Great ranking. I love many games you mentioned. Xenoblade 1, 2, 3, SMTV and Astral Chain are my top favorites. Monster Hunter Rise, MH Stories 2, Atelier Ryza series are very good aswell.
The way you talk about these games really makes me enthusiastic to play them. I own but not yet played Live a Live, XC DE, XC3, DQ XI S, P5R, Ni No Kuni, and a few others. I own and played BotW and started TotK, but now I am into Nier Automata. I definitely want to buy XC2 and Astral Chain now too. Thanks for your awesome and honest review. Cheers!
Amazing list! I find it satisfying that I own quite a few of the games on this list. I'm currently about to start playing Fire Emblem Engage. Seems like a great journey ahead!
That chapter describtions got me I am laughing haha. I love how you did it, especially the " Edelgard was wrong" title. As Fire Emblem three houses was my first switch game I bought switch for and I have played around 400 hours so far. Going for another playtrough sometimes this year, just hearing the music makes me want to cry... I am The Legend of Heroes addict but damn they are long. 70 hours in ToCS 3 and I begun chapter 4. 100 hours easily every game no kidding. Currently working with gf abroad for 6 months and took switch with me. Got lot of games that were on my backlog for a long time I bought physical, but never got to play them (thanks to pc online games mostly) so now I have so many options available and your list helped me sort it out.. well sort of. lol Xenoblede 1, 2, Torna and 3 (never played before), Persona 5 (ps5 version didnt hook me, so handheld will probably be more comfy for evenings), Astral Chain, Nier Automata, Octopath Traveler 2 and SMT5. Currently getting trough ToCS3 as well as Xenoblade chronicles 1 (when cold steel 10 hours of dialogue is too much for me). Great content I love it!
Persona 5 and Astral Chain are both absolutely phenomenal. Coincidentally, I played them for the first time back to back and I just couldn’t believe how much I enjoyed them. You’re in for a treat 😁
@@badmeetsevil6163 alternative title: "Kill every last one of them!" haha its the universal answer to anything happening in the series. Cant go wrong with that describtion of the game.
Thank you! Altho Astral chain I saw is like 20hours of action, but Persona is gonna be like 70? ish? So maybe I am better off starting with this, or do one Platinum game, that being either Nier or Astral chain, follow it up with 70-100hrs long jrpg or swap between them based on mood, and then finish off with another Platinum game that I didnt play at first. @@worldsboss
@@Aizengale Persona 5 Royal took me around 120 hours, and I know that sounds incredibly intimidating, but I don’t regret a second of it. It took me a few months to actually roll credits on it, but you could probably play both at the same time and still be ok.
I just finished Monster Hunter Story 2. I have to say that it was very addictive along with the story line. I spent 75+ hours on this also still have extended gameplay after main story to go 😅 have to tell my self to take a break!
Thank you for this list. It really helps me alot to decide buying a switch as i thought there isnt that much rpg on this console but i was wrong. keep on creating rpg list. thank you and kudos!
Yea, but at least Triangle Strategy is new. I think the list omitted ports for a reason. If it didn't, stuff like Ni No Kuni, Tales of Vesperia, Grandia 1/2, FFVII and FF IX would dominate the list. These all got physical releases too.
Watching this makes me realise how many great exclusive RPGs released on this damn system lol. Astral Chain, Xenoblade 3, Triangle Strategy, FETH, MH Rise+Sunbreak, SMT V etc., stone cold classics. It’s even crazier to think that it will get even better on the Switch 2, what with stronger hardware and more devs that will take the system seriously from the beginning (looking at you Atlus 🙄).
Something very small and unique about JRPG SKIES OF ARCADIA is that the main character has 2 girls who like and travel with him and romance is not even the main genre of the game. AND ALSO ITS NOT SOMETHING STUPID WHERE YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE 1 OR THE OTHER
Thats my problem with JRPGS can be unnecessarily long wanted to play Persona ever since i was young and now that im an adult and own the console , man i had to drop P5 an hour in because of the excessive needlessly long dialogue and diversions. Looked it up and was right its handholding tutorial stops at around 20 hours in which is crazy and on average need 120 hours to complete. Its really tough as an adult with not so much free time. Tried to look into shorter series established series and most of them have a bunch of previously release iterations that you need to go through to catch up.
I'm a big fan of Xenogears and Xenosaga, so now I'm trying out Xenoblade Chronicles, seeing what it's like. I'm starting with the third game, which people say is the best, but I also have the first one.
Imo, there are a few other games that deserve a spot here, like Tales of Vesperia DE, Ni No Kuni 1 and 2, Bravely Default II, Ys VIII and IX, Fate Samurai Remnant, Rune Factory 5, Trials of Mana. Otherwise, great and almost complete list.
No Ni no Kuni ? No Final Fantasy VI ? No Tales of Symphonia? No YsVIII ? No Trials of Mana? If ports are disqualified, why is Valkyria Chronicle 1 and The World Ends with You on your list? (Although I agree that Valkyria Chronicles 1 should be on your list, it's a phenomenal game.)
Your comment is a great example of why Neo The World Ends With You was a truly awful name from a marketing perspective. This isn’t the game that originally launched for the DS, this is the newer sequel that came out for Switch and PS4 in 2021. They look exactly the same in trailers though, so I do get it.
@@steafhalvarez1989 You gamers y’all just love to complain don’t you? This is OJ’s PERSONAL top choice of JRPG games on the Switch! And they’re just 25 of them in the title at that. Not EVERY RPG that you like has to be exactly what HE likes, let alone be on the top 25 list! Also how dare you put the Xenoblade Chronicles series in the category of BASIC!
Your list is very basic and most of those game would have been considered a action adventure game back in the day. That tales of games don't belongs on no list when you remaster a game and Break it.
@@bethanyh1637 how do you define an RPG? IMHO: 1. Is there a Level up system with STATS increase. 2. Do you have HP, MP or SP? 3. Do you have some kind of skill tree or any other grow system? 4. Is it Story heavy? 5. Can you explore the world? 6. Any craft system? 7. Any shops to buy items? I did not play Astral Chain, but if all above is answered with a Yes, Astral Chain is an RPG.
my all time favorite jrpg series is the Tales Of Series. but Xenoblade has become my #2 . well its pretty close with Xenoblade and Dragon Quest. however for me Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is my favorite of the series thus far . i love all 4 games but XB2 just holds a special place for me .
Im still trying to find that one switch game with blue menues and it shows the the party together i think 3 or so very artsy and there was a witch character too
Once Atlus releases a mainline SMT game with actually good story, characters, and alignments, SMT V is going to be forgotten so quickly. People will struggle to remember anything about it other than "It's the one with the femboy protagonist and uhhhh.... deserts."
@@anab0licRegardless, when a franchise's claim to fame is the alignment system, you'd think they'd put more effort into that system than just making it a Mass Effect 3 style 'choose your ending'
Same Here. Playing Smt4 and 3, I think five was just lackluster. Something about 5 has the inspiration of smt3 nocturne but fails to capture the spirit of 3 nocturne and world-building of 4.
@@athorem Is that really its 'claim to fame' though? For me these games are mostly about the combat mechanics/demon fusion/party customization. That's why this game is often referred to as 'Pokémon for adults.'
I also really love ff12 zodiac age but I'm its a ps2 game remastered so probably doesnt could but that is soo good to play on switch. Also smt3 nocturne
Xenoblade 3 is phenomenal i actually respect it as number 1. But for me my list is 1.persona 5 2. Nier automata 3. Dragon quest 11 4. Xenoblade 3 5. Fire emblem three houses 6. Monster hunter rise 7. Xenoblade 2 8. Smt5 9. Octopath traveller 10. Dragon quest builders 2
It is truly a pitty that Fate Samurai Remnant is THE best RPG out there on the Switch and it's not getting all the fuzz it deserves. I have clocked so far 40+ hrs in this game so I can give a solid opinion on how good this game is.
It's a very good RPG for sure, but far from the best on Switch with the likes of SMTV, Xenoblade 3, FE Three Houses and Dragon Quest XI S available on the platform.
@@Murasakitsuyukusa it's all about preferences, no game has hooked me like Fate Samurai, the more I play the better it gets, both in the mechanics and the story.

IMHO is deserves a seat in the top 5 at least. I played all the games you mentioned except SMT V, DQ XI feels like a kid's game, the monster designs can hardly be taken serious.

There are only two endings to Sea of Stars. You keep acting lile there are several. You can find secret "developer" room, if you want to count that as a third, but it's not a true ending of the game.

In my opinion Dragon Quest XI S is the best jrpg on Switch. Its just that good.
Astral chains has very similar ties to chaos legion from the ps2 era. The sword, arrow, fist legion etc.
In no world would I rank sea of stars over chained echos.

25:11 The franchise has always been innovating and changing things up so I wouldn’t say predictable
Predictability isn’t the samething as tradition
They have always experimented with new concepts and mechanics
Like breeding,natures,abilities, following pokemon, overworld encounters, physical special split, mega evolution,Zmoves, gigantamax/dynamax amie/refresh/camping, even motion controls from let’s go do these features not count as evolving/progressing are these things not ambitious?
The restructuring of the traditional Pokémon format by having the third legendary as the main focus not to mention being the first Pokémon games ever to do DLC and the regional evolutions
Also the various QoL stuff even having dynamax and gigantamax and you would not have SV without the wild area all of these new ideas and things for the franchise
Are these not ambitious
I mean all these things have changed the franchise in substantial ways
Every generation offers something ambitious is replacing gyms with trials not ambitious? Or making the galar league a tournament like the anime instead of a traditional elite four is that not ambitious
Sure none of them have ever been this super drastic
But to say it’s “finally evolving” is a bit disingenuous
Has the steps in previous games been a bit smaller I mean sure
But baby steps and even medium steps is still progression
Why do we count this and not those
Shouldn’t it all count?
