What are your favorite turn based JRPGs? The 10 BEST Action JRPGs 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoXYm2asdr92n80
@Raj-vy2yn23 күн бұрын
Trails of Cold Steel is fantastic and I highly recommend giving it a chance if you have the time to spend. It is admittedly an almost 400+ hour experience for CS1-4, and some would even say you should start with Sky, which would drastically bump up the time frame.

For those who are interested in The Legend of Heores: Trails of Cold Steel I higly recomend the previous saga Trails in the Sky.

@KarlavaegenАй бұрын
@@nya27I like the gameplay 😀 It is pure turned based combat and the fact that you can move around your characters on the battlefield, adds another layer of strategy. The games are though enough for me on normal, so think twice before choosing a harder setting.

Honestly for turn-based RPGs, nothing scratches the itch like FFX, even though it's a pretty old game, I'd recommend anyone to play it. As a plus, it probably has the best soundtrack of any game ever made, seriously, there are so many memorable melodies that just knock it out of the park

It should be in here because technically it is turn based but I wanted to save it for a top 10 tactical JRPG video coming soon. That's a solid top 3 though.

I agree with that ranking!! I only played FE Three houses just this year, after I already bought it a while ago. It instantly got one of my favourites, together with Trails, SMT V

Wasn't expecting to see a RotTP shout-out here. It's a great game! Also not technically a JRPG since the devs are American, but that didn't stop Sea of Stars from making this list, so fair play. I consider it the best 7.5/10 I've ever played. Not quite a masterpiece, but so far above anything I expected from it.

Trails is my favorite series but it really is best (though not 100% necessary) to start with Trails in the Sky. That's the best way to get the whole story. But so long as you start at the first game in an arc you won't miss way too much.
@lucianwong4204 ай бұрын
It might not be necessary, but I do think it is important. I started with Cold Steel 1&2, but I was confused at some parts of the games. When I decided to play the Liberl and Crossbell games before starting Cold Steel 3, everything just made a lot more sense.

I started with Cold Steel too and I agree that Cold Steel 1 starts slow because of all the world building but I stuck with it and ended up enjoying it a lot. So much so that after playing Cold Steel 2 I went back and played the previous five while waiting for Cold Steel 3 to be released. Now I’m waiting for Daybreak which is the tenth game. You have a lot of Trails to get through lol.

I'll be very honest, I will only recommend the Cold Steel games if you don't mind current era anime tropes, waifus and harem plot-lines. the story has its high and lows and most of the payoff comes from playing the older games and catching the references and connecting the points of the greater plot, so it's very hit or miss. Also be prepared to invest a lot of time just with the Erebonia games. Trails games are known to be huge time sinks, more than the usual jrpg
@TagTheLegend4 ай бұрын
After doing some more research I see a lot of people say similar things. Like Cold Steel is a solid entry point if you care about graphics but its WAY better to start at the beginning. I just wish the earlier games weren't only on PC.

Sadly, I've already played them all (except Honkai: Star Rail since I refuse to support any GACHA). They all have their strengths and flaws, but personally, none encapsulates the magic of the genre better than Dragon Quest XI. The only thing I can criticize is that it has a super childish design and I am a grown ass adult (Yes, I understand that the design is characteristic of Dragon Quest and its artistic director R.I.P.). You can imagine how thirsty I may be for Dragon Quest XII since a more adult design was precisely what was promised

You then ask for a like and subscribe and lament the views to likes. You cant call something a must play when you havent played it yourself as this video doesnt come from the heart. You can do better. No like from me for now.

Legend of heroes series is only for people that love world building over anything else and like to read like a LOT like a fucking TON LOT and don't mind anime cliches, excessive exposition and more often than not useless and waste of time dialogue (Like genshin impact but a bit better) SMT know for depth story telling? hahahahahha no, that's not true at all, SMT IV is the exception and even so the story is not that depth but the story goes to place, is engaging, fun and do makes you question stuff lets say is deep enough. DQ XI no complaints just overall superb Jrpg and is a classic, but many people hate the 3rd act (post game) I have no issues but I get the hate. Like a Dragon or yakuza 7? Sure but is a bit too grindy but is challenging enough Like a dragon infinity wealth seems to be a mix bag, some say is amazing, others that is a downgrade to the previous one and game is not as challenging as the first....hmm I really don't know, I haven't beat it yet so be mindful. Persona 5/Royal going to be frank Royal is a joke, Vanilla is better if you want a challenge and is the harder version to platinum, secret boss is also more difficult so is up to you. Bravely default 2, pretty much inferior to the 1st game and Second in almost every way.

Don't think you'll like SMT V just because you like other Atlus titles. It's boring and tedious, with no story to speak of and limited interaction with other characters. Also, Chained Echoes has a mediocre plot with one of the worst endings in the genre.
