CRAP! I didn't see this thread. I just made my own, relating to this subject. Yeah, JRPG's are so slow paced I just can't take it anymore, I barley made it through FF13(lucky its story hooked me, if not drug me for needless hours)

Honestly though if you want a good JRPG recommendation you have to say what you like in a plot and gameplay. Like WRPGs all JRPGs are not the same.

WRPG>...>Rhythm/Music Games>JRPG

I think people are forgetting that there's a lot of sh*t WRPGs as well.

Mature, adult oriented plot with complex turn based gameplay.

Saga Frontier II
Final Fantasy Tactics
Vagrant Story
Parasite Eve

I know they're older games but that's mostly because I stopped playing most JRPG's after KOTOR.

^I go along with the FFT and VS recs.



...Hm...I'd also suggest Suikoden Tactics though that is more of a shakey on the mature side (it is about a war however and I love the strategic combat).

Square Enix is hit or miss lately, but they've made some gems recently (Crisis Core, Birth By Sleep, and Dragon Quest 9 for example).

Now Atlus, THAT company is living proof that JRPGs are not dead.  The SMT and Persona games are among the best I've ever played.

[Da_Lion_Man]

Ever tried Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga or Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner?

I really enjoy those games.

I also enjoy playing Dragon Quest and Pokémon. So light and kind of shallow, but that just makes it so entertaining.
Nier is also a pretty good one. And Demon's Souls is pretty good too, though not a JRPG pur sang.

I like both WRPGs and JRPGs, versatility FTW...

I know there are differences, but the underlying gamplay is practically the same. I guess I was going to get burned out of it anyway. Shooters are getting old on me now also. Halo: Reach really went all out on the story so they kinda drew me back in for now, Medal of Honor helped me stay interested(sure it has it's faults, but it was the first shooter in its genre in years with a decent original story. Battlefield excluded, it's more of a comedic story game IMHO

[Busomjack]

If you're looking for a great Japanese developed shooting game that feels unique you should try Vanquish. I seriously cannot get enough of that game. I have beaten it 6 times.

[Teddie Sage]

The only rare JRPGs I'm playing right now are the M-rated ones, Persona series, SMTs and stuff like that. Other than that, I play 90 classics. My guilty pleasure though? Pokémon... *facepalm* I only play it on the road or something. Less boring when you had nothing else to do for 30 or so minutes, from where I live to the city. Should I say that TWEWY was also one of the last greatest JRPGs on DS? The other ones were meh... Though I enjoyed Dragon Quest 5 but not the 9th installment. I'm a bit picky when it comes to JRPGs. I hate playing 'em if the characters have annoying, screechy, ear tearing voices. Flonne, I'm staring at you, b*tch! Pretty much any new JRPGs coming from NIS America are total trash. I loved Disgaea because it was cool and fun back then, but now this is becoming ridiculous. I'd say, I'd rather have JRPGs with continental/political issues like Suikoden series (strike the 4th) or Xenogears than the whole "Saving the World" scenario that comes so much in the other games I play and people usually hate. People who grew with SNES and PSX era pretty much can affirm that the 90's were the JRPG's golden age. Now it's time for WRPG to show people in the world how evolution is important in gaming.

It's interesting... I am the biggest supporter of JRPG's, and the ones from the golden age of the 90's (Final Fantasy 6, Chrono Trigger, etc.) influenced my game design, but at the same, the last JRPG I beat in this DECADE was Lost Odyssey. In that time, I've completed Dragon Age, Fallout 3, Oblivion, Fable 2, and Mass Effect, and other WRPG's.

Save for Lost Odyssey, the last JRPG I loved, and beat was Final Fantasy 9. I was 19 at the time. This was right before I was introduced to Baldur's Gate. So, maybe there is some correlation between age and the particular styles of RPG's?

All of that said, I still maintain that "someone" can release a game that blends all of the best parts of both genres together. To me, Dragon Age 2 is getting damn close. Maybe WRPG's can perhaps get some epic music for once? I heard Nobuo Uematsu is looking for work.

[Moondoggie]

On the subject of JRPG's anyone liking the look of Catherine? It's from Koei and looks brilliant.

[I Valente I]

You might be playing the wrong ones op. I look at jrpgs like wii games. 99 percent shovel ware, but when there's a good one, it's gold. I look at lost odyssey, tales of vesperia and others.

You know, this is what I have been trying to tell people all this time.  Square/Enix should outsource development of FInal Fantasy XV to Bioware and Bioware should only bring in the talent of a few notable people who were involved with the series while handling most of the design themselves.

Atlus is developing Catherine.  Probably the best JRPG developer/publisher right now.

Seconded. Final Fantasy should never be made by westerners ever.

You guys still trust Square/Enix after Final Fantasy XIV?  Makes me wonder what it would take for them to actually lose your trust.

Outsourcing Final Fantasy to a western studio would do it

We don't need cheese ball "interactive" romances and a dialog wheel in JRPG's. We just need a bit of a change in direction.

It looks so disturbing that I want to try it.

Oh by the way... Anyone tried Nier yet? Quite different from the usual JRPG you'd get your hands on, lately.
