Astral Chain is my all-time favorite! It's a shame that the game is a hidden gem to this day.

@tutuexe Год назад

Absolutely!

@Flareboxx Год назад

Nier Automata and Astral Chain are the 2 best Action RPGs on the system that you missed, but other than that, it's a good list. I don't think Bayonetta 3 counts as an RPG even though it has a skill tree, but THAT is not only the best Action game on the switch, but the best Action game I've ever played.

@panuru9175 Год назад

Nier automata is kinda slow on the switch, you better get on another hsrdware, at least for me, if you pass the intro you are hella fine

@Flareboxx Год назад

@@panuru9175 Yeah Switch isn't the best platform to play Nier Automata on, but for those who only own a Switch, it's definitely better than not playing it at all!

@ordohereticus3427 Год назад

NieR Automata plays just fine on the Switch. The frame timing is stable and the game is playable with good visuals for the screen size and hardware. It’s a feat of excellent porting.

@whosaidthat84 Год назад

Astral Chain was a blast! Platinum Games and the Switch are a match made in Heaven. Loving Bayonetta 3 as well.

@lr4164 Год назад

Astral Chain isn't an rpg.

@real_arktic_foxxy Год назад

I understand why YS 9 is all the way at the start of the list. The game is too amazing to be spoiled. I cannot wait for a YS 10 game that will build up on the both games or even bring the old games into a new light. Seeing Adol take on new adventures is always a joy to see. I haven't played NEO yet but I replayed the original NDS game so many times I have to get my hands on it soon too

@thatvideogamesshow Год назад

Going to be awesome to see where they take the series with the next entry!

@sisotoy9254 Год назад

Great list of Action RPGs here! I need to give Crosscode a try, as that looks really cool. I have the Witcher 3 on Switch, but barely scratched the surface of it lol. Need to try diving into that one again. My favorite ARPG on the Switch is Astral Chain. Such a sublime experience. Excellent video as always man!

@ophidianmind333 Год назад

My favorite Switch RPGs are Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster, Shin Megami Tensei V, Ys VIII, IX, & Origin, Persona 5 Royal, Sega Genesis Classics (which contains Phantasy Star II, III, & IV, Shining Force I & II, & Sword of Vermilion), the Sega Ages version of Phantasy Star, Trails from Zero, Undernauts: Labyrinth of Yomi, Planescape: Torment, Baldur's Gate I & II, Darkest Dungeon, Fire Emblem Three Houses, Langrisser I & II, Collection of Mana, Bravely Default II, Live-A-Live, Triangle Strategy, Cosmic Star Heroine, Vambrace: Cold Soul, Icewind Dale, Romancing SaGa II & III, Final Fantasy VII, VIII, IX, X, & XII, Octopath Traveler, and Dragon Quest I, II, & III. I'm sure some will read my list and wonder why the Xenoblade Chronicles games are absent, and that is only because I haven't yet played them. They look very interesting and they are on my to-play list, I recently obtained Xenoblade Chronicles III and I plan on beginning it later today so maybe that will be added to my list as well before too long (or after the 100+ hours I heard this game is 😆).

@brotbrotsen1100 Год назад

You should try out legends of mana and trials of mana remake too, i see a few crpgs so you might like pillars of eternity, divinity original sin 2 (one of the best games i ever played) and Disco elysium. Judging from your profile picture you like SMT so you could try out tokyo mirage sessions encore. Also the disgaea games might be up your alley. A game i would very much call a gem that i recently got into is 9th dawn 3, it's a indie action rpg with a open world a elder scrolls like skill progression system, a ton of equipment and even monster taming and also multiplayer even couch coop i think definitely recommend it

@ophidianmind333 Год назад

For real though, you could've cut back on those multi-plat games (that play just miles better elsewhere) and put more of the good exclusives, like astral chain for one

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 legitimately is a masterpiece.

@SpecShadow Год назад

There's Dragon's Dogma on Switch? I remember buying it on X360 (before expansion), then PS3 and then on PC. It was one of these games that are so good you get them on more than one console...
