"Octopath 2 is the best JRPG"
*proceeds without giving any arguments or comparisons*
-Octopath 2 fans"Persona is peak turn based combat""Xenogears has the best story of all JRPGs""SMT V is what I hoped from Pokemon!""Unicorn Overlord is not an autobattler. FE is an autobattler."

I'm a Falcom fanboy but Daybreak was shockingly bad. The game is incredibly easy and there is a lot less gameplay depth than even the original Trails FC.

"Final Fantasy 9 is a good game/great game/the best game in the series"
Apparently it's also been long enough that zoomers are saying, "akshually, Chrono Cross was good" now.

I know this is a bit off topic. But doesn't it feel weird when Japanese developers talk about “wide appeal” as if their stuff wasn't made to appeal to as many people as possible? It's a strange universe where they and anime fans feel persecuted even though anime is mainstream and does everything it can to be relevant.
>Everyone must be beautiful
for some reason background is irrelevant
>fashion sense
everyone wears designer clothes despite their background saying otherwise
>Everyone knows kung fu
Uganda
>Tropes, tropes on top of tropes
tropey written to the point that you can predict the plot from the first line of dialogueEven the difficulty part is bullshit. When ball busting difficult games are best selling games

>FF10 is one of the best video games of all time, period
These two opinions only exist in the absolute wasteland of movie-game supremacy, where every single sentiment and emotion needs to be spoonfed to you through repetitive dialogue and frequent cinematic cutscenes. The fallout of such games dominating the genre results in people thinking movies can be great games, and that great games that aren't movies somehow have "no story".

What is best final fantasy and why is it chrono trigger. Sure chrono trigger is the best Square game hands down, but it's a not a final fantasy, so the premise is all wrong.

I just hate how much time every single JRPG wastes. They seem to relish disrespecting your time even with the animations that come in between animations, menu scrolling, battle intros, battle outros, flourishes. They use the same brush they use to make those 25 minute cutscenes to make every other aspect of the game down to menu fonts. And that brush is a paint roller.

then you realize trails is pretty good as far as jrpgs go, especially Sky - CS2 where the story was moving rapidly.

"Just grind", no, you need to git gud and actually use your options. Every JRPG you can think of has challenge runs that range from "low level" to complete insanity.

That most of the stories are about killing God, when most of them are about killing the equivalent of satan or a false deity pretending to be a god
