Forums - Gaming - JRPGs with the best/most likeable parties

One of the most important parts of a JRPG to me is having a good party of characters.

The ones that come to mind for me roughly in order:

  • Tales of Symphonia
  • Persona 5 (Royal)
  • Final Fantasy VII
  • Persona 3
  • Tales of Vesperia
  • Tales of Berseria

Curious to hear other people's favorites.

Yakuza: Like A Dragon and Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth.



Chrono Trigger and Super Mario RPG comes to my mind right now.



All of the ones I can think of come from Final Fantasy:

Final Fantasy 7
Final Fantasy 6
Final Fantasy 10
Final Fantasy 9

...pretty much in that order too.

Honorable mention goes to Undertale, which isn't made by the Japanese and you don't have a party.  But it feels a lot like the JRPG and the "bosses" are a great cast of characters.




Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasies 6, 7, 9
Lunar 1 and 2
Lost Odyssey
Ys 8 and 9
Tales of Berseria
Tales of Vesperia
Breath of Fire 1, 2, 3 and 4
Dragon Quest 4,5,6,8 and 11
Every Suikoden game ever

Also, Chrono Trigger, yeah.



Skies of Arcadia
Tales of Vesperia
Super Mario RPG
Final Fantasy IX
Grandia

That reminds me that Deltarune has a great party as well! Admittedly only 3-4 characters but still
