    If you have a switch then Xenoblade 1,2,3 are an absolute must

    Good list I’m surprised on your sub count you have really good videos! Definitely earned a sub here!

      Hey, thank you so much! I appreciate the sub.

    Great video and list. I've subbed. Keep 'em coming :)

    I've been playing both dq11d and p5r along side each other. Two masterpieces but very different but equally awesome.

    • @gabegoforth
      @gabegoforth  Před 2 měsíci +3

      That's impressive, I typically gotta stick with one JRPG at a time, lol. They are definitely fantastic in their own ways.

    Good list buddy. Dragon Quest xi is one of my favourite switch games. Loving OT 2 and looking forward to star ocean.
    While I respect what live alive is, it didn't quite gel with me even at the end.
    One day I will allow myself to get sucked into persona 5. Started it once but could quickly tell I wasn't in the right mindset for it yet

    • @gabegoforth
      @gabegoforth  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Thanks! And yes, Persona 5 is definitely a game that you've got to slowly just allow to take over your life, lol. But it's an awesome experience.

    Some absolute KILLER titles here. I'm a huge fan of Dragon Quest XI, Star Ocean 2 and Persona 5 Royal. Octopath Traveller 2 has been on my to play list for a long while. Hoping to finally play it this year

    • @gabegoforth
      @gabegoforth  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Thanks! And Octopath 2 is fantastic. Definitely give it a shot as soon as you can. Took me a while to get to it as well though, backlog is a hell of a thing.

    Ive been following RPGs for years now and haven't been able to sink my teeth into any of them more than a few hours. Not since FFX in highschool did i spend that much time on a game like that. 😢 Someday...

    Battle Chasers Nightwar is amazing and a must play switch RPG . Xenoblade Chronicles HD, Fire Emblem Echoes (3ds) Fire Emblem Engage switch , Unicorn Overlord ( must play right away ) switch. Radiant Historial (3ds) OH GOOD LORD this game is why I love RPG's . Great list my man .. 💪

    I really need to get a switch, the Octopath games and Dragon Quest look so awesome.

    • @gabegoforth
      @gabegoforth  Před 2 měsíci

      Absolutely! Those games, plus a huge catalog from the last 7 years.

  • @qkonor
    @qkonor Před 2 měsíci +1

    I got P5 a bit ago but am afraid of playing it wrong? Like, I’m worried I’m focusing on the wrong things, leveling the wrong folks up. Any ideas on how to combat this worry and enjoy it more?

    • @gabegoforth
      @gabegoforth  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Yea, it can be a little overwhelming at first. Honestly, though, I'd say just don't worry too much about it on your first play through, and enjoy the ride.
      Other than that, just read all of the books that you can. Focus on your relationships with confidants. Only sleep when you have to, try to do something productive at night. And finish palaces in one go. It can be as complicated or as easy as you make it.

    • @tbnwontpop8857
      @tbnwontpop8857 Před 2 měsíci +2

      Understand that 100% completion is basically unattainable in your first playthrough due to lack of experience. What you should work on first and foremost is Confidants, and if you don't have the stats to progress one, focus on progressing others while you raise them.

      Shoot, 500 hrs on one file still missing stuff

  • @FullMetalGundam
    @FullMetalGundam Před 2 měsíci

    Would swap out Octopath Traveller for Trials of Mana or FFXII remake and would rather Shin Megami V for the Persona Slot. Xenoblade 2 or 3 deserves a shout too to break up the Square Enix goodness!

  • @michaelpegasiou4531
    @michaelpegasiou4531 Před 2 měsíci

    I’m 85 hours into octopath 2,it’s a beast of an rpg and I’m maybe a bit over half way through and it looks great on the switch oled even after trying it on ps5 first.

    • @gabegoforth
      @gabegoforth  Před 2 měsíci

      It is packed full of so much content but still flows so well. It's definitely a game that I would choose on the Switch over the PS5. It just feels right on a Nintendo platform.

    This is my kinda video! Gonna watch it soon but getting the algorithm going!!!

  • @Naryoril
    @Naryoril Před 2 měsíci +3

    This list is sorely lacking anything Xenoblade. While I have several games i'd personally put above many in this list (like Trials of Mana Remake, Triangle Strategy , (NEO) The World Ends With You or even Harvestella), I can see why others wouldn't. But not to include any of the Xenoblade games is just wrong, especially when Star Ocean 2 and Live A Live are on it (and DQ11, i really didn't like it, but most JRPG fans seem to love it, for a reason I can't really understand). I'm not saying these games are bad (ok, to be honest, i would say Live A Live is pretty bad), but I can't think of a reason to put them above any of the Xenoblade games.

    • @gabegoforth
      @gabegoforth  Před 2 měsíci +1

      I appreciate the comment. And all of the games that you listed I do love, the Trials of Mana remake and Triangle Strategy are incredible! I just happen to enjoy the ones I mentioned a little more. However, as far as Xenoblade, I honestly never really enjoyed them. I know tons of people love and adore the series, and that's awesome, but they just never really clicked with me personally.

    • @iveybullard8988
      @iveybullard8988 Před 2 měsíci +1

      The list also is sorely lacking any rpg that you can only play on switch. All these games play better on any other console.

    • @TrazynTheKleptomanichad
      @TrazynTheKleptomanichad Před 2 měsíci

      ​@@iveybullard8988 agreed. if you gonna pick a Megaten game on switch then why P5R? at this time of writing SMT:V is *still* exclusive to switch and has arguably better gameplay

  • @SurferKroky
    @SurferKroky Před 2 měsíci

    DQ11 is just a wonderful game

    • @gabegoforth
      @gabegoforth  Před 2 měsíci

      It really is. It just hits on all of the right points for a JRPG.

  • @toma.7065
    @toma.7065 Před měsícem

    No Xenoblade? ... Seriously? O_o

  • @tabris95
    @tabris95 Před 2 měsíci +7

    Disappointing list. 4/5 are just SquareEnix RPGs, and only one non turn based entry. With such a large catalog of amazing games to choose from, I really would've liked to see more variety here.

    • @Sploontan
      @Sploontan Před 2 měsíci

      Can't wait to see your video covering your favorites then! Asshole behavior 💯

    • @SurferKroky
      @SurferKroky Před 2 měsíci +3

      It's a personal list though. Each to their own and all that

    • @MaskyFalle
      @MaskyFalle Před 2 měsíci +2

      I’m curious. What would your list look like?

    • @tabris95
      @tabris95 Před 2 měsíci +3

      @@MaskyFalle Thanks for asking. First, I would make it a top 10 list. 5 just isn't enough room for how good the RPG library is.
      My list would be:
      10. Ys VIII
      9. Valkyria Chronicles 4
      8. Legend Of Heroes: Trails From Zero and Trails Into Azure
      7. Bug Fables
      6. Monster Hunter Stories 2
      5. Cross Code
      4. Fuga: Melodies Of Steel 1&2
      3. Chained Echoes
      2. Persona 5 Royal
      1. Xenoblade 3
      I would also give special mention to upcoming games that are not quite out yet that will most likely earn a spot on this list before the end of this year:
      Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance
      Paper Mario and the Thousand Year Door
      Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes

    • @TrazynTheKleptomanichad
      @TrazynTheKleptomanichad Před 2 měsíci +1

      Valkyria Chronicles, SMT:V & Paper Mario mentioned. already superior list ngl
      would personally s/o to Fire Emblem as well

  • @Hottpinkbenz
    @Hottpinkbenz Před 2 měsíci

    I have all 5 games physically and I have yet to play any of them lol!!! 😂

    • @gabegoforth
      @gabegoforth  Před 2 měsíci

      Lol! Well, I recommend you starting with Dragon Quest 11. But there's no bad choices there.
