Dunno about all time but def some of my faves last gen were Kingdoms of Amalur. Dragon Age Origins. Deus Ex Human Revolution. The Last Story and Blue Dragon.

Fallout 3 and 4, and Pokemon. Those are the only ones I've played and enjoyed. RPGs are maybe my least favorite genre, because they tend to focus more on story than gameplay, which just isn't my style. I do eventually want to play a Kingdom Hearts or Fire Emblem game, but that hasn't happened yet.

FFIX by a long shot.

Star Ocean 2- By far my favorite game in the series. Two planets with two fully realized over worlds (In the JRPG format). It also features an incredibly complex item creation system and an excellent action oriented battle system. Rena and Claude's story will never be forgotten. |
I'm surprised this has barely been mentioned, one of the best JRPG's.
I don't rate many of the newer JRPG's that highly on my list and it seems to be a trend with everyone.
My top 5 would be:
Suikoden II
FFVII
Star Ocean the second story
LOD
Wild Arms
Bonus: Dark Chronicle, I think it may have been called Dark Cloud 2 in other territories.
CHRONO trigger and suikoden 2 are still the benchmarks of the genre. The first xenoblade came close, but not quite there.
I would say how awesome it would be if CHRONO trigger was remade, but square would just ruin it. They haven’t made anything good in ages.

I think it might be because most people haven't played the game. It came out at the peak for the JRPG golden age and might have gotten lost in the shuffle for some. I was a sophomore in High School then, and was lucky enough to have a part time job, so I could buy RPGs pretty much every two weeks. SO2 got very good but not stellar reviews, I was still enticed by its premise so I made sure to get it. I was greatly surprised by how good it was.
IMO the Star Ocean series never really got close to it afterwards. SO3 was good, but I didn't feel it, especially with that big plot twist in the ending. SO2 is definitely one of the great RPGs, I think its worthy of a remaster.

And yet it has already veered off course, thanks to your continued last word on a subject that isn't a part of the OP. Also, I told you before as to why I didn't list, but I'm not ehre to adhere to what you find acceptable/not accessible. |
No offense, but let’s be real here. The thread specifically asked you to name your favourite RPGs and the only thing you did is diss on JRPGs to say you prefer WRPGs without even naming one single title. In a thread where most comments before yours listed JRPG titles.
From the get go, it looks like you wanted to stir shit and bait people.

I admit I need to finish it. Had the game forever.
