Make up your mind /v/ fuck
What jRPGs are the most interesting gameplay-wise, /v/?
>>344555420
well paced game with one of the only jrpg stories that treats it's teenage main chars like actual kids instead of god-crushing world savers.
Realistic relationships between chars, simple but fast battles, solid music.
probably the best jrpg on the ps1
>>344555420
You'll appreciate suikoden 2 more if you play it after the first.
>>344555956
this game, it has cheese wiz in the translation.
Expect to have a love/hate relationship with pigs
>>344555956
The best one is Baten Kaitos: Origins, the prequel. Difficult, engaging, depth, fast, basically everything you want from gameplay.
Valkyrie Profile 1/2 and Grandia 2 and on have been my other favorite gameplay in the more "turn based" realm of JRPGs, but there's tons of solid games in the action rpg genre too.
Rina is best girl

what do I even play /v/?
>>344556251
I dont remember any pigs and i beat the game a few weels ago
>>344556968
Tale of Destiny then SaGa.
Nostalgia for highschool, damn.
>>344555863
it's tedious fun, what's hard to understand?
>>344556968
Legend of Legaia
Underrated fucking gem of a game.
A real great sister-fu
>>344555420
Amazing game, one of the best jrpgs youll ever play.
DONT FUCKING MISS CLIVE WHEN YOU GO TO MUSE.
GET THE SQUIRREL IN YOUR HOMETOWN TO SPARE YOURSELF SOME HEADACHE LATER.
Contrary to popular belief theres only like 3 characters that are "missable" with no chance of getting them before a certain deadline.
>>344557554
which are those faggot
Level up Nanami.
>>344557554
Clive is under 20 hours, that's the only problem.
>>344557554
fucking hate planet fitness. cant even so much as make a breathing noise while lifiting any weights or you get thrown out.
Enjoyable "main villain" that had to die halfway through because it's an JRPG and they needed some giant monster for the end boss.
>>344555956
The Last Remnant.
Has one of the coolest and unique JRPG battle systems i've ever played, underrated game imo. Just don't grind.
>>344555420
A lot of fun
>>344556997
I'm glad you blocked out the memories of the pigs
>>344557985
Is that the one where you getdaughter of sophitia like momlater on?
>>344557663
Clives bonus quest is 20 hours, this is optional. his actual recruitment just requires you to walk in a certain alley early on in muse.
>>344557637
Clive (muse)
Gilbert(defeat his unit)
futch and humphrey(go to the outlying village before entering matilda castle)
That should be it, most "early" missable characters give you a 2nd chance of recruiting em at a later date.
If you miss anita in muse, you NEED to get valeria(instead of kasumi) in the toran republic.
When you get the 2 crystals to talk to animals, make sure to only get the animals that count(there are extra animals that don't count).
Aside from that, the only missables are if you act like a giant cunt during recruitment events, which is 100% your fault anyway.
How is the base/town building element? Thinking of picking this up
>>344558461
really? Every guide seems to imply otherwise, what do you get from his sidequest?
>>344558498
It's not really there. You recruit certain people and they open up a shop in a specific spot in your fort
timed quest ruins the game. why did anyone think it was a good idea?
>>344558498
Fucking amazing, going from a relatively shitty castle into a what, 7 story high castle with farms, a fucking cook-off minigame storyline arc, fishing, bigass shops, a detective area which gives you bonus info about people, gambling, giant barracks reflecting all the cities armies you recrutied and other shit is just damn impressive for a ps1 game.
The castle, despite being huge is quite practical and well designed, it's also like 10x bigger than the piece of shit you get in suikoden 3.
>>344558632
Just some scenes.
youtube it.
Clive is considered "permanently recruited" after you trigger his scene in muse and speak to him in south window after obtaining your castle.
The timed missions are just fanservice.
You'll watch in amazement as your charactersget fooled by the same fucking people, again, and again, and again, and again...
>>344558713
freeze the timer with cheats
>>344558830
This game and Baldur's Gate 2 hooked me up on base building in RPG. Can't go without them now.
>>344558830
too bad suikoden 3 is the better game
>>344558713
>one winged angel starts playing in your head
>manually
>>344558952
Well that almost fixes the entire game for me, thanks, always hated missing something like that because I actually explored the game.
>Exertion/Double-Beat Clive
I like where this is going
>>344555420
You can expect an Undertale clone.
>>344556173
There was a rayearth game and it was released in the west? Radical.
>>344555420
Luca Blight is insanely strong and will fucking wreck your shit
