25 is FFVIII?

24 is FFVII Rebirth?

23 is Trails of cold steel 4?

22 is Demon Souls?

21 is Trails of cold steel 2?

I already guesssed Starcraft for 34. Maybe Starcraft 2.

22 maybe Warcraft, let's say 3.

Correct on 24, 23, and 21. Wrong on 25 and 22. In FFVIII they've been students for a long time before the start of the game, in my #25 the game starts with them just joining the school.

My other guess for 25 was FF Type 0 HD.

But you were unable to guess my FF Type 0 HD hints, so I doubt it. hmmm.

I did actually just start playing Type 0 today, but no it's not that. I played it quite far years ago but stopped, and decided to finally give it another chance since the game has been sitting on my shelf for ages.

Pokémon Gold/silver?

I mean you are so close on these but not quite right. Warcraft is the right franchise I will say, and that StarCraft 2 guess might do better on a different number...

Sorry I can't English anymore since living in Japan.

34 is Warcraft 3 then.

22 is World of Warcraft?

21 I am guessing is Starcraft 2

Likely one of the more obscure titles on my list, Grandia was a game I discovered somewhat randomly while browsing through the PS1 section of the PS Store well over a decade ago now. I was a bit starved for new JRPGs at the time, the genre being in a bit of a slump on home consoles during the PS3/360/Wii generation, and Grandia looked like it might be a decent game, so I decided to give it a go. At that time I had no idea what to really expect from it, as I had really only seen the name Grandia mentioned a few times online prior to coming across it on the storefront. A few hours later I was hooked, and once I finished the game it had become one of my favourite PS1 titles ever, as well as one of the best JRPGs I had ever played.

One of the key reasons why I love the game so much is because it manages to capture a very specific tone in a way that few games ever have, and that's the feeling of adventure in an uncharted world. Fitting, considering that adventure is the main character's primary motivation to leave his home town at the start of the game. Other reasons follow, and the tone and atmosphere turn far more serious as the game progresses, but that's where everything starts, and it creates this sense of awe and discovery with every new location the player visits because that's how the main character sees them. In general, Grandia does a great job at characterization. Every one of the characters you play as has their own specific goals and dreams, and the game makes sure to make each one stand out in one way or another. Another aspect that deserves to be mentioned is the battle system, which is really well-designed and should be adapted for use by other games beyond this series as well. In addition, the game has a great soundtrack, some really nice pixel animation on the characters that I took particular notice during my second time playing through the game, and an engaging story and quite an original setting as well.

The few weaknesses the game has (the dated 3D graphics, rather clumsy and stilted voice acting) are generally just a sign of the time period the game was released in, and an inevitability that you just need to accept in most games from the PS1 era, so those never really bothered me.

2/3 right! But 34 was a spin-off though...
