Honorable mention: Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age - Definitive Edition

[@jethiliusavalar6449]

It's weird that it isn't here

[@jo-lethal2792]

Fr I spent so much time on that game. Then I got sad once it was over.

[@Red4350]

Literally better than anything on that list...

[@jethiliusavalar6449]

@@Red4350 oh shit, a powder keg comment

[@twinsenjo8345]

​@@Red4350 not sure about that, I prefer the combat in Octopath 2. Though I prefer the story overall in DQ11

[@michelletackett9489]

The Xenoblade series is the greatest RPG experience I've personally ever had. All 3 games are close to perfection, and the DLC content is icing on an already yummy cake.

[@theprogm7882]

Highly disagree, I am playing xeno2 now almost at the end, and I got to say aldho I really love and enjoy the story and characters, the combat is really clunky and slow, still love the game but deffo not for its combat system, wil be playing xeno3 when I beat this one, I hope it’s better

[@ACey96]

I came over to it today after playing Trails Through Daybreak And I just couldn't stand the NPC dialogue Maybe I'm spoiled after the trails series npc dialogue is top notch So instead I'm playing Earthbound for the first time and having much more fun

[@MarsLost]

[@drunkbillygoat]

Bdsp gives you a few extra mythical Pokémon in your fsme. Let's go eevee ( I think) do also. Look it up to be sure though

[@Deaththekid-.-]

its still impressiv that Chaind Echoes was made by only one guy. This Game is such a gem

[@jrmann331]

Needs more Ys. Dragon Quest 11 too.

[@happythumbsgaming8606]

I would add Dragon Quest 11.

[@mattiasolsson1523]

Nintendo Switch has a pack full of RPG games, especially Xenoblade Chronicles 3 which is my most favorite game.

[@8bitboss929]

Absolutely love Fire Emblem Three Houses and Xenoblade chronicles 3. Highly recommend either.

Arceus is where Pokemon should go.

Honorable mention should go to Trials of Mana.

I just came to check if Live A Live was here. Good job, but it should have been higher

[@gustaveriksson113]

You undersold Chained Echoes. By far my favorite Jrpg in 20 years.

[@Metzelteddy]

And I’m here still wish for skies of Arcadia remake/remaster 😢😅 Maybe tomorrow

[@velinfransiscahuang7033]

Play rpg on my lovely cute switch while eat sweet cakes everywhere!! This is feel so Good!! 🤠🍰

[@Labonno-xi7rq]

You should have mentioned Valkyria Chronicles 4. It's also a turn based rpg!

[@RobCartwright]

That game is so overlooked!

[@donguapo7862]

Chained echoes was surprisingly great, an enthralling story with immersive and unique combat.

[@Urlastnerve]

I’m still working on Octopath 2. I love the game. I’m around 30 hours in. But I take getting pulled away from it and never find the time to beat it. I will though. Loved the first one

[@love2lovesum1]

Octopath Traveler 1 & 2 are my two favorite JRPG games on the Nintendo Switch. The music, gameplay, characters, and story all draw me in. I tried my best to get into Triangle Strategy but the first time I played it, I lost interest. Maybe I’ll try again.

[@Bossvause]

It LIVE alive, like a LIVE event or concert, not live like “to live a long life”

[@Mintcar923]

Always try to do rpg day on Tuesdays which is today.. Thing is I’ve collected soo many over the years sometimes i don’t even know where to start.. Feeling sci fi so maybe I’ll go with Xenoblade or Star Ocean.. Overall though I’d say Trails & Fire Emblem may be my top two series

[@michaelmacorso4479]

You forgot to mention the expansion dlc for xenoblade 3 future redeemed. That was a incredible piece that concluded the xenoblade trilogy beautifully.

[@ShunsuiHitsugaya]

I've played the orignal Star Ocean 2 & its PSP remake. Both were awesome. Had so much fun playing Fire Emblem: 3 Houses as well.

[@teovu5557]

PSP remaster not a remake.....lol

[@frank2mb]

Silently praying for a Golden Sun remake (or a Golden Sun 4, because the 3rd ended on a massive cliffhanger)

[@DanielZeal]

I would love to see a list like this but with only action-RPGs.

[@Sandevistan2020]

Chained Echoes, underrated gem

[@ungeschaut]

Star Ocean Integrity and Faithlesness is WAY BETTER than the new one. Imo! I loved Star Ocean IaF because it was light hearted and short for a Star Ocean

[@jpbernier4196]

Played Final Fantasy IX and Dragon Quest Treasures

[@ciaralizabeth]

Persona 5 royal and dq11 should be on this list. Also, I actually preferred xc2. I really enjoyed pairing up blades with drivers.

[@Lloydproductions4171]

Xenoblade 3 its my favorite out the series

[@BigBossCQCLegend]

Agreed

[@michaelmacorso4479]

Especially when you add the dlc to the game. Nobody does expansion pass better than monolith soft

[@mattiasolsson1523]

Same here.

[@Damacius13]

So you made a video of the best RPGs on switch and you left out Persona 5 Royal and Dragon Quest XI S, literally two of the best RPGs ever made. You have one job and can't even make it right, bunch of noobs.

[@Crumble_n_use]

4 views in 1 minute, the falloff is crazy

[@jteneb]

What!? Not having Dark Souls or The Witcher 3 invalidates the whole thing

[@Mechosin]

I guess their idea was to talk about Jrpgs, not RPGs in general. They should have called the video "Best *J*-rpgs"

[@bchosen215]

XC3 is a great game, but it’s just the 3rd best Xenoblade on the switch IMO

[@BruceMichaelFilms]

Star Ocean has “exceptional voice acting”?

[@esseff]

The fact that Sea of Stars didn’t make this list is criminal.

[@michellepatino8733]

Right, that game was phenomenal.

[@MrLukkyNL]

Not really... medische at best. Sorry.

[@neoinfinity5204]

Firstly you forgot about Persona Royal unless you’re not counting old games on new consoles then at least put P5 Strikers, some might disagree but i believe XC2 is better story wise unless sequel fame is its similarity to fantasy games, i keep hearing about three houses and they day managing the schedule is very tedious and might force to save multiple files and personally the strategy system seems little boring with minimal actions.

[@samyb4566]

It's a shame that Ring Fit Adventure isn't here. I feel like people keep seeing it as just a fitness game while it is also an RPG.

[@miekamariehodson1731]

Star ocean the 2nd story R is my favorite game 😊

[@MichaelTaylor-qp2xf]

SMT 4 turned me off the series with how punishing it was right out of the gate, but I'm a big fan of Persona.

[@The810kid]

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 number 1 you're Snuffing right.

[@jimbo9208]

when did they say it was #1

[@mattiasolsson1523]

Its not any number order, it was 10 best RPG games on Switch.

[@Link-pr9id]

DQ11S not being on this list is insane 💀

[@Metaphysician2]

Needs more Trails

[@SuperRangerGuy1]

I would have to disagree with the games on this list IMO; due to no interest with the exception being: Fire Emblem: 3 Houses; Super Mario RPG; no; & hell no (on the last 2 games you mentioned on pick up)

[@legendpokemonmasters]

Paper mario thousand year door?😳

[@takenoprisoner42]

Is there a reason why Dragon Quest 11 and Persona 5 Royal are not here? Is it because it’s multiplatform?

[@Mechosin]

The video should have been called "Best *J*-rpgs". I can't believe Dark Souls and Divinity Original Sin II are not there.

[@jellyman9013]

Yeah I thought pokemon legends arceus was one of the worst games I've ever played.

[@calvinmatthews1527]

You guys got a serious Pokémon bias. What makes Legends Arceus better than the likes of Monster Hunter: Rise, Dragon Quest XIS or Persona 5?

[@domx7zero157]

And Bravely Default 2

[@luancunha2297]

What the hell, Chained Echoes but no Dragon Quest XI? It's something VERY wrong with that!

[@javiervampihernandez9288]

Don't forget Persona 5 Royal

[@percyvolnar8010]

All of these games are absolutely stunning on an overclocked switch with 60fps patches applied where applicable....

[@lucasthegamemasterporterfi84]

I really do wish that the shin megami tensei games and persona games took a chance for change to real time action combat as a setting for those that don’t want to play the game in a turn based style combat system

[@piskipa]

Pretty sure the most "engaging" fire emblem game is Engage.

[@RobCartwright]

Persona 5 Royal for sure.

[@DementoPowerful]

Unpopular opinion: Xenobalde chronicles has the most repetitive gameplay ever it gets boring very quickly

[@SmackdownMadness]

Wow no Sea Of Stars

[@pramath1605]

Persona 5, yo

[@MohammedHdghj-is8jl]

Where is p5 royal

[@patrice9330]

This is one of the worst mojo plays lists😅 i only agree with fe3h, sm rpg, and peaknoblade chronicles 3. Pokemon legends belongs on a top 20 list instead of top 10. And where is nier automata or neo the world ends with you, or any final fantasy or dragon quest. Plus the title of this video may as well be jrpgs. Star ocean r is good, but belongs on a best jrpgs list, not for switch exclusively. Also octopath traveler and live a live are overrated. The good thing about this list is that xenoblade chronicles 1 is not on here.

[@joevincent5408]

Dq 11 s did not perform well on switch thats why they dont add it to the list

[@twinsenjo8345]

wdym it didnt perform well? I think the reason its not included is because its not a switch exclusive.

[@joevincent5408]

@@twinsenjo8345 octo and smt are not exclusive anymore. They dont even mention exclusive

[@twinsenjo8345]

@@joevincent5408 you are right, well idk then. In my opinion DQ11 is top 5 JRPG game on switch. Sea of stars also another I would maybe include. Golf story is a bit of a weird pick

[@domx7zero157]

So Golf Story is better than Dragon Quest 11, Bravely Default 2, Paper Mario 2, Crisis Core Reunion and Persona 5 Royal? You guys need to do more research before making a list...
