Forums - Sony - PS4 Becoming The Perfect JRPG Machine

Eeeh... i have trouble considering hunting games RPG's. So, God eater and toukiden really shouldn't be in the list. They are grinding games with a bit of story on the side.

But otherwise, yes.

I think PS4 is ahead of the PS3 by now with all the JRPGs it has comeing.

PS3 was such a poor JRPG machine and infact the Xbox 360 was a best JRPG machine of last gen.

Fact #1: Almost every multi-platform JRPG that came out on both the Xbox 360 and PS3 was better on the PS3 in some form or fashion (For example: Star Ocean 4, Enchanted Arms, Eternal Sonata, Final Fantasy XIII, etc...)

Fact #2: The PS3 had more JRPGs exclusives that the Xbox 360 (For example: Tales of Grace f, Fairy Fencer F, Tokyo Twightlight Hunters, Tales of Xillia, Tales of Xillia 2, Tales of Symphonia Chronicles, Atelier Rorona, AtelierTotori, Atelier Ayesha, Atelier Meruru, Disgaea 4, Disgaea 3, Ar Tonelico Qoga, Legend of Heroes, Ar Nosurge: Ode to an Unborn Star, Cross Edge, Hyperdimension Neptunia, Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk2, Hyperdimension Neptunia V, Trinity Universe, Valkyria Chronicles, Demon's Souls, Ni No Kuni, etc...

Want the best JRPG collection buy a Gaming PC, not only does it offer the latest but you can also play the oldest. Seems like all FF games are coming out too. I almost own the entire collection just on Steam.

PS4                                                                                                                             PS3

  • Final Fantasy XV                                                             Vs                      Final Fantasy XII,Final Fantasy XII-2, lightning returns 

    Final Fantasy XIII was underwhelming to many FF fans nor did they ask for FFXII-2 & Lightning Returns

  • Final Fantasy VII Remake
  • Star Ocean 5: Integrity and Faithlessness                    Vs               Star Ocean 4, Star Ocean 5         

    PS3 version of Star Ocean 5 is not available in the west. You have to import the Japanese version.
                             
  • Persona 5                                                                            Vs               Persona 5, Catherine

    Catherine is not a JRPG
  • Tales of Berseria                                                             Vs             Tales of Berseria, Tales of Zestiria, Tales of  xillia 1 y2, Tales of Symphinia Croniles 
  • Valkyria Chronicles Remastered                                        Vs           Valkyria Chronicles

    Better performance and resolution on the PS4 version along with the DLC content already available. I'd say the Remastered version is more attractive.

  • Valkyria: Azure Revolution                                                  Vs           White Knight Cronicles 1 and 2

    False equivalency. Setting and gameplay of the two series are not the same.

  • Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization                               Vs Rune Factory

    Another false equivalency.

  • Black Rose Valkyrie (and Megadimension Neptunia VII)                                                              Vs             Hyperdimension Neptunia  1,2 and 3
  • God Eater 2: Rage Burst                                                       Hunter Game  

    Uh... I tried to look for "Hunter Game" and nothing came out
             
  • God Eater Resurrection vs Ragnarok odyssey

  • Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom                                      Vs        Ni no Kuni
  • Dragon Quest Heroes II                                                      Vs          Dragon Quest Heroes II          

    The PS3 version of DQ Heroes I was not available in the west, so I don't expect the PS3 version of DQ Heroes II to come out in the west either.

  • Dragon Quest XI
  • YS VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana Vs Resonance of Fate
  • NieR: Automata                                                                   Vs            Nier
  • Nioh Vs Trinity souls of zill o'll
  • Fairy Fencer F: Advent Dark Force                                     Vs        Fairy Fencer 

    Advent Dark Force has more content as well has having numerous gameplay improvements (e.g. more characters in battle)
  • Kingdom Hearts III (and Kingdom Hearts 2.8)                                                               Vs        Kingdom Hearts 1.5 y 2.5
  • Summon Night 6: Lost Borders                                        Vs        Eternal Sonata         
  • World of Final Fantasy
  • I Am Setsuna
  • Atelier Sophie: Alchemist of the Mysterious Book         Vs    Atelier Rorona, Shanie, Esha an logy
  • Odin Sphere Leifthrasir  Vs Odin Sphere Leifthrasir
  • Toukiden 2                                                                              Vs    Toukiden 2
  • God Wars: Toki wo Koete Vs Time and eternity

You also forgot the following:

 

  • Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth
  • Grand Kingdom
  • Nights of Azure
  • 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim
  • Dragon Quest Builders
  • Exist Archive
  • Omega Quintet
  • The Witch and the Hundred Knight: Revival Edition (you can't play as the witch on the PS3 version and the PS4 version has a lot less bugs)
  • Disgaea 5
  • Deception IV: The Nightmare Princess

In addition, you're comparing the amount of JRPGs one console has gotten in 8 years vs the amount the other will have gotten 4 years into its lifecycle. If you want an apples to apples situation, then compare the amount of JRPGs the PS3 and PS4 gotten in their first 3 years.



I don't know if perfect but definitely better than the PS3. Now let's see if it can get to PS1/PS2 levels.

I'm looking forward the most to Final Fantasy XV, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Persona 5, Ni No Kuni 2, Dragon Quest XI, Kingdom Hearts III and World of Final Fantasy. Nier 2 and Ys 8 also look interesting but I need to do more research on them because I never played their predecessors.

Btw I already have Digimon Story Cyber Slut but still haven't played it.



If this was 2005, i would be all over it. Recently, I've made the switch to western RPGs, there's just such a great variety in WRPGs that JRPGs have become stale. Games like Wasteland 2, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Fallout, Divinity Original Sin have been some of my favorite gaming experiences of the past 5 years or so, while I don't even actively search and purchase JRPGs.

That being said, I am looking forward to the Final Fantasy games, kingdom hearts III, Star Ocean, and Persona 5. This is a pretty varied ( at least in names?) so i'm sure there is something for every kind of RPG gamer.

My point is:

In the end of generation PS4 = PS3
