I was watching a retrospective look at the SNES and people were talking about how fondly they remember games like Final Fantasy II, Chrono Trigger, and Secret of Mana. For some reason I remember not messing with the RPG genre at all until PSX.

My 1st experience was watching my friend play Final Fantasy VII. The graphics were crazy @ the time so I was impressed. I tried the game myself and could never wrap my head around letting enemies hit me. shyt just bothered me...that I was forced to trade licks.

The only RPG I ever legit beat was Grandia II on Dreamcast. I actually enjoyed the hell outta that game and the combat system. I can't figure out what I did with the disc being I still have my beloved Dreamcast. Guess I need to burn some ish and fire that sucker back up.

So I said that to say this recommend a noob some RPGs...I don't care what system I have them all in some form *cough* Emulator *cough* or another.

If you haven't beaten "Chrono Trigger" at the very least, you lost. That is arguably the GOAT RPG.

Pokemon red blue yellow were the closest thing until Fallout for me. Theyre hard to appreciate as much until you're older I think

Vagrant Story was mad underrated. The world of Ivalice was a creative concept by Squaresoft back then.
