If you have to ask, it's probably ghosts.

Yeah, I like animu much more than orcs and elves and hobbits and shit, or Star Wars.

I'm pretty sure tiesto played and enjoyed (to an extent) Fallout 3.

Or Vampire the Masquerade. Or Jade Empire.I've played and beaten Fallout 3 and Jade Empire already - loved Fallout, hated Jade Empire. Vampire the Masquerade sounded interesting (as did the Arcanum game from the same company), but I heard both games were an absolute mess of bugs.

I played through it over a year ago and worked just fine.Stop playing animu RPGs, man. Life's too short.

wtf, abyss was superior to symphonia in every important aspect. (gameplay, story, less cringe inducing weeabootastic characters)the only area that symphonia beats abyss in is load times, that's it.
I think we should except Valkyria too since it's at least as good as Vesperia.

Vampire: Bloodlines is good, but the combat is some of the worst I've ever experienced in an rpg. Ever.

Quote from: iconoclast on November 20, 2009, 05:03:52 PMI think we should except Valkyria too since it's at least as good as Vesperia.Valkyria (and Demon's Souls) is vastly different from your typical animu JRPG, so it's in a weird place in this battle between the Red Blooded Murrican RPGers and The Weeaboo ex-pats. It looks all weeabooie, but doesn't really play like one.
But Blue Dragon is awesome. And it has the best boss music ever.
it seems to me that there are more "different" JRPGs than "standard" ones recently (where by "recently" I mean "the last 9 years") I don't really get where the complaints of stagnation or whatever are coming from, at least in terms of game mechanics. but whatever.
