    The SONY PSP being multi-region was one of the reasons why I loved this handheld.
    I could finally import games either from America or Japan and didn't have to worry about it being region locked from me since I was a PAL region gamer.
    So many great JRPGs that I imported from America when I realized that if a game came from Atlus or if a game came from XSeed, that was a clear indication for me to just simply import from America, don't wait for a PAL release because it would most likely never come.
    NISA at least had some games released into PAL region on the PS3, but on the PSP more often than not I had to import from America unless if it was a popular NISA game like Disgea for example.
    Everything else like from Square Enix and even Capcom or Konami, I looked for a PAL release before resorting to importing from America for just a few of those games from those well known Japanese publishers if they were too hard to find in local stores.
    When it came to music games and even visual novel games, Japanese Import was the only way for me to get those on the PSP especially for the Hatsune Miku Project Diva games that originally you could only import them from Japan before SEGA finally started to release that series into the west.

    Broo, give Tactics Ogre another try.
    Played it few weeks ago and finished it finally (after i started it few years ago and dont finished, so i started a new campagne).
    Music, Story, Characters, the three different paths how to play this game, the twists and the awesome destiny of some characters are just beautiful. Even the combat is great. Loved the mechanics and the tactics.
    For me: S-Tier

    Seeing Ys 7 not on S tier really hurt me. It was where the Ys series really pulled me deep in to the series for how great it played, it was what I considered as a "True Action JRPG". It would also be cool if you ranked the games "at the time" cause some of the games will get hit cause of the remakes. for example, God eater Burst

      True friend, that's exactly what you said. At first it is difficult, but then the game is easy.
      That's because he was not well balanced and the experience is frustrating at first and tedious at the end precisely because your character is very strong.
      So I recommend the one Vision MOD because the game is PERFECT, the classes are changed with different skills and weapons. The crafting system is simplified and you can use now 😅😅. The status of the equipment is more interesting and the game is much more balanced. (Still difficult, but in a much more strategic and enjoyable way)

Depois comecei o mod One Vision e jogo realmente ficou mais desafiador, skills que foram removidas deixaram as batalhas mais estratégicas e o jogo mais divertido, na minha opinião.

    Though I do admit that I needed a strategy guide downloaded from GameFAQs just to get past some moments in the game where I got lost and didn't know what I should do or what dungeon I should have been in.
    But after the first few dungeons and as soon as you meet a few other girls in the game, it turns out to be a really enjoyable and comedic game as the interactions with each girl is like a dating sim game that is a major plus in my book.

    A little hard to play due to the language barrier, but it is not too hard and at least you didn't require a translation just to get into the game which is always important to consider before importing a game from Japan.

      In other videos, he says that he played "insert name of the game" for 2/3 hours. He therefore does not go deeply into each game. It's normal as he will not spend 20 hours on games he dislikes or finds average; leading to a possible issue since some games show their full potential after 5/10 hours (a concrete example being Suikoden V). The job remains nonetheless amazing :)

    Growlanser: Wayfarer of Time is a good game but one that requires you to level grind loads before you face any of the later bosses especially the final boss.
    This also has dating sim elements that I love and the Catgirl Alien is the best character in my view especially when she wears like a leopard one-piece swimsuit, if Barbarella was a Catgirl she would look like her.

Compared to the Playstation version there is a different arrangement of the items and two more Familiars and a different voice cast as well. So you missed an Action RPG that was unique to the PSP release.

    I can’t recommend “Unchained Blades” enough!!! I know Erick Langdon wasn’t a fan, but if you like dungeon crawlers, is excellent. Some of the best characters and characterizations on the PSP. Maybe of that generation, honestly. It starts out kind of ridiculous with an obnoxious main character, but stick with it. (Also, forget “VC2”, play the fan-translation of “Valkyria Chronicles 3”. One of the best game in the series. Really, really cool story and characters. So good that I’m honestly surprised Sega hasn’t done a remaster or re-release at least.

    Zentai Hero Project: Unloosing Ranger Vs Dark Death Evilman.
    That is perhaps the funniest JRPG game and knowing it is from Nippon Ichi Software before the American branch went downhill, this should let you know how funny this game is.
    This is also a parody of the entire Ultraman/Kamen Rider/Super Sentai/Power Rangers/Tokusatsu genre of Japanese Entertainment and it is a real blast to play just for the story of it.
    Though it is a Dungeon Crawler and you will be dying loads of times so you can't be afraid to die and loose your gear a few number of times.

  • @emmychansuper

    Let me clarify this:
    Black Rock Shooter is a song sung by Miku Hatsune (with a PV) that the anime is based on, thus the JRPG is based on.

    I was just thinking about what a nice library the PSP has then came across this video.. I like how the viewpoints here on this channel are different.. I’d have to say Trails in the Sky has to be #1 for me so far followed by Jeanne DArc & Valkyria Chronicles 2 if we’re actually lumping all the RPGs together.. However I feel the SRPG genre is broad enough to stand on its own..
    Another thing we agree with is how the heck Valkyria Chronicles III was never available.. Its as crazy as the Boxers Road story which is the only PSP import I currently have.. Then again I’m a huge boxing fan so etc etc
