"Bravely Default is finally making its way to North American 3DSes this Friday, and it happens to throw a couple of JRPG characteristics for a loop.
Take random encounters for instance. For the first time ever in a JRPG, one will be able to control the amount of random encounters a player steps into with a simple change in the options menu. Players can opt to turn them off completely if they so choose. No Mrbl3, Repel or Diablos “No Encounter” skills needed.
Nevertheless, the game still features the kinds of features we expect from certain eastern RPGs, like the job system and chibi character designs. This got a bunch of us reminiscing about the kinds of tropes we most enjoy out of a JRPG. So join us as we try to make sense of our love for the genre." - Pixelitis Staff

Final Fantasy VII 1997 exceeds 15.5 million units sold worldwide as of February 2026, reinforcing its legacy as the series best selling title.
I’d love to know how many units have been sold of all the Final Fantasy VII franchise games, including the original, the remakes, spin offs such as Crisis Core, and mobile games Ever Crisis. I bet a fair few copies.
Modern day publisher be like: "Failed to meet sales expectations. Pivoting to live service."
It's an absolute legend of a game. And I honestly really love how the remake trilogy is shaping up so far.
Final Fantasy 7 is one of the most iconic video games of all time, with it helping to changed the RPG landscape when it was released in 1997.
If you already own it... There, I saved you the click on a deliberately misleading article.
I bought the game yesterday on steam for $4 because Square Enix is trying to replace it with a version that has no mod support.
Prior to yesterday, I had no idea the game had so many great mods until people started making a fuss out of it.
