Also I love the inclusion of FE Echoes Shadows of Valentia! My personal favorite FE game 😊

Food4dogs is an inspiration for all of us gamers that will eventually grow older and reach that generation. Such an amazing women to be able to talk about her passions and video games. Nothing but respect and a true role model.

Thanks for having me on! Great to see so many content creators come together to form this amazing list 😄

Loved seeing Food4Dogs, Davidvinc, Ircha Gaming, The Gaming Shelf, HallowedBeThyGame, Orbatology, and Backlog Battle!!! While I don't necessarily relate with everyone else's choices - I was very very very happy to be able to relate to Britta's choice! I agree - FE Echoes Shadows Of Valentia was definitely a masterpiece of a game, even within it's own series. Although personally, Awakening still stays as my most favorite Fire Emblem game at the moment until another FE takes its place. ❤️✨

I just had to talk about 13 Sentinels! Super glad you enjoyed it too, and it was really awesome to see other people’s picks as well! Thanks for having me!

I really like how people in the JRPG content creator community are getting along so well overall. You guys put together a great list, though I have to admit that I still need to play some of the games. No Falcom though? I'd add Ys VIII / Oath in Felghana and Trails to Azure.

Truly an honor to be apart of this! Thanks again for the opportunity!

Thank you so much for having me on to gush about my favorite games! You rock!

I have never heard of Food 4 Dogs, but Britta is now my rolemodel and I want to be just like her when I get to that age. I also agree with her about everything regarding Fire Emblem Echoes. I am not sure about my favorite JRPG, but I would say either Fire Emblem Blazing Sword or Tales of the Abyss. I kinda tend toward Tales of the Abyss. I may not like the newer games, but Abyss just did so many things right. It has great characters, a great story and an amazing soundtrack. The games combat may be simple, but to me, simple is best. You have free range to move in the arena, can create pretty cool combos with altered artes and your main healer attacks and heal with singing! The story has so many gut wrenching moments that just hit you in the feels and kick you while you're down. There is also an Anime, that I have the Bluray for, but I can't watch it because I am German and the Bluray is American. (What the hell is the difference between A and B players?) I desperately want Abyss to get a Remaster, because playing on the small 3DS is great and all, but the D pad is not very fun to use because I keep having to readjust my finger on it. This was a fun video and I enjoyed most of the games being talked about here. See you next time mate. Cheers 😊

Absolutely loved this idea! Thanks again for reaching out! Did definitely enjoy the challenge of trying to boil down my thoughts haha!

Thanks for having us on dude! Love hearing everyone’s thoughts. Lot of amazing games here

Food4Dogs having exquisite taste as usual

I'm on board with The Twit Gamer and you, The Kiseki Nut. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is my all-time favourite despite my ~30 years gaming experience. And yes, I have both Pyra and Mythra figures from Good Smile on my shelf. Also I agree with Backlog Battle: 13 Sentinels if awesome. Also I love Atelier series, especially Secret and Dusk, so I'm also in agree with Ircha gaming. P.S.: this year I added Kuro no Kiseki in my list of all-time favourite JRPGs. I rate it a bit higher than Crossbell and Erenobia arcs.

I haven't played every single game on the list, but my gosh, Radiant Historia, 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim and FE Echoes: Shadows of Valentia are amazing. Some great recommendations! Also, I'm glad you invited these guest creators. I've never heard about most of them, except for Food 4 Dogs, but I really appreciate them!

SUIKODEN II ALL THE WAY. OH MY GOD. THAT GAME BROKE MY HEART.

Ys VIII is my masterpiece. I love the gameplay, the setting and the soundtrack is S tier

Thanks for allowing me join in! I always love another opportunity to spread the good word of Final Fantasy Tactics 😁

I had to go forward just to see if any of them would say Suikoden 2... Thank the gods.

Surprised there were no Dragon Quest recommendations! I'd suggest 5 or 7. Great list regardless though, probably going to finally play through my copy of Radiant Historia soon

Such a gift of a video, thank you! Plus you have 2 of my big 3 in DavidVinc and GamingBroductions (just missing XygorGaming)

Holy shit, that first guy has to be the most ripped JRPG player I've ever seen. Kudos for the hard work, brother.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to participate in this colab! It's amazing to see so many passionate RPG creators together and you seamlessly blended everyones clips together masterfully! Some truly great choices and I feel Suikoden 2 is definitely right up there, if not at the very top! Amazing video as always Kiseki and I love watching through your video library multiple times on the big TV in the living room!

My top 3 JRPGs ever are in this video, so I'm satisfied lol

People generally prefer the game they played in childhood , but the first time I played FFIX was at my 25 in 2012, it’s holding up the place of best game in history in my heart till today.

Holy Moses, this is awesome! I knew about DavidVinc, Gaming Broductions and Ircha Gaming before this video, but the other Channels were unbeknownst to me completely. Thank you very much for introducing them to an oblivious Boomer like me. Guess I know now what to do next week during my break from work. 🖥

Thanks for the opportunity to share my thoughts about P5R, man. Watching the other great creators and their amazing personalities, I did come across as a bit too formal, but it's something to work on. Silly me also forgot to include an intro in my video to thank you as well. I'll bear that in mind next time :). Amazing video, TKN.

Great showcase from everyone! Loved seeing food for dogs included lol!

props to GamingBroductions for pronouncing Zidane correctly.

That's amazing that you got Food 4 Dogs on this video! Such a lovely soul and a genuinely great content creator. Also shoutout to the Xenogears and Xenoblade 2 reccomendations. To this day still my favourite series and both are in my top 5.

Shadows Of Valentia and 13 Sentinels are also on my list of all-time favourites. Wonderful unforgettable experiences.

Suikoden 2, to this day, is still such a masterclass. Amazing story. Huge cast of lovable characters. Varied and fun gameplay. Incredible soundtrack. And it doesn’t overstay it’s welcome, telling a full and emotional story in only about 30 hours. I’m so unbelievably excited for the remaster, hoping that more people can try out this masterpiece I’ve adored for years.

I would have given the nod to Yakuza Like a Dragon as a game I couldn't put down and I look forward to the sequel. I haven't managed to find any other turn based RPGs to compare to it until Honkai Star Rail, even if it isn't an exact genre match. I love the characters, the world, the way the story goes from serious to stupid. Sakura Wars gets a honourable mention after I heard about it from this channel. I tried all sorts of other games, including Dragon Quest, Ryza, Fire Emblem, Neptunia, but none of them felt like what I was after.

Played all of this game.. except Atelier. Suikoden 2 just holds a special place in my heart.

Seeing Xenoblade Chronicles 2 makes me so happy. I can't deny it's rather flawed but it's also the game that got it's hooks into me and had me so emotionally invested in its characters and world that I couldn't put it down. I tend to burn out on games around the 60 - 70 hour mark but I remember I was doing the post game content at the 150 hour mark and still having the time of my life. What a great game.

Awesome episode! The games showcased are must haves and to have such great guest was a surprise to me as I follow nearly half of them already. Perfect spectrum!

this is like an "ALL STARS" episode of my favorite show. amazing creators ❤ I'm surprised to find a few people I haven't seen before. thanks for the video and an amazing collaboration :3

nice idea of a video, it was a lot of fun to watch

Good video! I'm discovering this channel and a bunch of others thanks to the collab. I am also a creator that is getting back into the JRPGs, right now playing Octopath Traveler and 100%ing all the Ys releases on Steam, which is becoming fast one of my favorite series of all time! Lovely work, kudos to all the creators for sharing their love for these games!

Such an awesome video! I love seeing everyone coming together in videos like these lately to celebrate games we love!

Thank you for this. Maybe only one or two of those creators had shown up in my feed at all, looking forward to checking them all out, much appreciated

Great collab, I appreciate you doing this. I knew about half of these people and just found several more people to follow! Most my picks are represented here; the one glaring omission I would've monologues for 3 minutes about is Nier Automata. And FFXIV, if someone had the heart to do so.

Pleasantly surprised with Britta's pick. I looove that game! Excellent choice. Masterclass remake indeed.

HULLO! Thank you for having me on man! Big up to everyone's choices!!!

Awesome idea for a video! Loved hearing everyone's thoughts

This was a mighty fun video - got to see a bunch of passionate, articulate folks gush about their favorite games. Thanks for collecting these and to the people who contributed.

These community videos are fantastic! I am currently playing Grandia, and it is great.

TKN and Tarks Gauntlet are two of the most underrated content creators in the business - love both of you guys!

Amazing collab, I love these types of videos! Thanks for bringing this to us.

One content creator I wished to hear in this video would have been the JRPG Jungle, but hell, you collected a bunch of truely wonderful persons in here. I played a lot of these games the past years and esp. FF6 was stuck with me. Personaly my 10/10 JPRG. Esp. in the Pixel Remaster! In Addition: GO OUT EVERYONE AND PLAY Ys: Lacrimosa of Dana. It is a wonderful A-JPRG, best YsGame ever!

It was so fun to be part of this! Thank you for having meee 🫧🫧🫧

Star Ocean 2 and Early Tales (Eternia) was so ahead of its time and deserve to be in the list.

This is a dope complication! Well done 👍

games that were a 10/10 for me that were not included on this list - Persona 4 Golden - absolutely incredible OST, unforgettable cast, top tier voice acting and writing Final Fantasy 12 - often overlooked but I thought the combat, writing and visuals were gorgeous and a love letter to traditional JRPGs Tales of Vesperia - one of my favorite protagonists (Yuri), great combat and a deep, engaging story Trails to Azure - this needs no explanation (greatest game of all time) loved this collab and added a few games that I haven't played before (Radiant Historia and Terranigma)

Love all the collaborations between some of my favorite channels.

This was an amazing collab with awesome picks!!!

What a great list of amazing games by so many people, well done!

Britta coming in based with Fire Emblem Echoes. Also have to give props to Orbalology for Radiant Historia as well.

Glad to see that so many people are putting respect on the Final Fantasy name ❤

Great video as always! But I also hated it...the list of games on my wishlist increased 😂

This is a such a nice and varied list! JRPG fans from all walks of life, and featuring from old to new. My pick world be Ys: Lacrimosa of Dana. Fun, touching and unforgettable. Nice video again!

So many great games listed! Also some spicy hot takes 😮 🔥 Love this! 😊

This was a lot of fun. Some great selections to.

Love seeing some love go to the Ni No Kuni series, but am more for the first game myself

Cool concept and a super solid list overall 😄👌🏽. I might consider giving Terranigma a try ;-).

I wish there were more creators for this collab, this is awesome!!

14/15 great games in the list can't be bad. Nice collab!

What a great video. Love the compilation of people's favorites.

One of the best colabs I have seen. Most of the channels I subscribed to but am glad to be introduced to new ones

This is the JRPG Avengers..Amazing. Thanks for making it possible

So glad someone mentioned Xenoblade Chronicles 2, it's one of my all time favourite games! The music is probably my favourite gaming soundtrack, one song in particular sticks in my mind called Our Eternal Land, sung by an Irish Choir, everyone should RU-vid it if they've never played the game. Irene from Ircha Gaming also got me into the Atelier games, they're very addictive with great battle systems and people should definitely check them out if they haven't already.

Would love to see more of this kinda content in the future!❤

Nice picks for all. Surprised nobody has Skies of Arcadia.

Great video with so many good people and their great channels. Those were all awesome games

I love the collab videos

To mention my own 10/10 i would add Vagrant Story to the bunch, a miracle of a game for PS1

Fantastic list! Nailed what I call the "Holy Trinity" of Final Fantasy games. 6, Tactics and 9. Literally all the games listed were absolute bangers! Great video

This is collaboration at its finest! So many creators we know and love and so many we dont know who clearly have a great taste in games! Excuse us while we go and binge some youtube now! Good job team!

Disappointed no XC1 in here, I still think its the best of the 3 XCs.

I see Suikoden II, I give an upvote. It's that simple.

Did anyone else figure out a bunch of the entries just from the intro music played? SO MANY great JRPGs come with memorable music.

Ircha got me into the Atelier series as well, I'm slow burning Ryza 1 as much as I can to savor it. I was glad to see 13 Sentinels, Xenogears, and Radiant Historia here. I would have put Trails in the Sky 1 & 2 on the list. Those games are perfect JRPGs in my opinion, with story I'm always invested in, characters I'm always happy to see, immersive lore, and varied & strategic combat.

I've played lots of them and I am currently playing Atelier Ryza 2 right now!

It’s a tough question but it’s definitely NieR Automata the game is epic Story 10 out of 10 Gameplay 10 Characters 10 Soundtracks 100000!!!! It’s the only game that actually managed to change my life and change my opinion about life and death

Man, it was great to see Food4Dogs feature here. I love her channel

well some big classic here in this list , i'm a bit sad not to see more "underground" jrpg name like shadow hearts (2 is my absolute jrpg favorite! ), baten kaitos , xenosaga ( at least there is xenogear^^ ) or falcom game (but for the latter you are here thankfully !)

Collaborations are literally what most every consumer loves to see!

Thanks for making this wonderful collab video on JRPG's. From my end I want to mention three games that I think need some love & attention. Infinite Space a Platinum Games production on Nintendo DS; Suikoden 5 on PS2 and Mother 3 on SNES & GBA. I really think most of the JRPG lovers would love these games. Thank you.

Bro that grandma at the end is so based. Shes getting my sub!

Haven't played many games from the list but now I know where to start. My 10/10 is definately Legend of Dragoon. At this point I can't even remember how many times I played this masterpiece, but I still enjoy it after all these years. Combat is a chef's kiss, I've never seen anything like it Also my picks are: Ys viii, Final Fantasy 8 and 10, Chrono Cross, Trails in the Sky Thanks for the video!

Great video! Thank you

YES! RADIANT HISTORIA LOVE!

Mother freaking Chrono Trigger. It still holds up just as well.

For me. My personal masterpiece rpg is dark cloud, I still have most of my ringtones set to the OSTs, the fights were awesome. I loved the world building and the party members. Just everything about it I love.

The amount of work you and the great creators involved with this video must have had to put in to get this video across the finish line is more than commendable. Every pick a true winner. Had I contributed to this video, I would have chosen Breath of Fire 3. This is especially a good choice in my mind as no one else picked it but also that it encapsulates everything in a JRPG that I believe should be there. Thank you TKN and everyone involved, this is wonderful.

Pretty solid showcase! I think there's only three games I haven't played here (and Ryza 2 is on my wishlist after I finished Ryza 1 a couple of weeks ago) I'm surprised there were no Tales of games on this list though and I'll shoutout Star Ocean 2 because I feel it's becoming a forgotten gem these days.

Thankfully, 3 out of 15 games that the creators had mentioned, I played it and I'm quite satisfied too (P5 Royal, Fire Emblem Echoes and Radiant Historia Perfect Chronology)... Other games that everyone mentioned in this video... I'll give it a try (minus PS games because I only have Nintendo Switch at the moment) As for my favorite, it's Trails of Cold Steel 4.

I love these so much. I would die for more collabs

25:44 that makes me happy, YNWA DARKPHOENIX!

Nice video, came here, because foodfordogs told me about it
