was chatting a lot in FFXV topic about all kinds of RPG (on playstation i guess). made a new topic here so doesnt kacau too much that one. dunno if it will pick up but yeah. hahah. anyways.

feel free to chat here about RPG. for me favourite RPG's of all time

1. WILD ARMS (only the first one) - i think i played it like 6 times from start to finish. the only game ive played where after 1 hour it shows the game credits. first time i played i was like WTF and then turned off the game. heheh. played a month later after a friend mentioned theres more hahahah.
2. Suikoden (ALLLLLLLLLLLLL of them. nothing like a good turn based RPG with large scale war battles, build own castles, build army of 108 characters, gambling, plot twists, gambling, etc... so damn gooding. Y U NO MAKE NEW ONE!?!!) - the only game that actually made me cry...
2. Final Fantasy VII - of cos.
3. Final Fantasy X & X-2 - great story and battle systems for both. the dress thing was weird, in the end just used 1-2 dresses till max level and can finish the game. ahhh love rikku.

For me some of the best RPG game I've ever played

Chrono Trigger - the story line, the music, everything is just too good.
Chrono Cross - that back story of the main character. and my favorite character, lynx & harle. They somehow remind me of joker and harley quinn.
Xenogears - superb fighting combo, awesome gears , and most OP fella, I.D.

For me, Suikoden first 3 series is the best, then it get too complicated I guess?

i had always been faithful to FF series, and also Chrono Cross & Trigger.

VII - one of my fave, currently replaying all over again, slightly past the death of someone and doing 255 max vitality for all characters.

X - like the combat style and the flexibility it offers. I still haven't conquer them dark aeons and penance though... and that lightning dodging...

Chrono Cross - my 1st RPG. I like everything that it has to offer and the story is good.

ah yeah chrono trigger was awesome. i didnt finish cross though. maybe should revisit to try. xenogears i didnt get to finish cause friend marah and take his game back even though he finished and not playing why so selfish dont let me borrow for more that 1 week i dunno!!

dunno how complicated it was.. such a long time agoo...

now playing trails in the sky. still havent finished 2nd chapter. need to get on that..

star ocean till the end of time is one of the best rpg back in ps2 era
it's among the same line with wild arms and chrono cross

i like how you still dont share spoilers hahahah. dont wanna ruin it for the next generation of FFVII players.

for X, i forgot which summon i got, like the sisters or something. with that i owned the game. they were dealing crazy damage yo.

hmm really should revisit chrono cross. seems you all think quite highly of it. i guess same way i look at suikoden and wild arms hehe.

my most hated RPG is Beyond the Beyond. i mean it was ok, story was good. but so many damn encounters. and one of the mains i forgot his name is supposed to be super strong but loses his powers. then when you get the powers back... hes still about the same as my main character!!!!!! damn them! ahhaha

FF6. Best villain - Kefka. Best storyline and cast. Best FF ever.

Chrono Trigger - At that age and time, having a time travelling game with multiple possible ending just blew my mind apart.

Earthbound - Little cute graphics but the game is so much deep and parallel real life. You dont earn money straightaway after defeating nemies but rather call your dad to tell you stories (he's a writer and this also serves as save function) and then your dad will deposit money into your bank account which you have to withdraw using ATM machines. Weapons are yoyos, frying pans and baseball bats. I LOVE IT SO MUCH!

Suikoden - Gotta catch em all.

Fire Emblem - Waifu/Husbando Simulator.

if i would get a chance to play both xenogears and CC again, i will definitely replay them. they were made to grind and all, unlike nowadays games .

CC is worth because the story is really epic and quite complicated in a good way, you were expecting something then BOOM, you were shown another meaning behind the story.

this game make me have two crush on both the good and bad heroine. haha

From the list about I guess everyone is an old school jrpg?

There was once a Gundam jrpg game, Ms Saga. It certainly wasn't my favourite, nevertheless it was one of one I enjoyed most.

my favourite old classic JRPG:

FF8 - my first FF, maybe mostly about nostalgia, but it isn't half-bad at all

FF9 - the one that I considered true to the "Final Fantasy" name. Everything in it is fantasy - character design, the world & the storyline

Legend of the Dragoon - what can I say - it is just a great game - great character development, superb storyline. If there's one JRPG series that needs to be revive, this is the game


new school JRPG

of course Ni No Kuni, duh~

My personal 3 favourite:

1. Chrono Trigger : I like the battle system and its multiple ending. The only game where I actually played multiple times trying to get the endings. I like the NDS version better than SNES one though.

2. Lufia 2 : A SNES game but its story are great although too long for me . It have unique battle system that have range of magic and you actually need to think whether to buy equipment that give better stats or the one that had more useful skills. Its puzzle are also got range from "thats easy " to " WTF "

3. Tales of the Xillia : The story is like most Tales game cough*saving the world*cough with several plot twist but I like the dual link skills (in this case "arte"). Every character feels different than the other which improve the gameplay albeit all tales games is like that. Also like Tales of Xillia 2.

Chrono Trigger - Best RPG ever. Great story, great soundtrack, great battle system.

Final Fantasy VI - You can outrun and suplex a train.

Terranigma - Excellent story and gameplay. You play as a god who aids in the creation of the world and evolution, defeat all the evils and help humans advance. It has a really touching story and ending.

E.V.O. Search for Eden - IIRC you're a messenger of Gaia and sent to help animals evolve. The mechanics are really interesting because you can freely evolve different parts of your body to any animal's part that's available during that time period.

Super Robot Taisen - Gundams, Getter, Mazinger and your favorite mecha series all in one game. It has the best attack animations in any SRPG ever.

never heard of this earthbound game. but sounds pretty weird. hahahah. i guess like the FFXV demo using the toy hammer as a weapon cause its a kid hahah.


yeah i was trying to explain the concept of leveling up/grinding while playing Ni No Kuni, and she was just like what? can we just put it to easy mode arrrgghhhh.

never played gundam games at all actually. can also put new RPG, but seems there arent many out there. except for those action type like fallout and stuff. seems we all here are old fogies living up the good old days hahaha.

FF8 was the first gun/blade FF right? i never finished that, i remember i stopped for 2 months and then forgot where i was going... one thing i like about new RPG is got a journal hahah. FF9 i really like the cute magic dude.

played lufia long long time ago. man. i feel older and older...

for those not yet in the know.

oh god talk about tales.

First Tales of Destiny, the talking sword and element,

then tales of Eternia, one of the game that I actually get to a lot of secret hideout without the knowledge on google. good old times, upgrading submarine into a flying ship, fighting the Valkyrie and unlocking some secret technique.

Let me give my favorite RPG of all time:

1. Baldurs Gate 2: Shadow of arms (including the xpac throne of bhaal): for me amazing top down rpg game with quite deep mechanic and story.

2. Icewind Dale 2: Again same as above, i'm a bit sucker for top down RPG.

3. Shin Megami Series especialy on PS2 like Nocturne, Digital devil saga, persona and devil summoner.

4. FF8: actually my first FF series which i like a lot.

5. Tales of the abyss: love this one, not to mention tales of worlds

6: Suikoden 4 & 5: good gem from ps2 era

7. Shadows hearts on ps2 also.

8. Dark cloud/chronicles or rogue galaxies.


*there might be some i totally forgotten and never got chance to finish like *cough* FF7 *cough* or like older suikoden or shadow hearts.

Hope these helps.

my favorite of all time will be Tales of Eternia. The 1st ever game that speak from my TV hahaha.

hahahahah. lol. sounds like a pretty messed up game. raising alien babies and what not kekeke. man that high pitch 8bit type sound is crazy. how did we used to sit through hours with that playing.

i never got into the tales series. not sure why. will consider a revisit after chrono cross.

balders gate i think was the first top down action RPG that i finished. good stuff. now the only top down i play is helldivers. also gooding! but not an RPG by any means...

shin megami was good! forgot about that. used to play with my bro. just sit and starrrrreee.


hahah. waiting for the new FFVII which now can also talk from the tv! except its gonna be a trilogy or something like that .
