I recently got a vita, which can only mean it’s time to play a psx rpg. I haven’t played most of the classics and, to be completely honest, I think I only started truly falling in love with JRPGs with the last few Like a Dragon games, mostly because of its characters and the hopeful vibes of the story. Having said that, I have played and enjoyed the NES Dragon Quest games and Mother 3. So, which one of these should I try?

  • Breath of Fire III
  • Breath of Fire IV
  • Grandia
  • Suikuden II
  • Tactics Ogre
  • Other game

I voted Grandia because it’s hopeful and full of whimsy. Very much feels like a Dragon Quest to me.

this is challenging. Suikoden II and Tactics Ogre are GOATs, but the others are pretty good too

Suikoden 2 is better but breath of fire iv is maybe the best looking game of all time

I voted suikoden because you should play the saturn version of grandia! (with the english patch)

My vote would be between what I voted and Suikoden II.


Started Suikoden II! I’m loving the combat system and the way recruitment works. Also, the game does a really good job in making you travel small distances back and forth to progress the story.

so i’m almost done with playing octopath 2 and i think with finishing both octopath 1 and 2, i’m going to need to start another rpg. i’m stuck between a few options and i don’t know which ones to start first.

  • Super Mario RPG Remake
  • Mario & Luigi: Brothership
  • Start on the Xenoblade series (no i’ve never played them before)
  • None of these are good options (feel free to suggest!)

feel free to help me decide!! i need a rpg that’s a big timesinker which is why i loved octopath; the grindiness helps with passing time and keeping me occupied.

I’ve picked up my Triangle Strategy save again, and have been having a blast. It can be grindy, but doesn’t have to be if you want that. I’ve found it’s fun either way. I thought of it because it has a similar style to those Octopath games.

Also, Dragon Quest is always a great option.

I played an hour of brothership and I feel like you can safely rule that one out. It’s one of those Nintendo projects that uses two paragraphs to say “hit the a button to interact” and the battle system is super simple but you also can’t just mash through it. For me it was just not compelling.

I suggest going with Xenoblade Chronicles. You can start with the first game if you value chronology. The remaster of X is coming out in a few months, too, so you can also look forward to that.

I know this is what you were going for but I really love how insulting nicknames for pro athletes and politicians are created by just inserting poop and fail words in there

I’ve really tried to like XBC. I played the whole first game (when I was younger and poorer and far less disposed to put down a game I wasn’t enjoying) and about 6 hours of XBC3. I cannot, for the life of me, find the fun in these games.
