Like A Dragon: Ishin! is not an RPG genre.
Clearly just more AFK Arena lol
Playing Chained Echoes now, and Kylian talking about what happened to his sister in the past was darker than I had ever expected from the game.
Can u give me a spoiler? What happened???
@@uchihashinosou1320Spoilers for story
She was basically gang assaulted into a coma and it's certainly an uncomfortable conversation.
@@TrueConsumption gawd damn, wow what a hero my guy thank you :))
@@uchihashinosou1320 Your welcome, the game has very mature story elements and that's just one of quite a few. One of my favorite RPGs in a long time.
@@TrueConsumption Agree plus it was developed by only one guy. Great game, a shame it didn't get a proper AAA budget. Lost interest in JRPG for a while but I really enjoyed this one. Now looking forward for sea of stars
Having just recently beaten Yakuza: Like A Dragon, what a game.
It's an *amazing* game. Probably in my top 5 ever... (and even better if you've played the previous ones thanks to all the nods)
I wanted to finish it so bad but once you got to the last few sections the grinding I thought was ridiculous. Lost interest in doing that and just watched the rest of the game on CZcams lol
@@baxleykid2 Are you talking about the postgame dungeon or the end of the main story? I never had any issue with grinding, but maybe that was because I was going out of my way to do every minigame and sidequest.
@@kevinstreetgaming if i may butt in. I had to grind to beat the duo of returning figures. The fight was much easier with 10-15 levels. Otherwise i didnt have to grind for the main story.
But if baxleykid2 was thinking of post game, i absolutely concur : this game has a bad grind. I gave up on the last challenge
@@baxleykid2 If you're talking about the grinding sections in Chapter 12, I highly suggest levelling up to level 40 at least thru the arena (instead of grinding all the way to level 50) and buying some rocket launchers and chilled noodles to help you in defeating the boss. Those two items are life-savers.
Parasite Eve, PSI OPS, Dark Wizard, and The Suffering are 4 games I wish they would remake.
Persona 3-5 are such great games. I had the pleasure of finishing 3&4 for the first time this year and loved them. Persona 4 is easily my favorite of the 3
Was about to start with P3 as well after playing P4 & P5, but luckly it was around the same time P3 Remake was announced. Man I am so hyped for the remake.
Yes. But what about P1, both P2 and SMT games? They're way darker and deeper, and also equally entertaining.
@@f.9344The remake is going to be a bit different from Persona 3 Portable, probably best to wait for more information anyways. I know at least one change is there will be no option for female main character. I have Persona 3 FES and Portable on multiple platforms already and I haven't even beaten it yet. These games are really effin long and personally, they take me months or a couple years to beat. I understand wanting to wait for the remake
I wanted to get into P4G which I bought on Steam, but the time limits give me anxiety and I usually end up not playing it because I'm tempted to look up a guide on how exactly to progress through the story to get a decent ending because I don't really have the time to go through a long game several times or trying to juggle a dozen save files trying to figure out how exactly to proceed through the game to get a decent or good ending. It's also why I haven't tried the other Persona games, because I've heard they're very similar.
@@Dhalin That's perfectly reasonable, there's a lot of games to play and not enough time. I have played Persona 3, 4, and 5 for dozens of hours, but I've never beaten them, they always remaster them before I finish so I lose motivation lol. Persona 5 really frustrated me because they released Royal before I finished regular 5 AND I was somebody who pre-ordered 5. This is also why I don't play mobile games or live service games, a lot of people play those for 1000s of hours. Rather spend my hours playing Persona, Witcher, Dark Souls, other good games
My personal favourite is the first M-rated FF game, Final Fantasy Type-0. Played the original on PSP 3 times through, and also the HD remaster.
It has serious and gritty tone with some quite disturbing universe rules.
I am currently playing Yakuza Like a Dragon on my Steam Deck and I really love the humor. At least once per play session, one of the characters says or does something that makes me laugh out loud.
I want to get a switch, but yakuza like a dragon makes me want to get a ps5
Speaking of Nier Automata, I hope we eventually get remakes or remasters of the first 3 Drakengard games as they tie in to them. At least lore wise. I don't think it's ever fully explained but there are a lot of little lore bits, especially in Automata, that say the virus that destroyed the world came from the dimension the Drakengard games are set in.
so based, drakengard 1 is one of my personal favs of all time, I want to see what the combat could look like with platinum behind the wheel, or just a modern developer considering the combat could only get better compared to the original
2 is actually non-canon iirc cause a different team made it
I take it you're a Persona fan....
What makes you say that? 🤔
Persona is awesome. I've only played 4 so far, but I'm excited to play 5. They say it's the best of the series and I'm here for it
@@bwestacado9643 You will definitely enjoy 5!
@@bwestacado9643 Vanilla 4 is the best
The fact you said you were at the beginning of the video
That’s why
Not bad list. My favorite M rated JRPG (that isn't Nier Automata) is Death end re;Quest. It's a bit on the budget side, but the story kept me on the edge of my seat. The gameplay is pretty cool too. Not many JRPGs use a physics system for its combat.
Great video.
Yeah, as a whole, they seemed more reluctant to give video games an M rating in the past. FF7 is perhaps the clearest example of this.
I just want to note. In the PEGI rating Persona and SMT are rated 16 (18 is the heighest rating). The same rating that FF13 and 15 got, as well as all Tales games since Xillia. Yeah, the PEGI rating can be wierd as the difference between 16 is so minor anyway.
Yeah, it's kinda funny how only in the USA Persona games are m-rated(Well, I think Persona 5 got M-rated in 1-2 countries), mostly due the ESRB lacking of more variety of ratings, in japan Persona and SMT are rated 15. It's very nonsencical having Persona 5 and GTA V sharing the game rating.
Also, Fun fact: Persona 4 vanilla was rated 12 in japan.
Interesting! I wonder why the subtle difference?
@@armandostockvideos8386 You just reminded me about Ar Tonelico Quga which was rated at ESRB an M-rated 17, but then got at PEGI 12.
@@TheGamingShelf I don't really get it myself. Sometimes 16 rated games can be super dark. For example I just beat Rain Code and the only thing that stops from being 18+ is the pink blood. Another thing happened in Bayonetta. Bayonetta 1 and 2 were 18, while 3 was rated 16. Mostly due to the green blood in 3.
But then you got 16 rated games such as Uncharted that got T in ESRB...
One of the wierdest got be Dynsaty Warriors. The mainline Dynasty Warriors games are rated 12, while the mainline SAMURAI warriors game are rated 16. And they are basically the same thing. Same story about historical war period, no blood at all, and both of them have sexualized characters. Yet they got different rating.
If there’s gore or sex, it is definitely getting an adult rating
I think P3 got done a little dirty in this.
It has its rough edges, but its story and writing easily stands above the others. From its phenomenal character writing (which the devs highlighted as P3's strength above the others when talking about new systems they are adding to reload) and story scenario, to how its city and the development of said city throughout the game with Apathy Syndrome and its growing presence as the game goes on.
Social Links like Akinari and cast members who go through a lot of growth and development (Junpei being a stellar example of that) only begin to scratch at some of the things that made that game great.
It also is the Persona 3 game where the party members have the most interactions that don't revolve around you or your group; where they just are people going about their own lives or interacting with each other separate from the protag. Easily one of my largest criticisms of 5 was how until Royal, most every interaction that wasn't with Joker was about Joker and phantom thieves, which is something P3 does pretty differently.
I am so excited for Reload.
This reminded me that I still need to play Chained Echoes. It's been on my backlog ever since it released.
Excellent list! So many great games! Some that are still in my backlog!
I wish more games were mature and adult rated. So many games I want to like get censored too much these days. There needs to be a verification age toggle on games so you can view stuff uncensored. Look at Baldurs Gate 3, number 1 game in the world right now selling like hot cakes and overwhelmingly positive reviews and its ESRB rating is chock full of everything basically like the Game of Thrones of video games. There is serious demand for high quality mature rated gaming.
I picked up Persona 4 for my vita recently. Looking forward to getting started
Like a dragon is a masterpiece I absolutely loved my time with it
Great video Taylor, hope you are feeling better 🙏🏾
Much better, thanks bruv 😊
great games here some of my favorite games of all time. i still need to play some of these though. hope your feeling better taylor.
Recovered for the most part! Thanks :)
Yakuza: Like a Dragon is literally my favorite game right now.
I want to get a switch, but yakuza like a dragon makes me want to get a ps5
Awesome list - had no idea Chained Echoes was M! Definitely a game I really want to check out someday.
It's so good! If you like retro RPGs you'll really dig it.
Love JRPGs The Super Famicom/Super Nintendo And PS1 JRPG Juggernauts I’ve Been Blessed To See All Of Gaming From 1980-Now
PS2 jrpgs made it bigger than more important
Damn, you pulled parasite eve from the time tunnel. It was awesome for the time
I guess if you make me choose. I would go with SMT games. I always enjoy them even if i don’t always understand them.
Of course P4 will be my favorite of the persona seies.
I love how OmniHeros ripped the Sorceress straight from Dragon's Crown.
Persona 3 was my first introduction to RPGs in general. It's story is gripping and from there I fell in love with the genre.
Parasite Eve is honestly one of my favorite application of Square's ATB system.
In my pre-teen days, collectiong cans was a source of income. I didn't have the Ichi's cool bike though.
When I started the video, I fully expected Shadow Hearts to be here. The first one is rated M, the second one probably should have been. Such great games (if you haven't played them, the first 2 comprise basically one story and are fantastic).
I need to play them for sure!
I came to this video looking for Shadow Hearts 1 as well
@@TheGamingShelf Shadow Hearts 2 easily of the top 10 JRPGs of all times
Not seeing Koudelka on your list surprises me. Fantastic jrpg with an M-Rating. I think it would have been alright, not to choose 3 persona entries. the franchise is designed to lean more into m-rating. you could have chosen all of them in one entry i think.
Also: I'd probably lump Nier: Automata and Final Fantasy XVI, along with the Souls-bourne games, into the "Japanese Made WRPGs" category. Hey, western made JRPGs (HELLOOOO Sea of Stars and Anachronox, among others) exist. And Like a Dragon: Ishin/All Kiryu Saga Games? Either that, or Action-Adventure.
P5R definitely didnt feel like a 100+ hour game, guess thats just how good it was. Cant wait to see how Reload turns out and that other new Atlus IP
Yes it did. The dialogue with all the confidants got to be too much
@@omensoffate No shh
Currently playing Person 5 now,. On the Space Dungeon the hardest Palace yet. Also got Ann to Rank 10 she said i love you and then nothing until the field trip to Hawaii 1.5 months later.
I'm not sure about the ESRB rating, as I'm in the PEGI region. I was kind of surprised to see that Trails from Zero and Trails to Azure have a 18 rating. The Cold Steel games are rated 12. Now, I haven't played any of them yet, so I can't really give an explanation on why this difference exists, maybe Zero and Azure are a lot darker, I don't know. Reverie is rated at 18 as well.
Zero and Azure have direct references to drugs, demon possession, and some other things that would be spoilers so that's probably why. Also language, and Randy being... well, Randy lmao. Sky 3rd and Kuro are also mature titles as well. Cold Steel series is a lot more tame in comparison but does also deal with some dark themes just in a way that isn't portrayed as especially dark. Amazing series, would highly recommend if you're a fan of jrpgs. Easily the most meticulously detailed game world I've seen in my 30 years of gaming.
@@Cyrus_Bright I finished the Sky trilogy earlier this year and when Reverie came out, I bought everything from Zero to Reverie so I'll definitely play them! I'm playing some other games from my backlog first so I'm not quite sure when I can start Zero.
@@snowenn oh wow thats awesome, glad to see that you seem to have enjoyed them if you went and bought every other game in the series xD take your time, no need to rush things. There won't be another experience quite like it.
@@Cyrus_Bright I have a little bit of a love/hate relationship with the Sky trilogy. There were times when I couldn't stop playing, and there were times where I was fed up and stopped for a couple of weeks. The lows are very low but the highs are very high.
I like Kevin very much, but the third game didn't really do it for me. I think because the story is too spread out, with scenes being out of chronological order. However, having seen reviews of the later games, I know shit is going to hit the fan in Crossbell, and seeing that one star door including a scene with Olivier and chancellor Osborne hinting at those events to come, I just NEEDED to know and see where this insane story is going.
I really liked SMT5 with its focus on gameplay. For story focus there is Persona.
Persona 5 is my favorite hands down not to mention Joker is my main in Super Smash Bros Ultimate I already have royal, Strikers, and preordered Tactica that's coming in November.
Great list! Also lol on dead bodies hanging around town in persona 4.
That game is WILD.
I never feel the mature stuff in persona to be over the top - mainly for the reason that the entire series is built upon caricatures and vivid colours. In that setting, if the mature stuff wasn't out there and on the edge too, it would (maybe paradoxically) feel more egregious.
Your FF16 take is definitely an outlier.
Octopath Traveler 2 is rated T but honestly I think it's mature enough to be rated M
Is it better than the first one?
@@pollolor15 haven't played the first one but from what I've read from others is, it improved a lot.
All SMT games are rocks. But Devil Survivor Overclocked is always have special place in my heart.
If you don't mind going back to the past a bit, then Digital Devil Saga is my recommendation. This was my gateway game for SMT in general.
Not me getting called out for watching/listening at work 💀 at least i have earbuds in lmao
Three of the entries being the modern Persona games and an SMT game i think someone’s a bit biased 😜
It was more a matter of there just weren’t that many M-Rated JRPGs that I played 😆
Have you had a chance to play any of the Shadow Hearts games (and/or Koudelka) yet Taylor? They are very much games that belong on a list like this, even if at the bottom (for me myself - they would be near the top).
I haven’t! I’ve heard good things though.
@@TheGamingShelf I was still thinking of M-rated JRPG games and was all-so reminded of "Zanki Zero: The Last Beginning" by Spike Chunsoft (the Danganronpa people). One of my more recent favorites that remain obscure in the JRPG fandom. A lot easier to get a copy (from PS5/PS4 digital store or even Steam) of that than any game of the Shadow Hearts saga. Here is hoping we get some Shadow Hearts Re-Masters in the future. Maybe if the spiritual sequel - the "Penny Blood" Kickstarter project - proves successful.
I wonder if you'd get a kick out of the mainline Shin Megami Tensei games, considering you like the Persona games. But since SMT has a very different focus, it's not entirely certain you will like them. I personally love SMT 3 for having a turn based battle system I actually like and proper philosophically driven story with a heavy focus on atmosphere and mood. And its hard mode especially makes the gameplay fun, albeit grind heavy. SMT Strange Journey (specifically the original DS version), 4 and the Digital Devil Saga duology are pretty interesting as well. 5 is good and has very interesting ideas in the story, but the said story comes across as very incomplete. The two Raidou games are also rather unique action rpgs, with the second game especially being a hidden gem.
final fantasy 16 ranked higher than like a dragon is madness 😂
I'm shocked you included Nier but not Drakengard. That first one is so freaking dark and fun, also the start of all things Nier.
Drakengard isn’t much of an rpg is why, it’s more just a musou slasher.
@@morriganrenfield8240 I'd say it is more or the same of an RPG as Nier though.
Persona and Nier Automata are my most desired JRPG's I still NEED to play!
Imma be honest with you I haven't liked any of the persona games that much, however Nier games, especially Automata, are some of my favorites of all time and I encourage you to give them a shot whenever you can. Especially Automata, it's by far the best one
@@rooster1610 I've got Nier Automata awaiting in my collection, just need to find the time for that masterpiece 😭
Play persona, I played 5 or so hours of Nier and it had some of the driest characters I’ve ever seen. The world is also pretty boring and empty, not sure why it gets such high praise. Persona is pretty much the opposite of Nier, it’s fun, has amazing characters, and a world with a lot to see and do.
Don't listen to the two people above, both Persona and Nier Automata are masterpieces in their own right! Though you shouldn't expect these two games to have the same strenghts and weaknesses :) Nier Automata is quite deep, raw and tragic, while Persona games are in general is more peppy, colorful and fun (even though it has some deep and sad moments as well, but they're still highschool themed anime game at the end of the day.), so they aren't similar by any stretch of the imagination. I'll also add Nier Replicant remaster if you end up loving Automata! Replicant is just as amazing!
@@fabiof.8152 I never said persona was bad bruh just said I didn't like them much, I never told the guy not to play them either I just gave my opinion because he mentioned them
Chained Echoes broke me
10:05 I've heard a lot about P5 but I haven't yet touched it. I really love deep story-driven RPGs but I fear that the high school setting just isn't my thing, so I've been holding off on it.
P5 Music is amazing too!
Ever made? Cobra Mission deserves a spot.
10 - Parasite Eve
9 - Yakuza - Like a Dragon
8 - Shin Megami Tensei V
7 - Final Fantasi XVI
6 - Persona 3
5 - Like a Dragon: Ishin!
4 - Nier: Automata
3 - Persona 5
2 - Chained Echoes
1 - Persona 4
You're welcome.
Ah yes, one more thing: Persona series games have zero appeal on me.
Thank you for the list
Goated list tbh.
If you haven't already tried it I recommend "I have no mouth, and I must scream" very dark game but many of the concepts in it are shared with Nier Automata and may have even inspired it to an extent (wouldn't surprise me if Yoko Taro read the book it was based off or played the game) like Nier Automata it touches you in the feels having multiple endings but the difference being there is minimal change between each character True/good ending. It's also one of the few games where the BAD ENDING is the cannon ending and the good ending is a head canon. The good ending though may have inspired the whole plot of Nier automata, if you know, you know, no spoilers. Just a fair warning this shit is completely sadistic and dark and even the cut content is a bit disturbing.
Chained Echoes looks cool, never heard of it till meow.
Alcohol, takoyaki, burger, BEEF bowl, beer, salad, earl grey tea, and then BLENDED COFFEE. Clearly M rated.
My top 10 mature rating (Which makes your rating child like) Kill la kill -IF, Gun Gal, Skyrim, Kenshi, DOA, GTA, Staint Row IV, BloodRayne, Akiba'S Trip and Senran Kagura Estival Versu. PS: you should call your rating top 10 best persona
Am I the only one that just couldn't get into Automata? I really wanted to. I've tried playing it, maybe, 3 times. I just couldn't get into it. Maybe I'm not getting too far into the game. Any thoughts or points I should play up to in the game to get a better feel for it?
The game has 5 "endings" before you truly beat the game. If you get through the first ending and it doesn't hook you then it just won't. It's a weird game for sure so don't feel bad about. I did the same thing with Nier Replicant. It bored me and I couldn't finish it.
This is kinda oftopic but I found it funny that the DVDs snd Blue Rays fore the Anime "Made in Abyss" season 1 and Made in Abyss Dawn of the Deep Soul got an age rating of 12 in my region while the much tamer Persona 5 got an 16.
Pretty good list. I hear the next Dragon Quest game might be rated M.
Could be interesting if so!
I sure hope for it. I like the classic fantasy setting, but it feels like a game for children with some random dark moments.
Hope that after FF xvi success, they make a dragon quest for adults.
the first one... was that a prologue to the third birthday game? or is it a whole different game with coincidentally the same mc?
They lost the rights to the name so 3rd Birthday is technically parasite eve 3.
Really enjoyed Chained echoes but I was unable to finish the game because of a glitch. So sad it was a great game.
Final fantasy type-0 definitely deserved more than a passive mention tbf
First video on your channel I watched and I was continuously growing anxious as I saw Persona 3 and 5. I kept saying to myself "If persona 4 isn't first place bro 😂"
Real talk tho, nice video
Persona 5 Royal is the best IMO, and I have played P3 and P4 as well.
Shadow hearts, original and covenant! I think today's "M" rate i getting too soft!
I refuse to watch your Final Fantasy XVI review until I am done playing it lol so I cannot wait to hear why you think it's controversial. Anyway there are a lot of games on this list that I have not played... Will I? Find out next week on Dragon B--- Whoops! 🤪
I really need to give Parasite Eve a run. I have it ready to go on my Vita
Please add time stamps on the future
Still hoping Chained Echoes gets a physical version.
First print games are handling the physical release in Europe. Not sure for the States.
Per-so-na! ... Oh, I'm not sure if Catherine (the original version) is considered a JRPG, but I thought it was a pretty great game myself.
Me playing persona 5, oh this is fun. 2 hours in a girl we were talking to jumps off a rooftop. Me "WTF!" ok you have my attention.
I do think the theme of "adults bad" (simplified I know) got a bit heavy handed but ya P5 is fantastic.
I really need to get Chained Echos everyone raves about that game.
Onechanbara lol there is a literal body paint outfit and yes all paint
Haha wow!
7 games and 3 persona with M rated the ranking.
Someone needs to play more then Persona
There are shockingly few good M-rated JRPGs lol.
Somehow my brain farted completely and I didn't get this whole video and must've missed the whole intro where you specify they have to be M rated. (not have mature themes or story's) Because I was wondering where games like Xenogears,Valkyrie Profile,Front Mission, Parasite Eve etc,
@@controlroomguythe first game was parasite Eve, you might need some sleep
@@morriganrenfield8240 hahaha:D
@@controlroomguy
I want to get a switch, but yakuza like a dragon makes me want to get a ps5. What should I get Morrigan?
Yakuza Like A Dragon is one of, if not the single best JRPGs ever made.
what about most fan service games? Like League of Maidens for example.
Timestamp would be a nice addition to your videos
I find it funny how everyone loves P4G except me. I played 5 first, then 3 FES, then tried 4G and I got I think 30-40% of the way through and just never went back. I think it’s been 3-4 years now. It simply wasn’t compelling, at all. Doesn’t help I got it on PC and drastically prefer playing with a controller and struggled hard to make that work… but still. It’s the only one I didn’t finish. 5 is way better, imo. I’m convinced anyone who prefers 4 just has some nostalgia bias. Not that it’s not good… I’m sure it’s great… but the nostalgia puts it over 5 for anyone who prefers it. Otherwise, it’d be 2nd at best.
I am glad to find out that we share a deep love for the modern Persona games
Yakuza Like a Dragon was probably my game of the year when it came out. Such a wonderfully done game. I do own persona 5 and haven’t gotten around to it yet. Perhaps when I am done with the Yakuza series or if I get tired of it. 😅
My favorite M-Rated JRPG is Shadow Hearts
Will you do the Adult rated next lol?
I don’t think there are any 😂
@@TheGamingShelfthere are, but they are only on steam.
0:57 Noice ;3.
Persona 3 had language? The only time I heard an F-Bomb was in Persona 5 Strikers and maybe Catherine if you count that one. 6:09 Least revered? Seriously? I liked it more than 4. Nyarly loves this one. I prefer Persona 5 more though. Hopefully the remaster of Persona 3 becomes the definitive version (oh wait it lacks the female protagonist and the answer >_
ah yes 4 smt series in top 10, tho i agree as well, might get annoyed if smt doesn't show up here.
I can't believe it wasn't mentioned in the persona series that one of the most controversial aspects of those games and why they are rated M is they sexualize underage highschoolers and in persona 5 you could hook up with a teacher and a pharmacist and your supposed to be 17 which is also a bit hypocritical to the message at the beginning of the game with Ann and the gym teacher and how that was wrong but then let's you hook up with a teacher and pharmacist. Lol
If Persona 4 had the story from Persona 3 it would be an AMAZING game
FF 16 would be rated T back in the 90's. I feel it doesn't fully merit the M.
It’s funny how ersb and cero look at things . Persona 5 and smt v 15 and up here it’s instant m rating . Dq 11 all ages while here upgrade to teen
Huh interesting! I wonder what accounts for those difference?
what do you mean deserve to be ported off to switch? SMT 5 is switch exclusive.
It would be nice to have it running at higher resolutions and frame rates.
I have Chained Echoes in my switch library I hope to pick it up eventually
interstresting he talks about rated m games when the game in the ad could of been called "bewbs the RPG"
I still don't understand why Pokémon wasn't never rated M.
A man of culture 🤌
with all these Persona games being rated M...you think that Metaphor Re:Fantazio will be rated M too? (chances are high that it will be).
Absolutely. I’d be shocked if it wasn’t.
Speaking of Persona 5 one of your confidants is an alcoholic and nearly all your meetings with her happen at a bar.
Haha true.
This list gave me some serious quandaries to ponder. Is every RPG made in Japan a "JRPG"? I didn't really think so. I imagined a JRPG as being something along the lines of Final Fantasy. There are certainly RPGs made in Japan that draw from different models.
Can a thoroughly German game be a "JRPG"? By my previous definition, I would have thought so, but having some action RPGs in the list and then throwing Chained Echoes into the mix leaves something of a two-tiered definition: "RPGs made in Japan of any style" and "RPGs that are of a traditional Japanese style"
The J stand for Japan, so if it's not made by a Japanees develloper it's not a JRPG
SMT V is soooo good. I sunk so much time into it over my playthrough. I agree it could benefit from a port, but I also love it just as is.
Man all I want is a port to PC of the first 2 and the Devil Summoner games....they were so damn good in PS2 era.
How is Yakuza: like a dragon not way higher on the list if I'm being completely honest it EASILY be in the top 3 best jrpg games of all time, if you haven't played it, forget about everything else and try it ASAP
Was expecting more JRPG in this JRPG list
