So, Flist! I've been pretty bored, lately... and some new games would fix that! I'm going to make a list of all of the games I have. It's not much, but looking at them would you guys be able to look through them and then tell me more games that I might like, judging on what I've played? I only have a DS, PS2 and Gamecube right now, but I'm saving

GrimGrimoire? It's a strategy RPG though, dunno if you like those.

Okage has a really fun story but the battle system and dungeons are kinda dull.

IF YOU HAVE A GAMECUBE GO PLAY TWILIGHT PRINCESS.

I actually might check out grimmgrimiore. it was made by the same studio as odin sphere, and that game was beautiful.

[drivebywizard]

Oh yeah--it's a really nice game visuals-wise. If you don't mind the story/battle/story format you should check it out.

Odin Sphere had that, too! There'd be a chunk of the story, a dungeon/ring thing, then another chunk, then a boss fight.

I don't know your feelings on strategy-RPGs, but Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance is one of my favorite things to hit the GameCube. The sequel, Radiant Dawn, is on the Wii but I should note that it is balls to the wall hard.

My other favorite Cube game is Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem. I normally don't really like the survival horror genre at all, but even I love ED.

Over in PS2 land: it looks like you like RPGs! The Shadow Hearts games are pretty fun, if you can find them. They're kind of hilarious in how much they play fast and loose with history, but it's in a very awesome and lulzy way so I happily forgive it. Ar Tonelico is kind of my....guilty pleasure, but the series gets increasingly more fanservicey so if you have anyone around who will go B| at skanky anime outfits or girls taking baths together, you may want to skip them. Grandia II is one of my favorite RPGs ever, although the PS2 port is a little clunky at times, and last I saw it could be had for pretty cheap.

Most of the other RPGs I am eyeing on my shelf are very

I've been told about Layton! I keep thinking about getting it when I'm out, but then I never do...

Ar Tonelico, too! I'm fine with fanservice so long as it isn't, like... Highschool of the dead/Catherine level fanservice. I'm just not the best with turn-based battling.

Ar Tonelico is like....the first game is turn-based and super-easy. I'm still not far in the second one, I've been lazy, so I don't think I have a good Definitive Opinion on the difficulty level. But in the second one there are some timed button presses to defend against hits and stuff.

And apparently by the third one they've moved on to TAKE CLOTHES OFF TO POWER UP. I have to wonder if that's why it still hasn't been released out here.

Sorry about the RP journal. This is decultures but I am threading right now SO!

Seconding the Ar Tonelico suggestion that was up there. Great game with hilarious character, excellent music, and one of the best world buildings I've seen in an JRPG game in a long time.

DS wise, there's Avalon Code. It's a fun cute game. Kind of similar to Rune Factory. (Well it is made by the same company after all so.) Atelier Annie is an adorable game and isn't extremely hard.

I SHALL COME BACK AND SUGGEST MORE LATER. These are just the ones I wanted to get out there first +A+/

(SQUEE. SECONDING LOVE FOR TWEWY. *is still in the slow, slow process of playing through it

As far as the DS goes, if you can find it, get Chrono Trigger. It's an amazing game, originally from the SNES legacy. You could also try your luck at a Dragon Quest game. Sentinels of the Starry Sky just came out and it has, from what I've heard, excellent online gameplay. Also seconding Final Fantasy III on the DS. It's the only FF I own and I absolutely love it. All three are RPGs
