY A YEAR LATE!
>>284211548
Brilliant game. But that starting chapter and the sheer effort it takes to recruit characters made it a serious pain in the ass to play.
The starting chapter just seemed to take hours and wasn't fun because you had little control (and it was a fucking escort mission).
Recruiting characters was a pain because they had daily routines, and you'd have to sit around waiting for 20+ minutes to be able to talk to these characters (and skipping forwards was not an option due to it making certain characters missable, including the best characters in the game).
>>284210676
i want to get into tactics but theres so many different versions and remakes
which do i play?
>>284214158
battles are not the games strong point
the extra bosses instant kill you and everything else can easily be push/pull stacked and utterly destroyed

>>284219558
There's the original
War of the Lions (enhanced port of original)
Advance
Advance 2
You can skip the original
The stories get progressively worse, aesthetic and design get progressively worse, but the gameplay depth gets progressively better.
Just look up some videos of each one and choose the one you think you'll like the most.
>>284211548

>>284219393
I agree entirely. I tried to replay this game because I loved it but the starting chapter is garbage. You need to get all the way up to finishing those missions with your boss in the fighting guild before you get to do whatever the fuck you want. That's like 6 hours.

It's the only non-shit JRPG on nintendo systems since the SNES era, so nintendrones who only own nintendo systems, have hyped it up to extreme levels.
A similar thing happened to Golden Sun. A shallow 6/10 game at best was hailed as a masterpiece because there were no other JRPGs on the system.
>>284222270
Yep, same shit with Tales of Symphonia too.
>>284222270
It's not, even. There are better jrpgs on the wii.

>Golden sun is great,

Outright embarassing writing
Hilariously cliche' JRPG story
Zero difficulty
Shit pacing
Entirely linear
Puzzle-like obstacles minigames that would have worked better if it were a full-fledged puzzle game
Good "RPG" you've got there. No esploration, no good story to make up for the linearity, most basic menu gameplay. What exactly makes it good, other than being one of the few JRPGs on the GBA? Can you pinpoint what's good about it? Graphics? Cool. Everything else is mediocre at best.

Eh, I played it last year. Honestly don't get the hype. The story wasn't that good, the battle system was decent. The worst thing was how constrained you are as to where you can go at any time, and how annoying it was to replay segments because there weren't enough points in time you could jump to.

You kind of have to if you like the JRPG genre in general, I suppose it's a filtering process.
But GS's story is that sort of cliche' that is so cliche' it seems like someone ironically wrote it to make a parody of shitty JRPG stories. The dialogue quality greatly helps achieve this feeling.
>>284222007
The only good RPG on Wii and it's hard to find.
>>284210530

Agreed except I didn't think the sprite work was bad at all really.
>>284224136

That just means no meaningful choices ever because you either do it the wrong way and get some shitty text cutscene where you immediately start over, or you do it the right way and the game moves on.
Nothing cool about that, it was just shit.
>>284224403
Yeah GS's problem isn't so muc that the story sucks. Its the way it is presented. Every dialog section repeats what is said 2-3 times, and is horribly drawn out by all the soulless characters slowly making those "talking" noises accompanied by all the emoticon faces.
>>284224535

What's so good about Vagrant Story?
All I know is that it supposedly has some ties to FFXII (same writer or same universe? not sure) and that BD has this armor as a reference
I keep reading that it's super good but I've seen some gameplay once and it looked really clunky and frustrating
>>284225547
Instead of buying a dead game 12 times, which doesn't support developers, mod your PS2 and download it. It's cheap and easy as hell.
>>284225925
I can't get into it, i'm not very far, but i don't fully understand the mechanics and the in game tutorial is TL:DR. I really should read through it though
>>284225925
for me, it was the story, localization, and music - also the graphics.
The gameplay isn't bad at all, but it is a game where you kinda have to read up on external things to really grok the games mechanics which is kinda crappy but not the worst thing. The story is actually pretty good, and it can almost be seen as a fantasy metal gear solid.
>>284221230

Mostly the story & presentation. It is one of the better looking PS1 games by far.

xenosaga's a seriously hot mess, and your mileage will vary a lot. it has that quality of being comically overloaded with huge, century-spanning concepts and plots that you will either finding endearing or pretentious depending on your tastes. if you like xenogears-y shit with kooky biblical references and tons of cryptic name-dropping then you will probably be interested.
they do feel more fragmented as products than xenogears, though. music is sparse and environments are crude; gameplay varies from pretty good (3) to worst of all time (2). if you are a big enthusiast of the xenogears school of jrpg plotting, then they'll be flawed gems; if not, they will be total clusterfucks.
skip episode 2 (which sucks) if it gives you the gas to power through episode 3 (which is one of my favorites).
Is Fantasy Life any good? Worth the 45 bucks? I have a hard time playing RPGs these days though, shit sucks.
>>284222007
It's good. The voice acting is great, the art direction is great, the soundtrack is great, it has good emulation support and therefore looks great aswell. The gameplay is accessable and quickit gets old after a while but if you switch up characters its fine
The story itself is "okay", but the setting and the story progression is great. There are some cutscenes in the game but they're directed REALLY REALLY well, like, they are seriously enjoyable
I can understand people getting turned off from the "offline-mmo" style, people heavily overblow it on /v/ especially after Shulk got confirmed for smash, so many people who usually woudln't bother with a game like this try to get into it and get disappointed.
>>284226643
Exactly. That's why I asked if you knew where you were.
>>284225364
Xenosaga is a mess honestly. The first two games are a total chore. The third game is actually pretty great but I can't in good faith actually suggest playing through the other two games just for it, and the game is simply not worth playing if you haven't. You'll have no idea what is going on and no investment in the characters.
>>284219379
The translation is done and the game has been in QA testing.
>>284226376
I'd kill for a proper brawler with kid goku done by platinum.
forget that gba game.
>>284226709
Fantasy Life is only good if you have real life friends that also own the game. I'd suggest Rune Factory 4 instead.
>>284210530
Ogre Battle
Star Ocean 2

You know how Squaresoft/S-E ruins all their good games to pander to shitty audiences, BD included? Now picture Square in a situation of zero pandering and zero jewing, only a pure, genuine, unaltered vision from a director (who later got botched because he didn't do pandering shit and the game didn't market well to the hambeasts, which directly led to FUCKING VAAN AS MAIN CHARACTER FOR FFXII HOLY SHIT)
>>284226709
It can consume a lot of time if you find it entertaining at all, but it's incredibly bland imo. The combat, which is always a big portion of rpgs, is really underwhelming and shallow. The crafting system eventually just turns into a "press 3 buttons and auto-synth" thing and the quality of said craft is pretty fucking random at times.
I wouldn't recommend it for full price.
>>284226805
but why does this happen? it happens everywhere.
>>284222438
I really struggle with 2d RPGs, basically anything before the PS2 era. There are enough RPGs to choose from though until I get the patience for older titles
>>284213532
I couldn't stand how fucking boring this was and dropped it immediately.
No one has posted skies of arcadia yet?
Wow /v/ get some taste.

Hm, thanks. Duly noted.
I kind of hate how much companies are trying to force co-op in games these days. I don't have any fucking friends, at least none that play vidya.

>tfw I was raised on Dragon Warrior (Quest) starting at the tender age of 7
>>284222438
For me, thats only a problem for the early PS1 RPGs due to long, unskippable combat animation, and poor early 3D.
>>284227054
how about you read a thread before you post in it.
oh wait, I'm on /v/

This thread is terrible
>>284227369
chrono cross, duh.
>>284221814
It does LOOK like a clusterfuck, but it's not if you actually play it. There's a ton going on but it's not all introduced at once
>>284227683

FF8 is pretty entry tier but its also the absolute polarizing FF, some people hate it, and otherswith more refined tasteabsolutely love it.

>>284210530
this game has one of the best combat systems ever
also, ys seven and celceta are fantastic, albeit more button mashy.
>>284227653
I'm enjoying GT.
>>284218010
Indeed.
That part when it gets to the theme turns of the main characters was amazing

will check if the ebay fags has gotten their shit together
>>284226843
Here's hoping that with the recent DBZ movie milking, interest springs up and platinum gets to make a high profile DB game

Celceta is a decent game but I wouldn't label it anywhere near fantastic.
As long as you aren't in it for the gameplay, as that is its weakest part.
![vaan_-_alt2[1].png](https://i.imgur.com/aXwZhXG.png "vaan_-_alt2[1].png")
>>284226946
Vaan was fine, calm down
His character arc was done after ~4 hours, he's just a spectator to everything that is happening, they even said that themselves as the reason he was introduced.
He starts out as a brat but after a while he learns his place and does the best to support the others who he recognized as being much more involved in the happenings of the game.
He NEVER got in the way of the story. He had his momentsDONT BELIEVE ONDORES LIESbut after that he isn't even really a "protagonist" anymore, just a member of the team
The promotional artwork made him look really fucking gay though, I admit
>>284225894
Alright; how about this gem?
>>284222007
The combat doesn't play like a typical JRPG, which is the barrier that keeps most out of the series, so it's just a product of the fact that more people have played it.
Still an enjoyable game, regardless.
