Hey guys, a friend of mine just asked me to recommend him RPG games for the PS4 but since I'm a PC gamer I came here looking for some pointers. What RPG games do you recommend? I also thought of The Witcher 3 since I've heard a lot of good things about it, but he never played the previous editions and we were both wondering if you could still enjoy the game, so help is appreciated that way, too.
Thanks!
I have a few but keep in mind that a number of them are also on Vita and/or PS3 as of right now:
-Sword Art Online Re:Hollow Fragment (Hollow Fragment - Vita)- Action JRPG that expands the story of S1 of the anime that is a mix of Phantasy Star Online, Xenoblade Chronicles and Monster Hunter. I highly recommend the game and the PS4 version does a lot to improve the issues the Vita version had (bad translation, expanded avatar creation system, online play, ect).
-Sword Art Online: Lost Song (coming sometime this fall) (Coming to Vita as well)- Action JRPG like Hollow Fragment but with the ability to fly, some of the mechanics being a bit different and a new story set in another MMO in the series world (ALO). If you pre-order the game on PSN in US now, you get Re:Hollow Fragment for free as well.
-Boodborn (PS4 only)- The best Sony exclusive right now; a great successor to the Souls games and from reports online, its a fantastic title
-Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (PS4 only)
-Dragon Age: Inquisition (PS4 only)
-Child of Light - Own this on Vita and I loved what I played of it; beautiful art style, great controls and interesting combat system all made the game very special
.
-Omega Quartet - JRPG by the team behind the Hyper Dimension series and while it is repordetly not the best JRPG for the system, it is one of the early 'big' ones. It has a interesting combat system and it looks like it might be fun
. And its on sale right now if your friend has PS+ too, so its a good deal at about 40 bucks (normally 60 bucks)
-Toukiden: Kiwami (PS4/Vita)- It is a Monster Hunter-like game made by Omega Force (Dynasty Warriors, Hyrule Warriors, Dragon Quest Heroes) and it is a great game; lots of weapon types, lots to fight and lots of gear to get. Didn't play much of the Vita version (never got around to getting it) but I heard great things about the title
.
There are a few more RPG's your friend can play too, so here is the link to all the games on the PSN store:
