VP2 is pretty fuk amazing

Yeah, it's pretty fuck awesome. BoF DQ edges it just slightly tho. The battle system in DQ is gawdly.
FFX: Gets a nod for not being XII
There were other games some good, some bad (P3)
2. Final Fantasy X - Amazing battle system, the best in the main series. Amazing customization system. Good music. Probably the most likable FF cast next to FFVI and VIII, personally. The battle system really makes it for me. I liked how you could occasionally do cool shit like do a pincer attack against bosses, or use the environment to wreck havok on foes. Things like that made it feel like a next gen rpg to me, and amazed me at the time I played it (when it came out). Unfortunately, aside from VP2, not many jrpgs of the ps2 era evolved what FFX started. The sidequests suck, but honestly, I think the good outweighs the bad.
Does FES fix any of the problems with the original? There were things i liked, but overall i was turned off by alot of the pointless crap.
Does it get rid of the shitty sim elements almost entirely and let me get to breaking the game with persona combinations?

So, I see the Shadow Hearts series getting a lot of love in the thread. I never got a chance to play the games, what order would you distinguished effete fellows rank them in? Should I bother with the first one, or just begin with Covenant? How's New World? HUH?
Covenant is the best game in the series, and is one of the few games with legitimately funny moments.
Naw. You can get by playing Covenant without playing the first.
Now prepare yourself for the gayness.

Will it matter if I haven't played the original, or no?
From the games that I own -
Valkyrie Profile 2, Suikoden III (one of the few JRPGs where I actually enjoyed the story), Dragon Quest VIII, Suikoden V, Dragon Quarter, and King's Field: The Ancient City (yeah you read it. I like Kings Field) are definitely on the upper tier for me. Hard for me to realy rank 'em here.
After that, the next tier would include Shadow Hearts Covenant, FFXII, P3:FES (if I had a fantasy of becoming a Japanese high schooler, I'm sure it'd be higher), Dark Cloud 2, Radiata Stories, Tales of the Abyss, and Shadow Hearts.
And the OMFG what was I thinking when I bought this shit is FFX, Wild Arms 3, Star Ocean 3, Grandia X, Disgaea, Suikoden IV, FFX-2, Kingdom Hearts, Summoner, and Unlimited Saga.

Aside from the undeniably gorgeous cutscenes, WTF did you like about FXII?
It has even less gameplay than MGS4.

VP2 and Dark Cloud 2 under Blah is like uhhh

SH:C is like Evilbore: THE GAME.
SH1 isn't bad either.
I do what I can.
HSMP: Why the Wild Arms 3 hate? I don't like the whole radar system in use on the world map, and the encounter rate is a bit high, but so far the game is pretty fun, music is awesome, and battles go by quick too.
I do what I can.
wait, which arc the lad game were you slagging off?
i liked the one where you played basically the good and bad versions of the same character.
