So if you want to get into JRPGs but you've never so much as touched a Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest before, how do you know where to start? How do you know where to spend your time? How can you differentiate between silly tedium and fantastic adventures?
There’s no denying that the Nintendo DS was a very beefy little fella in its day. The handheld would even see a ton of epic, sprawling RPGs.
Gary Green said: We Europeans got royally screwed with the releases of the first six Final Fantasy games. I’m sure you’d find plenty of dodgy imports or bootlegs if you looked hard enough, but we never actually got a proper release for any of them, at least not for the first editions. There was a lot of xenophobia in gaming at the time, so anything Japanese getting released in the west at all was nothing short of a miracle. It was an ugly trend that continued well into the 2000s when worldwide releases became the new norm.
One of the most beloved entries in Square Enix’s long-running franchise is celebrating its 30th anniversary and that’s cause for celebration!
I'd rather it play more or less the same by have the 3D chibi graphics from Ever Crisis, I don't want them to change the story like they did with FF7R.
This arguably is my best game of all time out of the 40yrs I’ve been playing videogames

Square “HAPPY ANNIVERSARY. We got some news on the upcoming remakes, we got a shit ton of new VII merchandise, we have some other special community things planned and on, check out this cool 25th Anniversary logo specially created for VII’s big day”
So... From the Tales series, they suggest Vesperia - yeah, I can agree there - and Phantasia. How can you bring up the Tales series and not mention Symphonia? On a related note, please buy the Abyss remake and Graces f. I really want Xillia...
In my opinion the best game to start someone out on JRPG's is Final Fantasy X.
It is a very easy game to play through and understand. It's not so old that the graphics make it hard to get involved (In fact, it still holds up by today's standard pretty well), it's voiced over, and is very addicting, and it's very user friendly.
Also, with it being remastered PS3 and Vita only makes the offer sweeter.
Theres too many even this year to recommend.

There's alot of good JRPG's that should have been picked that they didn't...not some bad suggestions though...i'd start with the 16-bit era and go forward
