For me JRPG's are my favorite vidoe game genre for about 24 years and i start to play several Final Fantasy games, Kingdom Hearts and many more. I like to try new franchises like Megami Tensei games, Atelier games or more Action games like the nier series. So what is your experience with JRPG's so far, tell us a bit about the games you have played.

I got FF3 on SNES as a hand me down from my cousin as a kid and I've been hooked since then lol.

I feel like my most nostaglic and favorite is my first JRPG I got when my parents bought me my PSX. I got to pick one game and I remember looking thru the shelf of games and finding one that had the Squaresoft logo on it and just assuming it would be awesome. It was Saga Frontier lol.

Most recent JRPG I played was Fantasian which apparently may be Nobuo Uematsu and Hironobu Sakaguchi's final game. Which made me sad af, and would be the end of an era for sure, but was a solid game.

I played FF3 on (i think) the NDS. In my optionion it's the first final fantasy that was quite good. The doesn't aged very well. My first JRPG was probably Final Fantasy X.

I haven't heard of Fantasian, have to look for it.

Yea it totally snuck under the radar, most people haven't.

It's from previous Squaresoft big hitters. They formed their own studio and the marketing could be better lol. Hironobu Sakaguchi worked on most Squaresoft titles during their golden years, and Nobuo Uematsu did most of the soundtracks. They are both getting up there in age so they each said this might be their last game.

Gameplay is super solid and a satisfying amount of challenge, and ofc the soundtrack is absolutely fire.
