Can Anyone Suggest an RPG for Me?

Also, I hate games that rely heavily on level grinding. I know, how can you be an RPG fan and hate the grind. I just think some games do it better than others. Chrono Cross didn't even have levels and Suikoden allowed other characters to catch up to your main character's level really quickly.

Too bad Lost Odyssey might be a little too depressing for your tastes since it was made so that you didn't need to grind much if at all. Don't play FFXII since you will need to grind quite excessively at certain points in the game.

 

 

I didn't mind the grind in FFXII just because the battle system was so good (no random battles, somewhat active, no battle load screens) that I would actually explore every nook and cranny of every dungeon and therefore get in enough encounters that I was always at a high level.

Lost Odyssey just gained points in my book if you're right about the grinding. I just assumed it was "old-school" like Blue Dragon.

Lost Odyssey is a old-school JRPG at heart but it has a few tweaks both good(ring system, relative lack of excessive grind) and bad(there is a stealth section early on in the game)
