what jrpg are you playing right now ?
- Thread starter isual
- Start date
Probably the best path. Frankly the full game has a ton more content and is practically the same price. Doesn't make sense that they don't discount it by at least half.
Seriously, I can't wait to get a new PS3 and start a new playthrough. I just realized I won't be able to do a grade-shop'd NG+ since I obviously lost my saves with the last PS3 I had but eh, it's fun enough to do a fair second playthrough. Unless I find a way to get a finished game save file to work.

It's really fun spending time together like that. It's like a playable cinematic experience. My boyfriend and I spend a lot of the time playing through quite a bit of video games.
I've got sooo much jrpg's on my backlog. I'm almost done with raidou 1, and afterwards may go for raidou 2.
I'm also on my way to getting the last badge in poke heartgold, and maybeee start up dq6 and finish it afterwards.
My ff11 sub will end on June 2. hnnnngh. ff14 is coming in august, and then...GOTY 2013 Rome 2. hnnnnnngh

You know, it may just be me, but everytime I play a tales game, I seem to never get those 'special' super combos done.
I stick with one skill, then whenever another one unlocks, or the current one I'm using maxes out, I switch.

I dropped Vesperia (but hey, I got farther in it than the last time I tried) and picked up Wild Arms 3 again thanks to this thread. This is another one I haven't beaten, and playing it now I'm not sure why... I'm loving it! (Strained "birds!" and "wings!" and "flying!" metaphors aside. Lookin' at you, Virginia.) I had this idea WA3 was a crazy-long game, but my roommate's clear file is only about 30 hours so it obviously can't be that lengthy. I wonder what gave me that impression.
IT'S TIME TO FLY!
As for the time, it's worth noting that the clock does not go up when you're in menus, so that could cut the time down some. But the game isn't super long, no.
Not sure which you're playing, but the PC version fixes a few of the bigger issues from the 360 version.
PC version. I tweaked the .ini file from various sources. It plays a lot better now.

Just finished the main story of Tales of Graces f and started the future arc. Playing Graces so close to Xillia's release was probably a bad idea; I felt all Tales-ed out hours before the end. Also in the middle of a lengthy sabbatical from Fire Emblem: Awakening, which is a great JRPG to jump in and out of because there's not a whole lot to forget (as opposed to something like Xenoblade, which I played 50+ hours of and then dropped suddenly almost a year ago).

Pokemon Red Randomized.
Just finished Wild ARMs 2. I did a lot of the optional content but decided not to take on the superbosses. I have too many other games to get to. I clocked around 37 hours, some of that was idle time. I haven't decided if I like it more or less than Wild ARMs, the first thing that sticks out in my mind is that I didn't really care for the world map of Wild ARMs 2, if that makes sense.
I have Grandia 2 and 3 in the mail, those will be the next RPGs I get to, probably.

Drakengard.
Well, I'm trying anyway. I'm having that problem where, I play Drakengard, and I grow kind of bored of it, and think, "Well, I mean, I rather play Nier..." So then I play Nier.

Drakengard is not a good game to begin with. It's tedious and clunky on all levels. It's rare, but I'd rather read that one particular "what is drakenguard" (it's a huge ass, but very interesting lets play as text).

It's one of my all time favorites.

I'm about 10 hours into The Last Story. I started it after getting bored of Ni No Kuni one night, and I love it so far.

Around three hours into the Last Story. I forgot what I was doing when I got to about CH10 or so and decided to start over. Enjoying it much more now that I took the time to actually understand the play mechanics. I love the big city and am really digging the characters. I have listened to the soundtrack way too many times, so it's nice to finally play the game that goes with it. I think I have a winner on my hands with this one.
Also, P3P. It's so addictive. Just one more floor man...gotta get another Persona for fusion.

No one wants a throne you've been sitting on!
Am playing this now.
Pretty damned good card game, for something that appears quite simple.

Actually balancing Blue Dragon and Ni No Kuni at the moment.
I know the feeling, but try not to think of it as ending the game. The moment you start thinking about a jrpg that way is the moment you begin cheating yourself out of a potentially great experience. Just enjoy the experience. If you start to feel like you're in a rush to finish it, it will only make the game feel progressively worse the longer you play. At least that's how it is with me. Many times I find myself wishing I had never finished certain jrpgs just so I can experience them like new again.

Devil Survivor Overclocked. Never did finish Yuzu's route in the original, did that first here and was impressed at how well hinted at secrets about the other routes.
I also cannot believe how much variance there is in this game. I skipped a bunch of events related to investigating the summoning server and the PSE laws, and the characters dialogues reflected this! And I just found out that there's a way to tick off Midori so that she teams up with Kaido and Black Frost to take on the party!

Absolutely do not miss Persona 3. One of the best jrpgs ever.

FFIX on mah Vita and I always have a Persona 4 game going at some level of attention.
I think this is what's going to happen with me with this game. It's just one of those jrpgs you'll stop, then play again much, much later on
To figure out which arcana hit triangle, go to personas, hit x, andbthen pick a persona. It should say its arcana somewhere near its name, I think it's right below but don't have it in front if me. You must still be pretty early on so Orpheus is fool, pixie is lovers, and apsaras is priestess. Look for those words on their status page.
To equip other characters talk to them on the first floor of tartarus or once you are in tartarus. Choose status/equip, etc.

Playing ni no kuni atm. While I love the characters, music, gameplay and graphics I find that the game tends to hold your hand far too often, making the game way easier than it already is.
