The BEST feature this game has is the fact that units keep the class abilities after they switch classes. I had a mean warrior/mage build that would wreck.

i totally loved the game series back then :) i was very into anime and RPGs and when i read a magazine review of it i had to get it and boy i liked it :D the whole "anime movie plus game" was awesome even if i couldn't watch the series before (.haack//sign) and it really wasn't required (unlike for .hack//GU i feel). I actually didn't know that an anime series existed (i don't think that the series was shown on German TV) but again i really didn't care since i loved the "kinda MMO" game and all the story. Until now i never did get the 100 % completion of the last game (to get the final ending). Also while i liked it that you could use the japanese voices.... it was weird that you only could use that AFTEr you finished the game :( Sadly .hack//GU remaster was a little bit butchered since they increased the EXP gain making grinding or "side story stuff" quite irrelevant since you easily got overlevelled. I also got some starter decks of the .hack//enemy card game which is also kinda neat. I also found it funny when at the beginnig they try to read the german text...and while it's good the way they pronounced it and put emphasis on some words made it sooo bad xD

While i kinda loved it....i hated the slow ass battles. Even ff games were quicker

Awesome video! Can you do one about FFTA2?? Thank youuu!!!

So nostalgic!

Praise the algorithm for giving me more oldschool AC content! Nice coherent review. Subbed

You just made a tutorial 100x better than what Piccolo was trying to convey at the start of the game. So much of it makes sense now. Thank you!

"Characters were sent to another dimension" Okay but given how Otherworld works, I think this is technically correct lol

Still got it , good shit

Hey Billum, nice review, well I think that because I did play the original on the NES way back then, even with is bugs, I always love to go back and make a run on it :)

Ivalice exists as a support for these kids to avoid despair. Despair that can be solved if they face reality and get over their insecurities. Ivalice also takes away any incentive from them to face reality as it solves their problems. Which means they dont have to face reality, making them more and more dependent on the illusion. The only way to develop their character is to make them understand their own flaws(what Marche does) and have them change themselves. At that point Ivalice becomes unnecessary as they have gotten over their issues. "desire is the thread that binds this world together" Since they have gotten over their issues, they no longer desperately desire Ivalice, causing an auto shut down. Its classic eastern storytelling.

Recommending Lunar the gba version is mad crazy you could recommend the psp version idk how much it's take to beat but I've really enjoyed it

The backtracking critique is repeated a lot in reviews, but it’s not accurate. You can get everything and only have to return to a stage once to Tunnel Rhino. You just need to plan your route smartly.

I love the final fantasy love here!!

My favorite Indy JRPG is Cthulu Saves the World. Short, Sweet, and a little different.

I love your retrospectives. I recently played the pixel remasters during a Final Fantasy benge I was doing where I was 100% platinum trophying every Final Fantasy. Only have Lightning Returns and X-2 to complete.

Imagine if this becomes a movie

Small donation for a solid and clear retrospective of a game that has consumed too much of my spare time!

I put more hours into this one game than just about every other game I've played combined. And, in addition to other games, I also put too many hours to feel OK revealing into GTA V, Skyrim (multiple re-issues, too), and Baldur's Gate 3... and this game trumps them EVEN WHEN COMBINED. I can't wait for it to come to the Switch, hopefully.

Oh God I love me some The Last Story love! Feel like everyone slept on that one after Xenoblade came out

I had Croc 1. I know i didnt get to the secret final boss/levels or whayver it was. Im definitely buying the remaster

Hey Billum, great list, yeah you should really play the other Phantasy Star especially the IV one, the very best!

He will always be Kumamon to me, best partner ever

I thought this game only went up to the Cell Saga because we never got that far. Lol

1:37 Hey, I have the same poster in my childhood bedroom!

Time for a LDW2🔥

I disagree with nearly every part of this video which is, nonetheless, very good

If this game ever got a remake I hope they don't touch the look of the overworld. Its just so timeless. The 3d combat can be brought up to Cyber Sleuth standards but those sprites are too perfect to be touched.

I always thought all the Phantasy Star games took place in one universe with the various settings just occurring at different times and locations. Edit is Robotrek, aka my favorite Quintet RPG, too long for the list or was it not included because it was so different from Quintet's other RPGs?

If we got a remaster I could die happy and giddy

This is a dream come true, I've seen other fan based, Games. Like how cool would it be to play megaman, Or the dude from contra... Maybe even the chick from supermetroid. On different type of platforms. Like shown in this video

Cosmic star heroine is really good and it's super fast paced. So it's perfect for someone who's really busy as a lot happens in an hours time from moment to moment. I haven't quite finished it but its about 15 hours or so.

As someone who has a severe illness causing me to spend 90% of my life to my bed or couch I'm having the exact opposite problem 😂 I keep burning through 10 to 15 hour games and need beefy 50 and 60 hour games. But at the same time, though I absolutely LOVE turn based rpgs, the battle systems can sometimes get reall monotonous and boring. Which is why I really adore the megaman battle network series and the mario and luigi series because they have a really active battle system. But I've been finding myself playing more and more metroidvania type games. But the downside is that most are pretty short or fall into that 10 to 15 hour slot.

Sekiro 🔥🔥🔥

Nintendo should hire this person

Honestly i enjoy using it with finishing plus just to double up

another good one that's not too long is Crosscode. To get through the main story you probably take probably 20-25 hours. Though it might be longer due to the game's difficulty

This is less of a review and more of a synopsis. Learn the difference.

cool video mate, just bought a ps2 and evergrace will be one of the first I try out!

I dunno. I gave it a shot, but with the first half being the most obvious possible suggestions on the planet and the last half being filled with random awful takes like the implication that Paper Mario is anything less than a masterpiece or, sickeningly, pointing new JRPG fans toward the complete embarrassment that was Lunar Legend just because you can't take a little silly humor in the original translations... I dunno, man. I think this kind of content is cool and I like seeing more retro game channels pop up but this one rubbed me a bit wrong lol. On top of other nitpicks like going on about Phantasy Star as a series when only the first really makes any sense for this video's topic, or mentioning Quintet's games which aren't reeeeeeeeally RPGs, etc...

I have always been amazed by the fact that people can breeze through the .hack franchise on the game side I have spent literal years playing through that franchise because alongside the games I followed the guide of which anime series takes place in-between the games and alongside the games same thing with the various manga released its been since 2009 and im still slowly taking my time fully immersing myself with my all time favorite non existent MMO. Thanks for making a good video about some great rpg games I got to enjoy and make great memories I made with my dad playing a lot of these.

PS1 is by far the best way to experience Lunar 1

"Welcome Back! To The Stage - Of History!"

Why can't they make these types of games today? It's a nice multiplayer game to produce, I think.

Awesome list of games few i didnt know about but, No parasite eve on this list? That's a great jrpg that only takes about 10-12hrs for the main game

I’m really enjoying indie RPGs. If I can get 10-15 hours out of a game and support small studios, it’s a win-win imo.

Great video!!! What version did you use for FF? It looks gorgeous!

Suikoden!!!!!! Between that and Chrono Trigger, I can see how they would be beatable quickly. But I had to uncover every secret in both. Then do the New Game + on Chrono. And find all endings. Took a bit longer

The Switch port of Phantasy Star 1 is fantastic.
