Top 5 time!

#5 - A recent remake made changes to link itself to this sequel, which is also being remade.

#4 - After this game the series jumped to a different console brand; the original brand only got the game's sequels 22 years later.

#3 - You could say this game started the arc of the Covenant.

#2 - Ten years after this action-RPG, its director made a game that brought back a forgotten Disney character.

#1 - This sequel in a long-running franchise looked toward the premier game for inspiration, which partially explains its massive commercial and critical success.

2: Deus Ex (talking about Warren Spector and Epic Mickey I presume)

I have to catch up, so let's get going. Etrian Odyssey stays unguessed, probably #7 as well, but hopefully the other get guesses:

#7: As you complete the quests for the people, the tavern gets more and more empty, as these task was often the last thing that kept these people in Duhan.
The game is in a classic RPG series that started in the west, but this game and others are japanese entries.
This party based RPG allows for special moves involving multiple party members called Allied Actions.
This PS2 game has kept the magic system from the series that once started at Sir-Tech.

#6: Once you completed the story and therefore no finished task triggers it automatically, you can ask for the high five.
The story has three main chapters on their separate islands, but the stuff happening between the chapters is often even more interesting.
You main goal is building stuff that people ask you for.
This is a a spin-off series to a long running RPG series, this is the second game in the spin-off series.

#5: Guessed by S.Peelman: Tokyo Mirage Session ♯FE

#4: Guessed by UnderwaterFunktown: Heroes of Might and Magic III

#3: Magandang tanghali po!
Buenos días!

#2: Use the Oraclos chain.
The chain is not only useful in combat, but also in solving puzzles.

#1: Guessed by UnderwaterFunktown: Elden Ring

_{ranking in the guessing game, list so far}

6: Dragon Quest: Builders 2?

Almost over already, feels weird every time.

I'm sure I know this one, just can't place it at all. The instrumentation reminds me of Okami, so I'll guess that.
