Anon, I have a simple question: What is your favorite JRPG out of the ones you did NOT grow up with?
I'm liking TWEWY and Bravely Default lately.
I'm also going to try Chrono Trigger soon.
Somehow I missed Grandia and have been playing it recently, it's so adorable.CMON PUFFY

>TWEWY
This.
Tales of Symphonia was pretty dope
Xenoblade Chronicles
Aside from a great story and a fantastic combat system, what really blows me away about it is the sense of scale the whole thing has. Just the sheer size of the world and the enemies you face blows me away. I want more games where you fight huge things
EarthBound
The only JRPGs I grew up with were Pokemon. I've been playing catchup the last few years.

SMTIV probably, although I had the luxury of not growing up with any games until I was around 11 so I could say something like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon and it would probably still count even if it was one of the first games I ever played.
Nier
Demon's Souls

Strange Journey
>>340017249
Persona 3 or Super Robot Wars OG

Earthbound. I didn't get it when I was a kid. I played it on the wii u and was pleasantly surprised that it was the greatest game ever
>>340017249
Dragon Quest 4
I love how simple and sweet it is, and I've always had a thing for narratives with multiple protagonists
Final Fantasy 5 is my favorite game, and I didn't play it until I was 16
>>340017249
I used to love DQ before I grew up and realized JRPGs fucking suck and we're never good
If we're counting ARPG, I recently played Secret of Mana, which I found very hard to put down.
Other than that, just like this guy >>340024359 I would say Final Fantasy V
>>340017249
I'm not good at choosing favorites, but Sweet Home was pretty dope when I played it last October.

This one. Recaptured that feeling of going out into the world for the sake of just seeing it.
>>340017249
If not turn-based then Ys: OiF, if turn-based then maybe DQIII or Cyber Sleuth but there have been a lot I played in the last few years I really liked.
>>340017952
I should get about to playing XBC, I only played it on Dolphin to past Xord and I quit for some reason, ended up buying the 3DS version and had a hard time getting into it due to it just being downscaled.
Valkyrie Profile.
None of the JRPGs I grew up with would make my top ten.

Literally just got a tat of Lenneth on my arm yesterday. That game is so underated
>>340024359
>>340025468
You two are my niggas.
I would have said Ar Tonelico or Fantasy Life. Recently, however, I probably have to give it to Trails in the Sky
>>340025573
Wish the final boss music was spookier, though.

Xenoblade, Dragon Quest V, and SMT are the big ones.
