Forums - Gaming - All the JRPGs you´ve ever played, which one had the best and worst story?

So, in your opinion, which JRPG had the best and worst plot?

IMHO:

Best:XENOGEARS

Worst:Star Ocean 3...Disappointed me.

Pokemon(It has like no story at all). That doesn't make it bad though.



BEST: Terranigma
WORST: FF VIII

Best: Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne

Worst: Tie between Final Fantasy 7 and Star Ocean 3



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

Best - FF VI

Worst - FF XII

CRAP!!...Had completely forgotten about Star Ocean 3.

*removes FFVIII from the list and replaces it with SO3*



For a jrpg that has a story, FFXII is it.

Edit: OH and the best goes to chrono trigger and FFVI.



Best:FFX, KH series, Chrono Trigger/Cross

Worst:Final Fantasy XII(story wasn't bad, just not as good as previous games in the series)

@Garcian Smith
LOL at saying SO3 had the worst story. I personally though that SO3's story, while not the best, was still pretty decent. That's my opinion though, not your's. Can't comment on FFVII story since I never played it before.



Best: Kingdom Hearts II.

Best: Maybe Final Fantasy VI. Pretty much every character was compelling, and there were so many great subplots.

Worst: Either Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest (boils down to: "Ben, you're a crystal!") or Enchanted Arms (thanks in no small part to Atsuma's constant, plaintive refrain of "Toya...?").

Edit: Oh, snap. I just remembered Final Fantasy X-2. Y! R! P! Girl Power! Yeeuuuch.
