A magazine for discussing the JRPG genre

founded 1 year ago
 

This fall's looking as crowded as last year's was for me. The rest of the year is looking stacked, not even counting a half dozen games outside the genre I'm interested in.

Trails into Reverie, Nayuta, and Persona 5 Tactica are definite buys for me. Eiyuden Chronicle and the Suikoden remasters are theoretically coming out this year too. I'm also interested in playing Baten Kaitos again, though I'll probably put that one off.

What are you looking forward to this year?

@Ashtear Honestly, right this second I'm mostly interested in the revamp of Mario RPG lol

Crymachina looks interesting, but considering the similar title and the fact that its by the same devs as Crystar (FuRyu), I'm assuming its at least a spiritual sequel so I wanna finally get around to playing Crystar.
Sand Land and Metaphor look like they'll end up being must-buys, so they'll probably be the games that pushes me into getting a modern rig since I still play on a laptop thats only a bit stronger than a base PS4 lol.
Ys X also looks neat but I've only played Ys 1 & 2 so I've got alot of catching up to do, I've got time though considering how long NISA takes to ~~butcher~~ localize games.

good news, Ys X goes after Ys 2, chronologically

I'm playing in release order, not chronological
