Has there been a jrpg in the last 9 years that was not completely annoying?

[Snotnarok]

The Disgaea series has been very enjoyable to me. As far as proper jRPG, I'd say ...hmm Crimson Gem Saga for PSP, very good fun.

Golden Sun, never completed but still fresh.

Golden Sun was finished with its sequel.

...so?
[Evidently does not see what that has to do with anything]

I think he thought you meant golden sun as a series was never completed.

It isn't. Last I checked, they're making GS 3 for the DS.

That's almost incentive enough for me to buy one.

Golden Sun, didn't that come out within the last nine years? I liked that JRPG and it was for the GBA.

+3 Pwnage points for GS. Great game, one of my favorites.

Kingdom Hearts.

that's all I can think of right now.

Someone want to light a match I dont think the flame is big enough yet.

JRPGs have a set formula like WRPGs have a set formula. If you don't like it, just avoid it.

And there have been plenty of JRPGs out in the last 9 years that aren't annoying. The last two Persona Titles, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor, The World Ends With You, and I could go on but I don't want to.

Also going to recommend the Kingdom Hearts series. 2 is a little on the easy side. But easily fixed if you don't mine ordering Final Mix+ online and getting a Swap Magic so you can play it. Oh and having a translation guide out would help too for the new scenes that are not in english.

 

[NeutralDrow]

Of course there has. I'm just under no illusion that you give a damn.

If you did, I'd bring up Tales of Symphonia/Abyss/Vesperia, ToS: Dawn of the New World, Baten Kaitos and Origins, a few Final Fantasy titles, The World Ends With You, Kingdom Hearts, and some of the Persona series.

Nostalgia on the DS should bring back some memories of old-school JRPG´s.

Final Fantasy XII, the remake of Final Fantasy Tactics was purely amazing, the Kingdom Hearts series was also good, Disgaea is a great series, the tales of games are simply amazing, pokemon is still pretty good... there is a lot you just seem to be a JRPG hater...

The Disgaea series has been very enjoyable to me. As far as proper jRPG, I'd say ...hmm Crimson Gem Saga for PSP, very good fun.

*Hands you a cookie* You get much respect for mention Crimson Gem Saga, a nice buried treasure of a great throwback title.

The Disgaea, Persona, and Tales of games are all great choices. There have been plenty of great JRPG's in the past 10 years, it really just depends on what you actually find annoying.

Crimson Gem Saga is great, and almost no one knows about it. I got a recommendation from a youtube show called "Classic Game Room HD" they covered it in a review and I had had to have it.

I've been open to Final Fantasy alternatives for a long time, I haven't liked many of the series and I'm not about to go testing more FFs since I've disliked more than I liked.

 

[The Tommunist]

i always loved the original golden sun.

 

[geldonyetich]

I'm pretty sure this should have ended with "annoyance is subjective" on the first page.

 

[antipunt]

...until i discovered persona 3 that is

I actually did a review on CGS way back shortly after it came out in the reviews section. Great story and lovely artwork, I really hope for a CGS2 seeing as the ending left it open for a sequel.

[Jenniphurr]

the 2 that i just can't seem to get enough of is Radiata Stories, and SMT, Nocturne. i highly recommend Nocturne one the the most difficult rpgs in my opinion but very well done

 

[Cherry Cola]

Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne will kick your ass... And like a little masochist you will always come back for more.
