Great selection of KZbinrs , David. I was already following must of them and adder the few I wasn’t yet. I’d also like to thank all of you for putting out great content and providing many hours of entertainment . Kudos !

[@felman87]

Awesome! I'm subbed to many of these but there are a few that I haven't heard of. I've been thumbs-upping the smaller channels, so youtube has been showing me more of them lately. Perfect for finding those hidden gems.

[@Metalders]

Don't worry about .Hack G.U. It's a far greater trilogy(quadrilogy in the remaster) than the previous saga.

[@GamingBroductions]

Thanks again for having us on! I usually try to talk more about RPGs that I’ve had a positive experience with over at our channel so it was fun to do the opposite and vent out some frustrations this time around 😅

[@davidvinc]

Thank you so much for joining in on this epic collaboration! While I too try to veer towards the positives of gaming, just like any hobby, it has its ups and downs, and it’s always good to share our frustrations!

[@GamingBroductions]

I LOVE chrono cross but i admire the sheer courage of david for putting Kid at the thumbnail with a title like this 🤣

[@MrBreakthewalls]

It has to be bait

[@JC-cb8oi]

Balls of steel.

[@richardkenan2891]

I'm not sure how anybody could be shocked about people hating Chrono Cross. It's a very controversial game, some people love it, others absolutely despise it. That's actually been the most discussed thing about the game, as far as I can tell.

[@veghesther3204]

But at the same time theirs a Reason why Chrono Cross was first chosen as its remaster its because Chrono trigger had TOO many versions of it Chrono Cross until the remaster was ONLY as a PS2 game one that never had a European version Chrono trigger is a SNES PS1 DS IOS/Android/Steam game that's why Chrono Cross was remastered first.

[@thommccarthy1139]

It's a great title story wise but just missed an opportunity to build on the OG battle system

Thanks for having me on David! Nice to see all these KZbinrs not holding anything back haha!

[@davidvinc]

Thank you so much for coming on! I’ve loved getting to know you recently and I have so much fun with our daily chats!

[@shadowmaksim]

Oh, hey Tarks. I'm just bugging you to say that I now agree with you. I remember we talked about "Akiba's Beat" at some point but I hadn't played it at the time so I couldn't say anything for sure. Just that the visuals and animations bothered me. But you did give similar complaints then so I was always curious. Since then, I have played it and...yeah. Nearly every point across the board I'm aligning with you. Even worse, I played the Vita version, which probably has some of the worst framerate issues during combat I have ever experienced in a video game. I was almost ready to give the game a pass despite all the issues until I was literally playing in 5 frames, or less, a second...repeatedly. I was doing combos out of muscle memory cause I could not make out what was even happening on screen half the time. How I managed to push myself to finish the game regardless, I don't know.

[@TheLegendarySwordMaster]

I dont like the akiba games i tried them they all sucked so yeah

[@JDHutchison]

I always love collabs like this. It’s great to see creators I’ve watched separately come together. It also helps to discover newer creators (I plan on following a couple here I’d not come across). Also - any collab between you and SupeDerek is apparently what I live for. Might I suggest putting links to their channels in the description? It might encourage traffic to their channels. Sure, we can search them, but that’s just another barrier to some. EDIT - Missed the pinned comment. My bad, you’re on top of it!

[@YoshMaster]

Wow you got Food4Dogs to appear in your video!! I LOOOOOOVE her soooo much!! She’s the grandma every gamer wish they had 💕

[@SuperSupersoda]

It was so great to see so many of my favorite JRPG youtubers coming together to do a team video. Great stuff. I've watched all of their content before, and am fans of everyone.

[@ShiroMatrix]

I feel for RPG Grandma. I just recently platinumed Dragon Sinker last month when clearing my backlog, and it definitely felt unfulfilling. She hit the nail on the head with lots of extra features that should have just been dropped, and shallow gacha mechanics.

[@fatmide]

Her channel name is Food4Dogs. I don’t think she likes being referred to as “Grandma”.

[@ShiroMatrix]

@@fatmide literally David's line after her segment: "Everyone's favorite Grandma, isn't she just the cutest?"

[@fatmide]

@@ShiroMatrix yes I know. Sorry I wasn’t blaming you - I’ve just heard her say before she doesn’t really like that.

[@GalanOfTruth]

@@fatmideyea she’s definitely said she doesn’t like it but I’m sure she understands it’s not meant as an insult at least not everyone has heard her thoughts on it

[@vagabundorkchaosmagick-use2898]

@@GalanOfTruth It doesn't matter whether it's an insult or not. She doesn't want to be called a grandma and that's it, period. You don't get to decide for her.

Ff12 has a forgettable story but unique gameplay and world. I totally understand why people say it's boring. I personally like it but it could definitely be better.

[@marcosdheleno]

people say its boring, but people also say its amazing. its almost as if, because he didnt like it, doesnt mean EVERYONE ELSE wont. so putting it here just doesnt make sense. reminds me of a youtuber that talked about animes and said code geass was trash because he didnt like it. as if that was proof of anything. is it perfect? no, but its 100% worth playing and giving it a try, what's the worst that can happen? you not like it?

[@kevinstreetgaming]

Awesome! I love Gaming Broductions. They do so many great long form videos, so it took me by surprise when I heard them in this collaboration.

[@davidvinc]

They’re so good! I knew I had to have them and I was overjoyed when they agreed!

[@SylvainGrannary]

I can't belive FF12 was there, it was one of the best rpg experience in my life and the music was absolutely amazing to me 😂. Life is tastes and differences 😊

[@karlo9572]

Music was cool, and game fun. But the characters and story was a bit off imo. It’s the only ff game I finished where I don’t remember anything about the story

[@osurpless]

@@karlo9572 Even though I’ve yet to play the International Edition that rebalances the whole experience, I haven’t played any version since the original release date. This is likely due to the perfect score from Famitsu, which really clouded my expectations, particularly after Vagrant Story got the same from the same director. The list was a lot smaller back then as well.

[@thosetwodudes]

Agreed, depending on my mood, FXII might be my favorite of all time. and the PS4 remake is totally worth it for an rpg fan that hasn't played it yet.

[@karlo9572]

@@osurpless tbh first time I played ff12 I didn’t like it at all. Because like I said story and characters was not to my liking. Especially vaan. I didn’t even like his character design. So I didn’t finish it. Then years after when zodiac age came out I though I have finished every ff game even 13 and not this one. I picked it up on ps4 and thought it was really fun. I like that battle system more than the action type they had in 15.

[@sadmarinersfan8935]

12 is a favorite of mine too but I get it’s not for everyone

[@DrewDragoon]

One of the best videos you've ever done David, the collaboration efforts are extremely interesting hearing differing opinions and experiences. I hope you do more of this type of content

[@KrsJin]

Fun video, even if I am physically upset over XII being mentioned 😡😅 These collabs my favorite creators are doing warm my heart man. Thanks for doing this.

[@bigdaddy5864]

She regretted it - but finished it, lol. Ok. If FFXII is the biggest regret of your JRPG purchase history, you ain't bought many.

[@35infinite]

My reaction to seeing FFXII was *slaps hand on table* THANK YOU! 😂

[@MyNameIsBucket]

If her favorite part of FFXII was the bubbly shota who acted older than his age, well... let's just say she was NOT the target audience. It was not made for the Onegai Teacher crowd, even after the executive meddling.

[@HallowedBeThyGame]

I was sad to see FFXII make the list haha 😂 Thanks so much David for having me on!

[@davidvinc]

Thank you so much for being here and coming to the premiere too!! It was a blast!

[@TheLegendarySwordMaster]

Yeah i dont like nights of Azure at all they both sucked really hard

[@NukeA6]

FFXII is an acquired taste although it is easier to come back to after finishing Xenoblade Chronicles.

[@riplix20]

@@NukeA6Agreed, she said she only put 40 hours in for the story. If you’re rushing story the games like 20 hours with cutscenes, if you want to 100% the game.. well the current speedrun world record is about 24 hours, and they use the 4x speed up the entire time while knowing exactly what to do, how to cheese the game and skipping every cutscene. Tldr. So. Much. Game. 40 hours she musta rushed the story and not well

[@malik87breaker]

@@Filthycasual17actually is very belowed. It’s just up to your taste

[@toothfairy7765]

Most of these choices are games that I remember very fondly (Chrono Cross, FFXII, Unlimited SaGa, & .hack) and it’s the sole reason for me to strive not to see RPG’s along with its unconventional storytelling under a clinical lens, which would in turn compartmentalize my viewpoint of the genre altogether.

[@lipsontajgordongrunk4328]

Agreed a lot of these choices are borderline nonsensical mostly because they just don’t fit the status quo of a stereotypical JRPG.

[@mattyg69ification]

Nailed it with "everybody's taste is a bit different" because FF12 is one of my favorites in the entire FF series. But we all experience a game differently. And that damn Zodiac Spear was a lowblow in the PS2 release, I'm sure we can ALL agree on that. Who doesn't open up chests? Nobody walks past a chest especially at the beginning of the game.

[@BacklogBattle]

Loved seeing everyone in this video! Thanks for having me on and I'm happy to see everyone share their gaming regrets as well!

[@davidvinc]

I was so happy to have you on! Thank you so much for your contribution, even if I do secretly love beyond the beyond! Lol

[@TheLegendarySwordMaster]

Hey backlog wassup bro ^^

[@blackdragongrief]

Great video David! Love seeing you all come together to touch on something we've all felt the pain of on occasion. Out of the games mentioned here I'd have to say Unlimited Saga is definitely one I agree with. Also as a huge Lunar fan I'm sure I'd say the same the same thing about Lunar: Dragon Song if I had bought it.

[@MiamiSunrise]

First of all this is a great video with a lot of awesome creators, well done David. Beyond the Beyond was mentioned and I (at least on the surface) may have to go with that too. For only one reason. The INSANE encounter rate. Had that not been the case I would have definitely loved that game but constant random battles after 1 or 2 steps was just a controller thrower for me. I have tried to start and play through that game on 3 separate occasions and the encounter rate always stopped me.

[@markh5572]

What I like about this video is that you added your own thoughts between videos. It makes it much better than when others do just a compilation of different people.

[@annamolitoris2012]

Nice collab video! I really enjoyed the first .hack and the .hack//gu series, but I rented the first series and then later bought its final volume as a used copy. I can understand the youtuber's regret though because it was like buying expansions/dlc of a game for the full price of a game each time. And the expansion only containing maybe 20 to 30 hours of content. It still was a great fake mmo for those whose internet connection was poop at the time!

[@brianboadway120]

Agreed! Those games all just clicked with me. And at first I didn't want anything to do with the series until I gave it a try. Now I love them so much! Yes it took a lot of research to understand the story but once you do it is very enjoyable!

[@TheKisekiNut]

Records of Agarest war is such a shame. It has a decent concept of story arcs split into generations. I actually hope more games do something like it. I get it would be SUPER complicated in the story writing and coding side. But it's such fun idea.

[@sHART1780]

I LOVE Chrono Cross and I only played it for the first time a couple of years ago. One of my favorite games of all time.

[@mcm426]

[@Imozart0341I]

The music was fantastic for 12, the reason I was sucked in was because of FFT and Vagrant Story. All three had the same director

[@osurpless]

Likewise for me. Ogre Battle is kind of a miss for me as well, what with its indirect player control of battles.

[@edmundblackadder2741]

This is great I would definitely like to see more of these colabs they are really insightful when hearing everyone’s reasons with their choices

[@StarDragonJP]

I bought Unlimited Saga on clearance for 5$ at Gamestop, & I still kinda regret it. I knew it was terrible but wanted to try it out myself. I still kept it though for collection purposes though because I like the SaGa series.

[@anima_96x7]

This is definitely a great video that offers so many great perspectives from JRPG gamers / creators. I’m in the same boat with Lady Pelvic when it comes to FFXII, as it’s one of the weaker games I’ve played from the mainline FF series from a character standpoint. As for my own regret as an RPG / JRPG gamer, it comes courtesy of getting a little too hyped over Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a pretty deep game for an n64 release and one of the very few RPGs on the system. That said, the movement speed of the units made the game such a bore to me and the fatigue system only weighed everything down further. I’m a retro gamer at my core and I had played the wonderful Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen beforehand and was happy to see that it got a non Tactics Ogre follow up, only for the hype to go out the window after seeing the muddy n64 graphics and getting tired from the slower pacing. I honestly wish Person of Lordly Caliber would get a remaster / remake, cuz I believe if the graphics were improved and the speed and fatigue systems were tweaked that I would give it a better examination thru reappraisal. Until then, getting too overhyped for it remains my biggest regret as an RPG gamer, especially after playing the grueling beauty that is March of the Black Queen.

[@thesporkguy]

Amazing Video David, wonderful to see so many of our favorite faces under one wondefully positive roof! Btw, my biggest regret is selling ALL of my old RPG strategy guides when I thought I was "done" with them(beating one playthrough)and thinking I'd never want to browse them again or that heaven forbid, they'd ever be worth a damn thing... Hello my name is WRONG, how are you? XD

[@HybridAngelZero]

I'm sure I've mentioned it before in the comments, but my big regret is pre-ordering Sonic Chronicles on DS. I love Sonic, and at the time Bioware was a very well-regarded RPG developer. In my mind, this was gonna do for Sonic what Mario RPG did for the famous plumber. It even scored 8~9/10 in most magazines! But what I got was a janky mess that felt like an unfinished beta. Also, I remember almost buying White Night Chronicles back then. My mom chimed in and recommended I put the money down to pre-order a game I had been wanting to get instead, so I listened to her. Glad I did, can't beat mother's intuition xD

[@LegendofBamBam]

This is good. More of this. Hearing you react to other KZbinr opinions is what puts it over the top.

[@JC-cb8oi]

David, this was so well done. I commented before about negativity but this was a fun list and I really like how you responded to each portion with your own take to round things out. Kudos!

[@davidvinc]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@offdutyenglishmajor9924]

I've got one for you: The Longest Five Minutes. The premise is that you and your party start off fighting the final boss, but in the last five minutes of the battle, your character is hit with amnesia. The rest of your party is trying to help you remember who you are. You play the game in flashbacks so you can remember certain moves and whatnot. I thought that this was such a neat idea, especially thinking that maybe you would create your own unique hero with the choices you make. Nope. It's mostly a visual novel with lackluster visuals. Buying equipment doesn't matter. Fights don't matter (you even get a move to allow you to repel monsters so you can quickly get through dungeons), and the only fight that had even a bit of strategy was the final boss, but that was after suffering through a story I really did not care for. It wasn't that expensive, at least.

[@Bimmy.Hendrix]

Whoa, epic JRPG KZbinr super-collab! And on my birthday, too! Great video, David! That was a lot of fun, and I even discovered some new KZbinrs to subscribe to! ♥️

@@davidvinc Thanks! 😄🥳

[@jamessnedeker4799]

Conception II: Children of the Seven Stars was my biggest regret. I couldn't even tell you if the gameplay is good or not - the second you start 'breeding' with likely underage girls, I felt so uncomfortable, I wiped the game immediately from my Vita. But a very fun video - I'm not familiar with most of these creators and will have to check them out.

[@Cuprite1024]

Yeah, I haven't touched the game, but the mere concept feels weird af to me.

[@Morraak]

Love the Gaming Broductions channel, they have some of the best long form videos. My greatest disappointment would probably be Digimon World 2. Although it had turn based battles whereas the first did not, it felt too closed off. The game felt like you were underground most of the time instead of the open world like the first game.

[@silver924]

I didn't have regretts buying any RPG, because I'm a collector...so..yea..but if I could name one RPG, which crushed my expectations, this would be Unlimited Saga

[@Alfazil]

Mine was Star Ocean 5. I had such high hopes that I pre-ordered it.

[@joseolivas5396]

Wow what a crossover and what delight of video this was! All this channels I've seen all around together! You've got quite a great friend list!

[@NirvanaPhoenix]

I'd love to see an in-person collab between you and Lady Pelvic or Food4Dogs. I can see you and Pelvic trying to compete on who would wear the best vest top, and the gay+grandma combo of you and F4D would be too wholesome, wearing chunky knit jumpers and talking about Ni no Kuni or something.

[@AngelofAmbrosia]

Omg I was excited for this because this gave me people to follow who I haven’t heard of much. Thanks! Y’all should do another one. Maybe something like “a game that surprised me” or “a game I revisited and now love.”

[@RPGFort]

This was a great watch, an absolute rogue's gallery of guests!

[@Equ3strianGam3r]

I'm currently playing Dragon Sinker myself on the Switch. I bought it on sale digitally and I'm really enjoying it but, I guess not everybody is going to have the same reaction. I've beaten the main game and I'm trying to finish up the post-game quests. I do recommend it if you like the old school Super Nintendo RPG's.

[@animesoul479]

I enjoyed Agarest War, but the difficulty spike was obnoxious (looking at you King Midas -_-). Also getting on the true ending route was impossible without a guide.

[@gornothdragnbone5898]

This was a great video David ^^ I liked that you would chime in after every person's critique!

[@SuiteLifeofDioBrando]

My biggest regret is sticker star. It taught me that preordering can be a gamble.

[@3rdAgeSoap]

What a cross-over! Knew all of the tubers here except for Lady Pelvic so I'll have to check her out. So cool seeing Xygor on here too, his videos are stellar.

[@st.anselmsfire3547]

I liked Chrono Cross, but it's the best example of how more isn't always better. Way too many characters, most of whom aren't very well developed at all, and some of the best characters are hidden behind plot walls that you'll never see if you're actually role playing a hero. And then there's the baffling plot and confusing connections to the previous game. There are a lot of good ideas in this game, but it really loses itself in the execution.

[@marcosdheleno]

i never got the complaint about too many characters. i always saw the game as kind of there's no hero, everyone can step up and do it, and while majority is there just to fill seats, enough characters do get developed to make that complaint moot. as for the execution again, its an experimental square enix jrpg, far from being the first or last.

[@SBaby]

2:45 - Unlimited SaGa's biggest problem is that it basically forces you to rely almost entirely on RNG. There's little to no strategy involved, and any guide for it is useless or worse, because no two situations are going to be the same at any point in the story. And it goes against everything that is the basis for the SaGa series.

[@dreezy2085]

It was cool to see some familiar faces in this. Just want to say I'm one of the few that loved Unlimited SaGa. Enough to play through all the characters lol. Still waiting on that remaster. Though SaGa Frontier 2 better come out first.

[@laowhy86]

This was an excellent idea, David

[@tomderry7295]

Yes Lady Pelvic! Ff12, the only thing I remember about 12 is Fran, and that it water 120 hrs of my life. Honestly, the one I would regret the most would be FF8. The game really turned me off from just instantly buying Square RPGs. Enough so that I still have not played 9 because of it. It just left a very sour taste in my mouth.

[@resellingwithjon]

Please don’t let the trash that is FF8 keep you from enjoying FF9 which for many is the best in the series.

[@Mjblazer84]

My biggest regret doesn't center on one game, but rather a system. I was a Nintendo kid and never gave other systems a second thought. When the PS1 came out, I had an N64 not knowing that it was going to be terrible for playing RPG's and that PS1 was where it was at. I completely missed growing up with that system and just held out w/ the 64 hoping they'd get around to cranking them out. Since I didn't keep up with gaming news, I had no idea what was going on behind the scenes.

[@kosmosfan01]

Man, imagine getting Quest 64 instead of FFVII 😆 Makes me glad I moved on to becoming a PS owner after getting the PS2 and never looking back with basically only having Nintendo handhelds that allow for awesome RPGs on the go.

[@jaretco6423]

At least u got Paper Mario. That's an good one.

[@stilelits]

1:55 i felt the same way about FFXII, although i'm willing to cut it some slack, and say it might be because i skipped all the cutscenes...but that only gets it a LITTLE bit of slack, because a good game should make me not WANT to skip the cutscenes! in my case, not only did the villain not know who i was, i didn't even know who HE was until the final battle...still have no idea what his evil plan was, or why it was so important to stop him

[@redstratus97]

My regret by far is Final Fantasy 3 for the DS. Oh you can choose any job class for your characters. Yeah just choose one. Go ahead. 10 hours later. Wrong choice!!! Ha ha ha!!! You now have to grind with the choice you were supposed to make which will delay your progress for several hours. I was done after that. Poor design. Sold it for Final Fantasy 4 for the DS. Much better game!

[@loganhayse8771]

That is one flaw in ff3. There's a few points where you have to shrink or require a certain class like Dark Knight that could split.

[@ShrimplessScampi]

Got that game on the DS as a Christmas gift the year at came out and stopped playing before the end of the holiday break. It’s been so long but I remember whatever system they used for magic…I wasn’t a fan of either. I’m looking forward to trying the pixel remaster on switch…maybe now that I’m older I’ll fare better

[@loganhayse8771]

@@ShrimplessScampi I like the pixel remaster over the ds version tbh

[@resellingwithjon]

I’m playing this game right now for the first time and I gotta say that I am not having this issue. Yes it’s tough in spots and early on you do need to level up a bit before proceeding through each new area, but I haven’t yet felt like I made the wrong decision. And I actually like that throughout the game there are sections that are better suited for certain classes because it requires a bit of problem solving instead of just lazily steamrolling your way through like in almost every other RPG where you can just get OP. At worst you come to a boss and you’ve got to swap up your classes a bit and grind for like a half hour before proceeding, then you can swap back if you want.

[@redstratus97]

@@resellingwithjon the grinding was waaaaay more then 30 mins. Waaaay more. It’s also possible you made better decisions then I did. My progress came to a screeching halt 10 hours in. And after grinding a bit and seeing my slow progress I gave up. That being said, I do wonder if the Pixel remaster may have fixed this issue or made it not as bad compared to the original and DS version? I wonder.

[@human22265]

Awesome video :D Interesting to hear everyone's choices and reasonings. Thank you! Have a good day, David :)

[@rudidellama3718]

Definitely some controversial picks here and there lol. Mine is probably a controversial one and is Suikoden V, I really wanted to like but not only was a slog to play but the story was very bland to the point of making me bored, is one of the few games that I got really far into to just drop. I think I dropped around the 50 hours, and from the guide I think there were at least 15 more to see the credits, maybe one day I look for some youtube videos to at least how it ends, because no way I'll be playing again lol

Some of those are games with stories that inspired me to write. I know these are your opinions and I respect them. I just felt weird watching this and saying to myself "what was wrong with that game?" But to each their own and I love hearing people talking about games

[@BrandoB2557]

First game regret that popped into my head? Star Ocean, the third one. The twist at the end was so bad, it didn't *just* ruin everything I'd done in the game. It managed to ruin everything I'd done in Star Ocean: The Second Story (a game I loved).

[@gamelover2222]

Same Brandon. Such a sour surprise.

[@xxJing]

I loved the twist and I love that people hate it because its a plot twist that literally gave a portion of the audience an existential crisis. From a philosophical point of view it's brilliant, especially because the audience had such a big investment into the world beforehand.

Chrono Cross is absolutely amazing. Not nearly as good as Chrono Trigger of course (few games are) but still a great game. The story surrounding Kid, the continuation of the lives of Crono, Lucca, and Marle is very nice. The side stories are entertaining, deep, and varied. The combat mechanics are cool, simple, and rewarding. The soundtrack is LEGENDARY. Ultimately, the game's story is an emotional rollercoaster; I laughed, I cried, I smiled, I was mad as hell, and not necessarily in that order, lol. It was a very compelling story. The only criticism of the game I have is the inability to control the camera: a result of how the developers set up the maps, as well as the data storage limitations of the discs themselves.

This was awesome!!! I’m a big fan of Davidvinc’s channel and all the others that contributed. My JRPG regret? “Time and Eternity”, I was looking forward to it pre-release because of it’s 2D Hand-Drawn animation. The story seemed interesting in synopsis. It was so bad that when I brought my PS3 in for a repair & forgot the disc was inside, and when I got the PS3 back and the game disc was not with it, I didn’t mind in the slightest…

Your hate for chrono cross has to stop, that game is not your ex

[@KT1459]

Lol

[@alucardsfate9504]

I do not trust anyone with hate for Chrono Cross.

[@OlafTheBerserker]

Chrono Cross is boring. The combat system is lame and hardly works as intended. It's also clunky and ugly. Damn game runs at like 2 FPS

[@wtfsamusidk7574]

Love cross

[@veghesther3204]

Same here but I only hated the 3 .hack GU games NOT infection to quarantine but since Quarantine still costs MORE then a PS5 those 4 .hack games really NEED A PS4 PS5 Switch port its 20th year anniversary for those 4 .hack games was LAST year but the games still never left the PS2 Era YET.

[@murkywaters5502]

A great idea and a marvelous collaboration! Thank you for helping put all this together, and ultimately, bringing everyone together, creators and viewers alike!

[@realdoomsdaybeast]

Every Final Fantasy after 10 was basically a waste of time. The soul of the game has been gone and has become the standard money grab.

[@Rod_Silva]

Omg yes @Davidvinc more of these, please! I know it's not possible to have these colab videos every week but if there's one person that can make them quite often this person would be YOU! Great job! Amazing job!

[@dovahkiin5902]

LETS GO! So many people rave about how they love FF12 I HATED 12. I've tried several times and never been able to bring myself to beat it. I genuinely don't see what positives anyone can see in the game.

[@degapalgamer3772]

Thus vid was pretty sick, it was so cool seeing so many KZbinrs that I watch come together in one video.

[@jonathany6359]

David, this was a brilliant video, and I was so happy to see you and the JRPG KZbin Judges weigh in!

[@peacockfilletsteak]

The Chrono Cross slander pains me. One of my favorite games ever! lol But every game isn't for everybody, and I do understand his perspective. But man do I love Chrono Cross!

[@WillieDC28]

Watching this and hearing Tark talk on Akiba's Beat with my exact issues with that game. I couldn't agree more with him but in my mind I think it has its little charms here and there. Was actually considering reviewing the game since I finished it last year. But great video!

[@ricksandstorm]

FF 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 for the PS1 was mine. At the time I didnt know that the FF games would be remade on every system available in a few years + the impression I had was that there would be 3D cutscenes scattered throughout the game. Not just 1 before the game starts.

[@mushroomlena]

What a fantastic video! I found so many new channels to follow. And I’m SO happy you had Britta from Food4Dogs on to talk. She is incredible and so knowledgeable about jrpgs!!

[@JosephJohnson-gu5fw]

Unlimited saga was the weirdest disappointment of my life and probably the only game that I never was able to figure out how to actually play it

[@Aitaitaitai]

Awesome video David! It’s so cool you were able to get together the best group of creators for this, so many different opinions. I did sink a lot of time into Record of Agarest War though… lol

[@footballfav01]

That was great! Would love to see more like it with discussion amongst a group. Debating ff6 vs CT or something where everyone has a hot take to share on a classic.

[@akabancopop]

This was a great idea, well done.

[@gaignum792]

What a great idea to bring all these great creators together. Awesome.

[@Maximusbyronus]

This was a fun video! So glad someone mentioned Beyond the Beyond. That tops my list of gaming regrets too. Stupid me, back in 1996 I chose Beyond the Beyond over Suikoden I based on the box art, doh! As a kid with no money, and the nearest decent gaming store was 100km away, I was stuck with it.

[@aroundthefur1210]

What a great video David and company! Love your videos and especially love that you are still rocking Searching for Friends! My favorite VGM track ever.

[@YokosoOtaku]

Fun video! Really cool to showcase so many other creators!

[@R3GARnator]

I really appreciate videos like this, because the culture surrounding enjoying JRPGs in the west often wears a pair of rose tinted glasses. In reality, just like all forms of media, sturgeon's law applies.

[@jeffereykizior1605]

What a fun video, I love to collabs, and the guests! 🎉🎉🎉

[@lilchappy223]

Great collab, would love to see more in the future. I was already subbed to more than Half the channels involved and took the time to sun to the rest. Looking forward to seeing everyone’s content!

[@karnotik]

Balthier can carry FFXII on his sexiness alone.

[@CelestialNerd336]

I was already stoked that the LadyPelvic collab finally happened, but seeing everyone else file in really made my evening.
