I need a relatively short (not 40-60 hour FF type, 15-25 hours would be ok) psx jrpgs.

I already played:
-Alundra
-final fantasys
-vagrant story
-vandal hearts
-parasite shit
-suikoden 1,2

Legend of Mana is on the short side.
Chrono Cross if you don't do all the optional shit.

>>3704286

This page says Tales of Eternia (Tales of Destiny 2 in Japan) should take you about 35 hours.

That's a bit too long. I play games with one friend and we meet up on special ocasions, like new eve.

If you're playing Legend of Mana and want to finish the game without doing sidequests just do the quests with the fancy title card first. You'll know them when you get there, they either have a fairy or a dragon in the title card.

Also you both can play co-op in Legend of Mana.

Rhapsody is pretty short. I think it took me maybe 15 hours or so. It's also easy as fuck, though.

>> No.3704393

Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete is about 15-20hrs if you low lv the game and skip side quests.

Chrono Trigger is 10-15hrs, but the PS1 release has some of the worst loading times of any game I've ever played.

BoF4 isn't too long, I think.
Finished it yesterday and clocked in 30 hours, but I think I spent a couple of hours in total for the fishing shit until I realized what a waste of fucking time it was.

15 - 20 hours really is the ideal time for an RPG. I'm playing SaGa 2 right now, and only the bonus side quests have bumped it over 20 hours. It's so comfy too have a short and simple world.

>ff 7 takes 50 hours
Maybe on the first playthrough. I had around 100 hours on the timer solely because I couldn't find the Lunar Harp and was stuck, so I settled for grinding for hours.

>> No.3707776

Arc the Lad is technically only like 10-15 hours. But it's also mostly set up for Arc the Lad 2 which is 60-80 hours, so yeah.

Try Galerians, it's a fun surival horror RPG and only 5 hours long or so. Do drugs to give yourself psychic powers.

Nice dude silver star is fucking amazing. I'm stuck onlast boss not enough grinding. Kudos.

There is no way that you finish the 1000 arena battles and the 50 floor Forbidden Ruins dungeon within 10-15 hours.

Main story is 25-30 hours at most. It's all the additional, redundant sidequests which stretch it to 50.

>> No.3708253

>>3707905
The arena battles aren't worth it. And the 50 floors make up like 5 hours. The actual main game is pretty much 10 hours.

I feel you, OP. I didn't hate it, but...I was pretty damn glad to be done with it, that's for sure.

Most FF's on the ps1 can be beat super casually at like the 25-30 hour mark

>Suikoden 2 short
If you go for the true ending(you absolutely should no reason no to) its 30+ hours easy. I spent 60 hours but I did some grinding for runes like double strike rune and some missable recipes.

Tales of Phantasia is about 30 hours or less, skip the side content(pluto summon is not worth it, there is nothing left to do plus going 21 floors back and forth is mindless) get the translation patch

>>3705250
Yup bof 3 and 4 are under 30 hours if you skip drop hunting or minigames like fishing. 4s fishing was designed to bait you in, we all been there anon.

>>3708580
if you skip optional dungeons. I know in FF2 i spent most my time in game in the emperors new dungeon.
