What jrpg do you think has the best gameplay?



Around the Network

Either Mother 3 or Final Fantasy 12.



Chrono Trigger - simple and addictive



"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."

"The so-called "hardcore" gamer is a marketing brainwashed, innovation shunting, self-righteous idiot who pays videogame makers far too much money than what is delivered."

Paper Mario.



CIHYFS?

I'd say Paper Mario, Tales of Symphonia, or Chrono Trigger.

Best: Chrono Trigger / Xenogears
Worst: FFXII



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Easily Panzer Dragoon Saga. A revolutionary combat system that puts other JRPG's combat systems to shame.



Pokemon hands down.

Is it really that hard to come into a topic about praising gameplay, and to stick to the stated intent of that topic instead of attacking someone else's choice? I can't imagine that it's that difficult. It requires less effort.



Grandia 3

Xenogears

Tales of Vesperia

Xenosaga Episode 3 (E.S. Combat)
