These 10 JRPGs are very-well known, with good reviews, but most people, despite knowing them too, don't play them. Here's probably why.

13 Sentinels was an incredible surprise. Got it on sale for $20 and feels like a steal at this point. I’m not a fan of the mech genre but got pulled into the story so strongly I ended up sacrificing sleep many nights to see one more route which ended up turning into 3 or 4. Trails in the Sky to me is still the best arc of the entire series and Estelle is easily in my top 3 greatest protagonists of all time. Haven’t seen a game with this much charm since Lunar and even if the story moves slowly at times the payoffs are so worth it!

Does gameplay get better or more in depth than lining up your enemies to strike them all at once? And does the game have a big and expansive world cause all game play videos I see show the same tiny towns with small populations and not much variety in areas/enemies/etc
@ralpheid905
@ralpheid905 2 года назад
@@sharebear421 well to be fair the game is composed of zones like villages and fields and is not an “open world”. And for the gameplay, moving monsters to one tile and dealing massive combat is the main appeal of the battle system. So to be fair, if you dislike it, don’t bother I think with the game (but it’s one of the most satisfying things to pull of ).

Tbh I could never decide if I like III or IV more (my favourite still is II) 8. Wild Arms 3 - Kind of guilty here, started it many years ago, but never finished it. 7. Tales of Phantasia - Played it in the early 2000s on GBA and Emulator, no need to go back again. I still liked it. 6. Lost Odyssey - Great Game, played it, loved it. 5. God Eater - Tbh the games did not interest me at all, skilled them intentionally. 4. Trails in the Sky - damn I tried so hard to like this series... And I couldn't get into it. I gave up. 3. 13 Sentinels - Did not interest me as well. 2. Odin Sphere - Was nice, played it once. No masterpiece, but still fine. 1. Radiant Historia - A brilliant Masterpiece! Discussion over! One of the best RPGs of the last 20 years.

I never really got into Monster Hunter even though all of my friends were playing it, but the God Eater series just blew it out of the water for me. From the first game, then Burst, God Eater 2, Rage Burst, Resurrection; they just had that wow factor for me that Monster Hunter never had. Also, you pretty much nailed it with the Trails in the Sky series; I finished the first game and loved every bit of it, but it was such a slow burn that I had to stop and never touched the series ever since.

Out of this list I've played only Tales of Graces F. As for the difficulty part, Graces F can be very easy game- if you play on the hardest difficulty. It is a wierd case. Since in chaos mode you get around 5-6 times more title EXP than easy mode. The result becomes that even if you bosses you struggle against on chaos, they become easy when you switch to hard for example.

Oh, yeah, I remember that. I was tearing up at that point. I played it in my early 20s, but it was pretty topical for me since I was trying to deal with growing up, things changing vs. things staying the same, friendships and relationships etc... so even if the story is maybe not the best in the series, it was meaningful to me. Not to mention the combat is to this day my favourite Tales battle system in the whole series, and I've played every Western release except Tempest and Hearts.

Excellent video! The only one I played is Radiant Historia on 3DS and boy, it was such a good ride. Not only the argument and the concept of "fixing the timeline" just like the anime Re:zero is well executed, the gameplay, and the characters are well designed. It is one of those party games where you truly want to experiment different combinations (and not sticking to the first 3 characters) because everyone brings something different to the mix

I finished 'Chrono Trigger' a few years back and all I can say is this: is it overhyped, for sure. Is it still as great game, definitely. For the past five years or so I've been playing catch up with classic JRPG's as well. I had a SNES growing up but my dad was only a fan of Mario so most of the games I played as a kid were platformers. Still fun don't get me wrong I Iove platformers; but it's a little frustrating seeing games I could've been playing. In saying that, I was very young I don't think I would've understood them until I was teenager.

Personally, I don't think Chrono Trigger is overhyped. Well hype is an individual measure. I'd say it is not overrated for sure, it is a great game and its extension is not overdue. It is a fun and great even if somewhat short JRPG. If you ask me, from that backlog I'd tackle those games in the following order: Chrono Trigger, FF6, Xenogears and FF9. I really liked all of those games, but playing two Final Fantasy games back to back can be very tiresome even if they are quite different.

Odin Sphere is a beautiful game, with great writing and fun mechanics. Especially the PS4 remaster. But it's just so repetitive 😭 Every area is like 10-20 long battles vs. the same enemies.

I’ve played Graces F (not long ago either) and it’s now my favourite of the Tales Of series. I played it on easy and it provided the perfect technical difficulty for me. I love the battle system where you have to regularly and strategically guard to fill your special meter, use specific types of moves to beat various enemies and learn various titles to earn specific skills. It’s a strategic master piece of battling. The story is a more basic one but does it very well about 4 young adults and friends (two are also brothers) having to learn about adulthood while also leading various forces or kingdoms. Plus learning the origins of Sophie and how she appeared was great. And finally, the Lineage and Legacies post game story is really fantastic, especially the locations.

Radiant Historia is one of my favourite JRPGs, also finished playing in some weeks 13 Aegis Rim, it was a great game with a strange battle system. Estelle is one of the greatest MC in JRPGs, as a long time fan of Final Fantasy, in these days I prefer to play a Trails game to any modern Final Fantasy, not only the story is good, but also the gameplay and imersion is so much better. Trails is worth the time to beat the 9 localized games that we have so far.

I was lucky/smart enough to preorder Radiant Historia Perfect Chronology on 3DS so only paid like £30-40. It’s very good. Took me about 55 hours. Great battle system. Nice graphics. Music is quite good. The story starts off pretty milquetoast generic anime waring nations but the time travel/alternating timelines really allows events and characters to develop and be fleshed out decently and by the end of the game, the story beats were less obvious/more interesting than at the start. Only major gripe was that for a few hours (embarrassing) I really couldn’t understand how to manipulate the timelines properly to progress, once you’ve got it, you’ve got it, however sometimes it can be difficult to find the correct node in history to find the character or event you need to interact with especially for side quests. Often I’d go to where someone ought to be but they’re not there or they don’t give me the interactions I need. It’s not the most streamlined system and can be obtuse at times. Second to that, the character interactions are often too soppy for my taste. Typical for modern anime and for JRPG’s in general but there’s too many people complimenting you, telling you how thankful they are for XYZ, saying how hard they’re going to try to do XYZ, spelling shit out that we already know, saying “wow that’s so sad” when sad stuff happens. That’s my biggest gripe by far with JRPG’s, a bit childish, tone deaf, not subtle enough. There’s not much of an excuse when you have great voice acting, where you could say something story-critical but convey entirely the right tone through the delivery, without forcing a setting of the tone with very hamfisted player emotional manipulation dialogue separately. On that subject, voice acting is quite good. The best parts of the game are : .Graphics/art style .Battle system .How satisfying moving the story forward through timeline manipulation can be .The voice acting

I actually played some from this list: Tales of Phantasia: When a friend first taught me about emulation, ToP was amongst his suggestions of games to play for the snes. This also means it is amongst one of the first experiences for me playing JRPGs meaning it always has a special spot for me. It was a really solid english fan translation i believe from a group called dejap. I really liked it back than as the battle system really felt fresh after first playing a lot of atb based games from the FF series before that. I also have the GBA version (which apparently is a port from the playstation version). Compared to the snes version this has some extra content (chester fully skilled, suzu playable, lower moria+summon) but I hated some changes to skills and dialogues compared to the snes version I played earlier. Could be due to the fan translation though but especially for certain things involving Arche there were some big differences. GE series: i played all of these on the pc versions. When i was playing for myself a friend saw me playing it, bought games too and we finished all 3 of them in coop too. I liked the story and character loadout system in resurrection (GE1 rerelease combined with GE2) best, but prefer the overall gameplay in GE3 as it got rid of some sluggishness in battle. Trials in the sky: i played through all of skies (and CS too) on the pc versions from steam. I liked the games overall even with the slow pace at times. Most tedious thing i remember was getting all bracer points though. Damnall those hidden quest or special solutions to get to full ranking. Had to play with a walkthrough for that. Plus the chest notices: best thing ever invented in a JRPG. As simple as they might be always good for a laugh.

Am I the only guy on here that HATES Odin Sphere? I played the Vita version years ago and the game is a repetitive button masher. If you played one character's story you pretty much played through all of them because the game has you repeating the same areas and stages, fight the same enemies and bosses the other characters have already fought, etc. It's so boring to play.

You may prefer the classic mode in oding sphere, the one that was done during the ps2 era that is available on the main title screen of the vita version, you cannot button mash in thi version because attack use stamina. it renders the whole game not unlike a souls in 2D, you may prefer that.

@@charlestrudel8308 The button mashing is not even the main problem with the game. It's the repetitiveness. There's a lot of playable characters in the game each with their own stories you need to play though. Problem is, all those characters will at some point visit the same stages and areas as well as fight the same enemies and bosses the previous character you played as had already completed once before. It gets boring after playing two characters.

So of these, I've played Graces, Breath of Fire IV, Wild ARMs 3, Tales of Phantasia (still mad we didn't get the PSP version), and both versions of Odin Sphere (the Remaster made me cry tears of joy when it came out), and Radiant Historia. Have had some experience with Lost Odyssey through my parents owning and playing it. I also own Trails in the Sky thanks to a Steam sale, but haven't had time to play it (you're right how they're so many these days and I don't have the time I had when I was in High School and College sadly).

Sad thing is I own all of these games but have only beaten Tales of Graces and (just finished last week actually) 13 Sentinels but I have tried most of them but either got stuck on a boss or, in the case of The Lost Odyssey, I got to the last disc and it kept giving me a disc read error so I never got a chance to finish it. I wish there was a digital option to play it on another platform (like Steam) instead of Xbox since I don't have one and don't want one.

Nice video! I have Tales of Graces f on the PS3, and I played it well into the post-game story. It's my favorite Tales of ... game, but I can't currently play it anymore since I don't have room for the PS3 on my "gaming rig". :D -- I have Trails in the Sky on Vita/PSTV (it's the PSP version) and I played some of it, but it's still on my backlog. I like it that most of the mechanics of Trails of Cold Steel were already present in Trails in the Sky. -- I have Odin's Sphere Leifthrasir on both PS3 and PS4, but I never really felt motivated to play it, it was really boring to me at the time, I should try again sometime.

Odin sphere I also happened to play that one, but the remake version which is leifthrasir played on vita, its much more better than the old one on another note trails in the sky is awesome I also love jrpg's; some are just slow burn so long as the story/plot interest me or doesn't suck.

I bought Trails In The Sky on PSP because its box-set was available next to Ys 7 which was my main target of mine when I went to the store. The clerk told me he will give me a discount if I bought them together and since I heard many people sing praise for this game for so long, I decided to take his offer. Never regret it. Then I found out that chapter 2 might not be coming (that was 2006) because no one cares about the PSP anymore (except Japan, that is). I was genuinely sad. Years later. Falcom released the definitive version of all the three games to PC and that's when XSEED started porting them to Steam. That was one the happiest news I have ever heard in my life. My problem with the Odin Sphere is how very time-consuming it is. I remember I took 60 hours on the first chapter alone (partly because of the stamina system you mentioned). I really loved it and still want to come back to it one day. Since that system is already gone away in its remaster, that sounds very pleasing to me.

I bought the Odin Sphere collector's edition on PS4 last month but I'm currently playing it on the VITA. Loving it so far. I can tell you didn't overhype it for my tastes. The game is that good. Plus the OST is fantastic. What less to expect from my favorite composer Sakimoto. I can't believe how I could live without playing this game before. I'm at 35hours of playthrough and not even finished with the 6 story arcs. I can guess there's an epilogue after that too so that'll roughly add up to 50 hours of greatness in the end I believe. Thanks champ for recommending that one. I also recently finished the first TWEWY. Gotta play the second one which I have 2 copies of, since I still can't decide wether or not I want to play it on the Switch instead of PS4 for the fluidity haha. Next one I play gotta be Radiant Historia. I bought it on the DS for a fair price but my god is it expensive for PAL regions of the 3DS. Bid offers for that game on Ebay are cruel to me.

Wild Arms is in my top 5 favorite RPG series of all time, up there with Tales and Ys. In fact, Wild Arms 3 was one of my first ever rpg's that I bought when I was first getting into jrpg's. Thank goodness I got 4 and 5 for a fair price, especially 5. Sure, the cover and manual is Italian, but I can play the game in english, so I am absolutely NOT complaining. As for Emulation, I have no problem with it whatsoever. My biggest problem is that, due to how my laptop isn't exactly the most powerful out there, I'm limited to what I can emulate. Great video as always though, love seeing all these top 10's with very varied topics :)

@@blackpepper2610 I'd say the best starting point is Trails in the Sky FC, but you can start at the beginning of any arc and be fine. (So like Trails in the Sky FC, Trails from Zero, or Trails of Cold Steel 1.) Every arc is pretty much self contained outside of some character from earlier arcs popping up again from time to time. However Cold Steel 3 and 4 more directly involve events of previous arcs so those two games are a bit less self contained.

Thoughts: -Never heard of Tales of Graces. -Damn, I didn't know there were that many Breath of Fire games. I've only played Breath of Fire 2 thanks to NSO, and never heard of it before that. -Huh, so Wild Arms is a series. Probably should've known that. -I've heard the name in passing, but that's about it. Only Tales game I've played so far was Symphonia, which I picked up at a used-game store; you know, one of those places that still sells older games. I mistook it for another Tales game I heard was really rare, and picked it up immediately. Unfortunately, that particular copy was bugged, and would freeze during a cutscene in the first forest area. Pretty sure it was the "How to save your game" cutscene or something. I managed to get another copy later. I should get back to that at some point. -Never heard of Lost Odyssey. -Yoooo God Eater is the shit. I saw the anime as a kid and really loved it, and figured out it was based on a game thanks to Project X Zone (weird, I know). I got God Eater 3 on Switch a while back but waited to get the original 2 games before playing through them. I haven't gotten around to playing much of the first game yet. -I kept hearing so much about the Trails series that I started playing it pretty recently. I'm only like 4 or 5 hours in on the first game (Sky 1), though. From what I understand, these are pretty big games, so I guess I have a long way to go. -Ahhh, 13 Sentinels. I really want to get this one, but haven't gotten around to it yet. The trailers and gameplay I saw really intrigued me! Edit: Finally got the game recently, and now it's on my backlog... which is admittedly way too big. -I'm almost certain I've heard of Odin's Sphere somewhere, but I'm not sure. -It feels like no one knows Radiant Historia, man. I thought it looked pretty cool, so I played the demo on 3ds and was hooked. Managed to pick it up at a Gamestop, and they even had a cool 1st edition version or something. Idk if that's just how it comes complete in box, but I thought it was pretty cool. Haven't finished it yet, but I've really enjoyed it so far, except for that one time I played the DLC difficulty. It was an experience. I think I've made like 3 or 4 separate save files, and that's probably the reason I haven't finished it yet lol

There are many in that list I’ve wanted to play but haven’t done. I guess there are just so many games out there that makes it hard to do. The two games from the list I have played and finished include Breath of Fire 4 years back in 2006 or so and much more recently I bought and played through Odin Sphere on the PS4 last year. Both are great games indeed. The latter holds up so well and is crafted to perfection in its slick game play, over arching story lines and certainly it’s visual appeal.

Out of this list, I've played and completed Tales of Graces f, BoF4, Wild ARMs 3 and I stopped playing Phantasia partway through. All I'm going to say is that Graces to this day has my favourite approach to combat and difficulty in the entire series, and the characters (especially Asbel and Hubert) have a pretty special place in my heart. It feels like Zesteria, Berseria and to a lesser extent Arise were all unsuccessfully trying to recapture what it was that made Graces combat so special. I think any fan of the series should at the very least give it a shot.
