Thread 12168113

So... this is pretty much the best rpg on the Playstation, right? I mean aside from the grammatically poor translation, Pokemon voice acting, maze-like dungeons and unexplained mechanics. The time limit and constant pressure of training people to send to Valhalla, hard but fair battle system, platforming, and chapter based gameplay loop are a lot more engaging than most other jrpg gameplay systems and the spritework and prerendered graphics are top notch.

I think it's really cool but Final Fantasy 7 is the best RPG for me. It's a masterpiece throughout.

Valkyrie Profile is the second best J-RPG of all time

The first is FF7

skill issue, learn a real language

No.
Vandal Hearts 2 is.
But VP is a pretty great game with amazing sprite work and unique gameplay.
I feel is one of the best first time RPGs since its so short and the gameplay to the point.
Only issue I can see is players needing a guide for the real end and tips on the good skills like surviving mortal attacks for some bosses.

>>12168113 (OP)
definitely the most overrated rpg on the playstation along with xenogears. nice presentation and a decent (not great) battle system are the only complements I can give it.

if you like an engaging plot, meaningful party members or dungeons that arent a complete pain in the ass theres nothing to find here.

VP is basically mostly a VN

Any game that so blatantly advertises itself as guidebait can never be the best anything
>ummmm actually Easy mode is Harder than Hard and also sorry you need to follow a specific path and explore BUT NOT TOO MUCH if you want the good ending ok also no new game plus so replay another 30 hours please thank you :), sorry also you only get one chance at fragile treasure so I hope you don’t get surprised by traps and drop a valuable item :)

>>12168113 (OP)
is there a hack that reduces combat animation time?

>>12168113 (OP)
I think there are better ones, but only that one has /ourguy/ Lezard

>So... this is pretty much the best rpg on the Playstation, right?
That would be the Wizardry remakes. If those don't count, then Torneko 2. And if that doesn't count, then either FF7 or OreShika.

my favorite ps1 jrpg. and i've never actually managed to get the true ending.

>>12170439
>chrono cross

>>12170429
I kneel.

>>12170429
what the fuck is unfinished about so2? literally one of the most content packed games on the system

>>12171341
the second planet and the ten wise men are clearly rushed out.

>>12171989
i mean the way they are dispatched one by one with hardly any plot development. They show up and that's pretty much it.

>>12171989
every FF feels rushed after disc 1 as well. vagrant story and parasite eve have rushed endings. valkyrie profile feels rushed all throughout. xenogears is... yeah. Im hard pressed to think of a jrpg that doesnt feel rushed at some point, besides dqvii which goes on 60 hours longer than it should have. and it certainly feels like splitting hairs when so2 has more replay value than all of these games by far with multiple protagonists, different difficulties, a large postgame and many playable characters you cant recruit all at once.

>>12172103
Dunno why you imply I said it was the only one with this issue (vagrant story clearly has its final third missing). I singled it out because it felt very blatant since they introduced the real baddies of the games and didn't do anything with them.
