This was pretty difficult to compile because approximately half of my library is WRPGs. I decided not to include Japanese remakes of WRPGs like Ultima or Wizardry, as that may be a gray area. I also decided not to include strategy games, as those are... strategy games. Despite having RPG mechanics they still belong to another genre.

So in no particular order:
>Zelda II
Embodies all the best qualities of 2D platformers at the time, mixed with RPG elements and a great atmosphere. Consistently challenging and equally rewarding.
>Vagrant Story
Fuck the crafting system, but otherwise a masterpiece. The plot has some really cool machinations, and nothing else Square has churned out or ever will produce in the future could hold a candle to Vagrant Story's awesome scenario writing.
>Final Fantasy I
>Final Fantasy II
This is what FF should have been all along, albeit with more dev time dedicated to playtesting and further balancing. The plot and character development may seem spartan compared to sequels, but this lends more to the classical unities than merely being an excuse plot. FF5 onward is just convoluted fan-fiction and waifu garbage.
>King's Field IV
>King's Field II
>King's Field III
Not too many people are aware of how open-world these games are. Events try to move you along a certain route, but you can mostly ignore plot points and push straight to the final area within an hour of starting up. And it's nice being able to explore an interlinked world with no visible load times.
>Romancing SaGa
Although the original game had some lose ends, the PS2 remake was a bit of a letdown in its own regard. There's too much retrofitted stuff that makes the remake overly complex and really does nothing to improve upon the core gameplay. I'll take the SFC version any day.
>SaGa 2 (not RS2, the Game Boy one)
>Dungeon Magic
Okay, somewhat of an obscure mention. It's Famicom's take on Elder Scrolls, complete with spellcrafting and realtime actions. I'm trying to be mostly retro.

Chrono Trigger is a great game. While I wouldn't put it in my top three I do say it is up there. While it is overrated by its fanboys by a ton it is still a worthy JRPG in its own right.
>>4558017
I've only played Breath of Fire II. It really wasn't that great. It is serviceable but you miss out on nothing by not playing it. Apparently Breath of Fire I is even worse. Also Suikoden 1 isn't that special as well, it is fairly basic in various aspects. Though if it is your thing to sink yourself into something familiar and go globe trotting while recruiting everyone then I can see why someone could enjoy it.

Yeah, no. I have both. Personally, I didn't really care for them. So many elements are just there for the sake of making progression more tedious than it should be. The lore is also paper thin, which is odd coming from a developer like From. KF has tons of supplemental lore.

>The Devil Survivor 3ds port

The addition of Multi-Strike a gargantuanly imba skill is almost solely why i hate the port.

After a awesome boss like Lucifer on DeSu 1 you can wipe Alice on one turn on DeSu 2.

Atlus thought they made a perfect game on DeSu 2 but they didn't the first one was far better and shoehorned stuff from 2 no one asked. The same dev that remade the fusion spells on P3 to balance it.

Another nitpick is that voice acting do not fit this style of game where the characters and animu pics barely move for the voices to fit it seems someone is reading the dialogue for you and i don't like that idea.

Not to mention i usually will read and imagine the emotion on one way but the VA will probably think different leading to many "uh" "ah" "gh" because i finished reading the setence and advanced the text.

This kinda controversial as P3Portable is on my list but i played FES enough to know how the scene was played on 3D and how the characters expressed themselves.

Don't know about but it is true that they lower the soundtrack during voice clips?

Btw making this list was complicated there are no filler entries as not even Chrono Trigger got in.

This is the list of games i love and at least once on a year i stop to replay as a tradition.

Those are shitty, inaccurate, and confusing ways to render those words. There are no double consonants in Japanese, only hard ones indicated by a non phonetic mark, ッ. ポ ケ ッ ト PO KE TO.

And MO N SU TA モ ン ス ター contains only one 'a' sound, in the syllable 'ta' タ that is extended into a longer vowel with the mark ー to compensate for the awkwardness of including an 'r' sound which would produce the unwieldy MO N SU TA RU.

I purposely use a leaner, more accurate and more functional method of transliteration. You probably romanize 王 as 'Ou' you fucking sheep. So step off new jack faggot and think for yourself next time instead of swallowing and regurgitating shitty transliteration methods. *Slaps you over the head with a harisen-desu*

You do realize you can just turn the voices off? The characters are fucking garbage anyway, no ones plays DeSu for the story. DeSu1's are more tolerable then DeSu2's but they're still not good.

DeSu 3ds has a compendium so that automatically makes it better in my book. Though I guess our autism is similar, while I plan to buy Deep Strange Journey I will always stick with the original overall and probably only play DSJ once or twice.

what game on the snes doesn't recognize 4 inputs? WTF does this even mean??

>>4561781
It's not about only having four moves. There is no variety whatsoever in fighting enemies, exploring the map, switching equipment, linearity of progression. For an Action Adventure it is too clunky and drags out and the fights themselves are tediously long while using the same attack because it's just the most efficient one. Onmap abilities, like the climbing claws, are just mandatory stepping stones to hinder you getting further on that section of the map and rarely bring occasions where you will ever use it again afterwards and get benefits for exploring.
For a rpg it has the minimal requirement to even count as one, supperficially creating numbers which mean nothing (attack/defense/hp) and could just as well be left out of the game. They are only used as barriers for progression, forcing you to be certain level on bosses, switching from doing only 1 damage on level 30 and suddenly 250 dmg on level 31 (eg. witch boss).
The only redeeming factor is the story which at times can be boreseome, having the only real variety in the end when jumping around towns and trying to grow them.


In comparison I'd say even Link did it better since there are multiple tools to differ the action adventure aspect onmap aswell as in fights, giving it more complexity with its combinations. There are alot more benefits of exploring and the map itself is better infused into the playstyle of being action-adventure, not too big and so much hollow world where nothing happens. There is no real implication of being an rpg, att/def/hp is replaced with having 2 sets of weapon/armor and hp as the main exploration bonus to make the game easier (which compensated for unexperience and gives a feeling of progression)

I'm not saying that Alttp is godly by any means, but in comparison it pulls it better off
There have been lots games that have done this type of gameplay better, even on the NES.

Eh, that's about it for above good retro-list There aren't that many retro JRPGs that I've played that compare to the enjoyment I've gotten from these, but there's a couple of popular ones I haven't played like Suikoden and Wild Arms. There's a ton of above average ones that I've enjoyed, but I really don't feel like they deserve to be listed.

One of the biggest issues I have with JRPGs is mute protagonist. I fucking hate it, I find it really difficult to get interested in the story when your dude is just giving everyone a thousand-yard stare and occasionally does a sprite animation. There are definitely some games where its done okay-ish, like maybe BoF3, but its still not my kind of thing.

>Why would I? I've finished my eductaion years ago, also I never discussed video games with professors.
You know that I meant Moscow being European. Keep purposefully ignoring the point because you can't respond to the actually important part. You know somebody's aware their argument is fucked when they have to pretend not to understand what you're talking about and hope they can just shift the goalposts away.

Too bad it's a western game because it was made in Europe, though.

No, it would be a North American AND South American country. If Ubisoft made a game in the North American part, it would be a North American game. You can't be this fucking autistic.

Since it's the common sense you're the one who should provide sources that Tetris can't be called an Asian game. Good luck with that.

It's almost you're being close to realising that I'm not arguing with that, lol.

Yeah, just like Japanese game is Western when it's made in office located in Europe.
>No, it would be a North American AND South American country. If Ubisoft made a game in the North American part, it would be a North American game. You can't be this fucking autistic.
This one is your key problem, apparently you can't into simple logic and common sense, since Canada would be considered a South American nation by anyone who isn't an autistic retard, that game and other media released in any part of the country also could be named as South American.

It's not that is perfection its just fresh, never duplicated and caps off a rail shooter series with a unique story. If it had a lot more time in development it could have been totally incredible but as it is it feels big and empty which some people are very critical of but others can believe as part of the setting. It's also fairly short without much post-game content and my own biggest criticism of it, it's too easy once you get the hang of it and your skills set correctly. Needed more balancing.
