I am entertained that the Drakengard series is starting to be seen as the offshoot of NieR instead of the other way around. My other fun fact about that series is that Yoko Taro claims everything he's written for it is cannon. Which includes Tokyo Musical Theatre, and that time 2B and 9S teamed up with Final Fantasy's Warrior of Light and some random dwarves to save another world through a showdown against the Watchers in a digital recreation of Tokyo.
@Aquylion5555Ай бұрын
And one could argue that the Final Fantasy XIV x YoRHa crossover directly leads into Drakengard 3, as the teleportation of Norvrandt's digital recration of Tokyo might actually become the Cathedral City in Drakengard. As we saw in NieR Re[in]carnation, the Moon Server has some data from Final Fantasy XIV's world, which could only come from the City that was sent from FFXIV's world to another one at the end of the crossover.

You are going to keep getting more recommendations for additional JRPGs to cover, so of course I'm going to contribute a few as well! Ar Tonelico (and Ar No surge) - The three games of Ar Tonelico all are part of a connected storyline, focusing on a different miles-tall tower after a world destroying calamity. There is a heavy visual novel style focus on the inner emotional struggles of the magic wielding heroines, called Reyvateil. Ar Nosurge is more of a spiritual sequel with an unconnected storyline, but may be a prequel to the original trilogy. Neptunia (five mainline games, over a dozen spinoffs) - A fictionalized telling of the Console Wars era of real world gaming, featuring a protagonist based on a never-completed Sega console called the Neptune. The franchise as a whole focuses more on metatextual jokes about video games and RPGs than on any deep narrative through line.

Disappointed that SaGa is not included because that franchise deserves its flowers for being one of the earliest JRPGs to have a non linear gameplay structure. SaGa was THE original JRPG with multiple protags with Romancing Saga long before Octopath was a thing. It is still doing well since Romancing SaGa 2 is getting a 3D remake soon and SaGa Emerald Beyond just came out too.

Chrono Trigger will probably always be my favorite game of all time, no other game gave me the same enjoyment and feels like it did, like when we first get to Zeal, a whole group of floating continents from 12,000 B.C, and then hearing corridors of time, that moment is still stuck in my head, or when we first get to the overworld of 600 ad and hear wind scene, or when Frog (my favorite character in the game) split a mountain in half. Honestly I just love this game, from the idea of time travel and how well they utilized it, to the amazing soundtracks, to the characters, just everything about it honestly

Phantasy Star has a feeling I miss. It is false science fiction like star wars and they managed to balance it pretty well back in the day. I am not a fan of hard core science fiction and the type of threats it brings. It is science fantasy and you get to travel in space and go in villages that aren't filled with futuristic stuff that can have problems with the dark magician that obeys a new dark religion. That is very unique and every people who experience PSIV fall in love with the game

Pokemon was in the first video, and as noted in that one, there really isn't much to say about it in this format. Basically everyone who has had spent more than a couple days on the internet and/or had some part of their childhood land somewhere in the past 25+ years probably has a passable enough understanding of Pokemon to make talking about in this minute or less quick overview style completely moot. I would *love* to see a dedicated video on the games/franchise at-large from someone who loves JRPGs but isn't fully inside the Pokemon content creator bubble though, since nearly everything Pokemon-related on here seems to come from channels almost solely dedicated to the series.
