i thought I was about to beat the final boss in SaGa, at the end of the fight the main character turned towards the screen and thanked me and now the game just keeps going and I have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing. Pretty cool

hit chapter 2 in bravely default and theres a massive difficulty spike. i'm really pleased at how tough this game is so far, basically every boss battle's come down to a nail biter. i thought the last boss of chapter 2 would be super easy because hes a berserker and you get a bunch of ways to mitigate phys damage but he just has so much HP and his attacks do so much damage that he can just wear you down. my only mechanical complaint so far is that the gambler class ability loving sucks and makes leveling it a drag, although the passives are so insane that you want to on everyone

Something about spring makes JRPGs hit different. Playing Bravely Default 2 and I’m gonna start Dragon Quest IV I think.

I saved up JP orbs to use on Gambler for exactly that reason

Also fun tip for that boss: Freelancer's Purge skill can remove his berserk status

Bravely Default 2 is awesome so far, I've just finished the prologue and I feel like I'm learning about the combat all the time.

The boat exploration is cool as well, now I can grind at work.

The more I read about Saga Scarlet Grace the more I want to play it. It seems like the most user friendly Saga game ever made

it's really fuckin good, it and saga frontier are the two best ways to start in on saga. it still has all the cool saga jank but it's way behind the scenes and you dont have to fully dive in in order to play the game, and imo it has the best battle system in the series. very fuckin cool game

it was 50% off on the last holiday sale when i got it and goes on sale pretty regularly, itll def be 10 bucks sometime this year. highly recommend, it seems like a massive game before even considering that there are three different routes and you can NG+ it like 3 times per character apparently. and the combat system consistently owns throughout, one of those JRPGs where turn order and status effects are supremely important BUT every single turn is a gamble bc its saga so things wildly swing at the worst and best times...it owns.

DQXI was the first JRPG I played in years and it made me fall in love with the genre. Bravely Default 2 just came out for switch and the writing and characters are really cute and funny imo. Some of the best voice acting ever too.

Normally I'd recommend Chrono Trigger as an intro to JRPGs but I don't think that's on the Switch SNES app. If it has to be PS4 or Switch I'd say Dragon Quest XI.

definitely DQ11, although also any of the FF7-10 ports (especially 9). ni no kuni also has some super good stuff writing-wise. i also hear a lot of people saying poo poo about the atelier games having good character work, although they seem real fuckin horny to me and i'd tread with caution

Thanks everyone!

Is the PS4 version of DQXI better if both are the definitive edition? I typically use Switch docked.

switch imo just for versatility, the game looks a bit better on ps4 but not enough that its really noticeable. no real difference though, i'd say get whichever's cheapest/easiest for you to play
