I grew up playing Dark Cloud and Dark Cloud 2, I remember having a folder packed to the brim with printed out Game FAQ guides for building weapons, finding inspiration picture locations, item farming areas, and guides to the golfing mini game. God seeing it on your list has made me so nostalgic for the game.

I specifically sought out games with 2d graphics. They got rarer and rarer. I use to get Gamepro magazine, would go right to the rpg section and look at the little thumb nail sized pictures. Think the last one I got from that method was Tales of Destiny. I’m 38 now. Just cleaned my ps2 laser and booted up ToD using an hdmi converter.

The fact Dark Cloud never had a #3 still hurts my heart. The weapon leveling system was golden. Exploring all possible paths for every weapon was addictive. The amount of stuff to do in #2 was crazy! Finny Frenzy was great, and the Golf mode was stupid fun and challenging to 100%.

@@AntwaineHorton It's quite unique in its mechanics. Exploration is done in a side-scrolling view. The battles take place on a separate screen where your party shares a gauge for every possible action. So it's neither a traditional turn-based RPG (where everyone acts after another) nor a SRPG/TRPG with a grid. Just look at some gameplay videos to see it yourself because it's really hard to explain.

I remember Xenogear. It was my childhood days where walkthroughs were actually sold in the form of books. My bro and I didn't have the attention span of listening to stories. That or we simply didn't care. And after playing it again on the emulator, I found it to be very deep. The combat of that game was phenomenal. Combos, and mechs with their fuel intake? It was a match made in heaven. They tried to combine the Xenogear and Saga Frontier into a brainchild called Xenosaga. And while the game did win some points for me in the 1st and 2nd game, the story and characters suddenly twisted on the 3rd. As for Dark Cloud 2, I remember that when I was still in high school. The good old days when games had their charm.

Golden Sun doesn't have good graphics, at least for characters, who are the most important to me. The rest is good but it doesn't deserve to be here. There are many better looking GBA RPGs. GS's graphics actually represent precisely the experimental 2.5d mindset that was notorious over the mid to late 90s probably in order to show the "next level" of 2d graphics. But never managed to surpass plain sprite 2d graphics when its well done. That was a 90s drama but that was revived in the GBA because it was pretty capable for those graphics. And sadly it ended up getting filled up with games with those type of graphics.

Funnily enough, my brother who bought the game actually intended to buy Growlanser 5 as per the disk's cover, but we got Growlanser 3 instead. Since we were just snot-nosed brats back then, we didn't think too much of it and holy moly, the game is way absolutely fantastic!

Legend of Kartia, Rebus. 1998.) - Growlanser III: The Dual Darkness (2001) - Tales of Eternia (2000. PS1 release. Not the same as PS2 Tales of Destiny 2 (2002).) - Shining Force 1: The Legacy of Great Intention & II (Two games. 1992 & 1993.) Honourable Mentions: - Lost Kingdoms (aka. Rune. 2002.) - Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis (2001. SRPG.) --- Notes: Kartia, Growlanser III and two Shining Force titles are SRPGs. Erick wants both Growlanser III and Tales of Eternia to get remakes with proper voice acting. Eternia had a PSP remaster but no new voice acting. At #1 spot, he also recommends Shining Force CD (1994 Sega CD). It's a remake of Shining Force Gaiden 1 (1992) and II: (1993).

Yes. Square Enix, please give Treasure of the Rudra the Live A Live treatment. Tinker the encounter rate and the Mantra creation, which are the only things you need to improve to make this game a GOAT. Story, music, WORLD MAP (give me back my world maps, please!!), it is a true jewel and I can't thank Aeon Genesis enough for having made that stellar fan translation. And Growlancer games and Tales of Eternia are some of the best games out there. And yes, I do agree too with the dubs. Was fortunate enough to find undub ROM versions, and what a difference that was! Wished Wild Arms 3 were on this list, since that is another game that has aged really well. Same can be said of Alter Code F (WA1's remaster). Wish whoever has the IP for Wild Arms 2 remasters that game. For it is arguably THE best Wild Arms. It's just the graphics the one thing that did not aged well, but even so, for that particular game of the series, I'm willing to overlook it.

Didn't enjoy FF7 all that much, and I stopped playing FF8 around disc 2 or 3 cause I couldn't push myself any further. But I have many fond memories of FF9. Was a whole lot of fun, in my opinion. Later on, I would notice a trend that I enjoyed FF games that were heavy on the fantasy elements, and didn't like the ones taking place in modern/sci-fi looking settings like FF7 and FF8. As it stands, my top five FF games are Tactics, 5, 9, 11, and 14. If i had to only pick the numbered FF games, 3 would replace Tactics.

Yeah, I think the late gen 16-bit and 32-bit 2D games have definitely aged a lot better, in general, than the early 3D games with blurry textures and low res graphics. Sprites are still lower in resolution than modern 2D, but stylization, art direction, and a little imagination can overcome this a lot more easily than looking at a clumsily animated pile of 3D triangles. Yoshi's Island is another game that springs to mind for aging extremely well. Not to say modern 2D hasn't advanced - It is cool to see what modern 2D games can do with things like dynamically lit sprites, live 2D, and HD resolutions.

And 16 bits is a generation that has very decent and satisfying audio quality. Just below 32 bits of course... but good enough, and more importantly a big progression from 8 bits audio. The good composers managed to do a lot of good stuff in it, that genuinely aged very well. Not speaking from nostalgia here. So that's also a great reinforcement to the timeless status of some those games that aged nicely.

So im playing Chrono Cross for the first time in 20+ years. Long story short i got it the day it released, completed about 75% of it, then had my playstation and memory cards stolen. So far im blown away. Its beautiful and the gameplay is unique without being overwhelming. It took me WAY to long, but im glad im finally taking another shot. edit: couldnt agree more about Shing Force. One of my all time favorite series and a HUGE part of my childhood.

Someone noticed Eternia. Still waiting for a Director's cut remake of it for years now. This is the most ambitious Tales game in terms of world building and content.

Tales of Eternia is one of the game where you feel the world is really big, exploring the world and city feel so satisfying

@@kleberson777 Eternia is the most expanded world there is in a tales game, nothing can top it. Two planets TWO PLANETS! Lmao that includes sky and underwater exploration and the outer ring area on both planets perspective. Also if you visit the voice options you'll notice that there's an unused skill name of Reid that never use in the game, if memory serves me right it's "dragon spiral hammer/swarm".

No need of a remake, just a new port. Only TOD needed one because it aged badly compared to the others. TOP PS1 was made after TOD and was more advanced.

@@carlosaugusto9821 It can benefit on the director's cut direction tho. Even demon souls didn't need a remake but they did as well as Shadow of thr colossus. Also i already have the PSP port of it and a digital version on my PS vita and PS4 PS1 classic.

A guy once told me in the comment section that Yggdra Union didn't sell well. I can't fully remember why but I do know that sale is part of it. I still disagree with that person. But still, I do wanna talk to that person again here for a different topic. Its always good to have discussion in Erick's comment section despite it being positive or not.

Its not a jrpg but one of my favorite hidden gems is a game called Chaos Legion. Its stupidly edgie and screams "made in 2000's cool" but it also a lot of fun to laugh at while the gameplay holds up sorta well.

Why do I visualize WaLuigi right now? That aside, I'd recommend: Rogue Galaxy (if you like Dark Cloud) Golden Sun (1 story in 2 GBA games) Radiant Historia (more modern, ds + 3ds remake, but it's got an interesting time travel mechanic)
