I don't mean that patronizingly, but after a long break - I needed that - I can finally enjoy his interesting output around my favorite games again. Before, the Rage mode was just too intensive for me. Thank you!

Considering the angle of this video, this forgotten series could have multiple parts. Because of a resurgence of tactical appreciation (Triangle Strategy, Fire Emblem, FFT Remaster talk and others) remastering or bringing back Arc the Lad seems like a good idea. If they could remaster/remake or put out a new game fitting its own success originally, Id bet people would take notice of it more now than maybe a few years ago.

I'd also add some games that got localized out of nowhere, like The Legend of Ghost Lion for the NES; nobody remembers games like that pretty much. Naturally, the most obscure stuff is usually JP-exclusive, as it's only accessible by a very small number of people outside of the country itself, but that's obvious.

Alundra is pretty much my favorite Adventure RPG ever, Zelda and it's series is merely second. I recently cleared Shining Force Exa and you're entirely correct we all know every single Tales games even those we never touched. I also never played this game. Atelier Iris, my favorite trilogy in the franchise. And of course, I'm not to keen on strategy RPGs, but Arc the Lad is a clear exception, I played every single one of them from beginning to end, I even like the disaster that was End of Darkness

I can't say Arc the Lad 1-3 and Twilight of the Spirits are forgotten as they were re-released on PSN and TotS is also on PSNow for anyone to enjoy. While not yet confirmed, there's a slimmer of hope all 4 of them will get added to the revamp of PS+. With this new version of PS+, they'll add more classic games on it over time, so who knows when will they pop up.

As I recall the first two Arc the Lad games had a digital release on PSN for PS3 and PSP/Vita. Now, if you want something really obscure, anyone remember Ar Tonelico Qoga? It was one of the first RPGs where synchronising your actions to the music mattered. (You could manage without, but syncing gave you some major advantages.) Or Cross Edge... even I barely remember Cross Edge, and I played the thing.

I'd throw Lunar 1 and 2 up there. Another RPG series with an absolute gem of a translation from Working Designs. I still find myself going back to the Sega CD to play those, especially 2, which was absolutely fantastic. Yeah, they got remakes elsewhere, Lunar 1 got remake after remake, with the GBA and PSP versions being different from the PS1 and especially the Sega CD version. But the originals just had that special charm to them, that makes me value them above the others. Since you mentioned Shining Force CD, that one NEEDS to get a port somewhere. So, the game essentially had 3 scenarios. You had to beat the first two ports of the Game Gear version before being able to tackle the 3rd. What sucks, and the big reason it definitely needs a port somewhere, is that the save files were massive. Sega CD has some internal memory for saving games (Not sure why that wasn't standard on CD consoles, having to buy a console plus a memory card just to save sucks). The amount was alright but Shining Force CD's data took up essentially all the memory the system had. And, let's face it, you're not dedicating all the memory you had on your console to a single game's save file. So, were essentially forced to buy a memory expansion for the Sega CD so you could hold more saves. I never saw one, probably because the Sega CD wasn't that popular and most people opted to just delete save data rather than buy a memory card that cost about as much as a game.

Hilarious fact! I've been listening to the Alundra OST in my car at the moment because my commercial music MP3 Player is glitching out so I put my secondary MP3 Player on and that has mostly video game OSTs on it. It's actually one of those games I play again every so often...once I've forgotten the answers to the puzzles so I could solve them again. The Lufia series is another I take down and play from time to time. At least just the original trilogy. Like Alundra, it's usually after I forgot the answers to the puzzles in Lufia 2. It's also one of the things that helped me through the early months of 2020 along with the Trials of Mana Remake. I definitely enjoyed the Atelier Iris subseries. Enjoyed the stories and characters, and having a more traditional RPG like experience alongside the synthesis from the earlier games.

Shoutout to Blue Dragon: That was the very first game for the X360 I got all achievements in. I played through the game multiple times so all party members could have the best equipment including accessories that could be acquired once per play through, challenging the DLC dungeon on Impossible mode-heck, the entire game on Impossible with max level party and shadow ranks was the perfect balance, and just enjoying the experience. Cheers for Mistwalker both for Blue Dragon and even more so for Lost Odyssey.

I love Blue Dragon, the class system was really fun and addicting to use as you could combine skills from every class with every character, each character was better for some stuff obviously, a mage wasn't really going to be a good melee attacker for example, but those classes could offer good passives/skills for the mage, and had some good gameplay mechanics that baffles me how no other, at least that I know of, has used again, like being able to use a spell/attack immediately or charge it for 1,2, etc turns and deal more damage, same thing with heals, buffs and debuffs, using them immediately would make them single target, but charging them would make them AoEs, the size depending on how much you charged them. I know its wishful thinking, but I hope MS releases a PC port some day. The last boss theme, "The Seal is Broken" is one of Uematsu best works too.

I never bought White Knight because at the time everyone was saying "eeehhh, they are OK". And yes, they were pushed as online compatible and it looked like yet one more attempt to revolutionize JRPG during the PS3 years, while all the actual JRPG were being released on low hardware power handhelds. When I think forgotten I think: Front Mission (usually met with "ooohhh yeeeaaahh! I remember those!") Granstream Saga Quest 64 Dawn of Mana (might be considered a platformer I guess) PTO2 and PTO4 (more of a strategy rpg) If we want to talk more modern stuff, 13 Sentinals Aegis Rim seems to have come and gone and no one paid much attention If we expand to PC there are a lot of games, but the King's Quest series I think is fading to time.

Atelier Iris 2 and 3 (didn't get 1) are imo the best Atelier games imo followed by Mana Khemia (do got both) imo due to the stories feeling more generic good vs evil with it's story (especially with Iris 2) in comparison to the other games that focus too much on more personal issues/slice of life imo. Ryza 1 kinda brought back some indications of this with it's enemy and how said enemy could put Ryza's town at risk but still didn't give the epic feel that Iris 2 gave imo. As for Shining Force Exa ya it was a good game as well, unlike most Shining fans though I never played the turn based games and only the action games so I do not have the whole 'feel like Sega betrayed me due to swapping battle systems' stance they push half the time. Honestly along with Shining Tears I should go back and play Exa sometime.

There will probably never be another that’s like it, not in the same way, not with that same “special something” that brought Alundra together into what it was. It’s cool to see Shining Force get some attention. I always hoped for a compilation of all of them in one package. At least the Sega Genesis, Game Gear and Sega CD titles. Even better to throw Shining Wisdom in there.

Alundra isn't forgotten, nor is it a RPG. How about something like Dark Wizard or Vay instead? Destiny of an Emperor, maybe?

You going on about how they change jrpgs to action rpg has me worried about Valkryia Profile lol. I love ajrpgs like Ys but sometimes it's not a good move. I would like Lunar to get ports or remake.

Think it was something like an EB Games or Electronic Arts Mag. Where I first saw FF7 which is why I got the mag, but in it were some of the images of Arc the Lad in it. This was before FF VII dropped and I wanted Arc the Lad more. It looked better to me back then and it still does now.

For White Knight chronicles one design choice I do not understand is why did they have a character creator if the created character is not the main character

Lufia 3 (The Legend Returns) is most definitely NOT a prequel. It is in fact the last game chronologically, as it's where the Sinistrals are destroyed for good. Not sure how someone can confuse it for a prequel when the opening text scrawl literally summarizes the first two games in past tense.

I don't know if it's because I played the PSN version and maybe the emulation was laggy, but I just gave up on Alundra eventually because of the jumping. The collision detection on the platforming (and a number of other elements) was rough. And the timed jumping puzzles were just frustrating, and felt like a waste of my time. Which is a shame, because the idea of playing Zelda with a Castlevania whip was awesome.

Alundra looks cool! Anywhere i can look to find it or games like it? The white knight trilogy is a great time. Having a custom character is interesting and having an online version if the town building system from the dark cloud/chronicle games.As a tales fan, i wanna get tales of the world at some point. Shining force isnt really my thing from the gameplay shown, but hey it still looks really decent for the time.im heavily biased towards blue dragon. But as much as i love it, the permanently missable spells and abilities was a massive issue (at least lost odyseey offered an alternative way to get some of those in the form of the auction house.) Ive only played an emulated lufia 1 but im interested in it. Does anyone know if theres a good video on the series anywhere?phantasy star universe is an enigma to me. I swear ive played it at some point yet i cant remember anything about them.i need fo play more atelier games. Rorona was my first one and it was massively off putting to me. I then played ryza and fell in love with the concept. Im fine with calendar and time based systems in games (heck i enjoy the concept in games like lightning returns) but if people could advise me on what atelier games do or dont have a calendar system and which are the more forgiving ones with it, id be grateful. i kinda wanna play the arc the lad series just to see the' train wreck' Also. What is Growlanser? Ive never heard of that one af Ll
