FF series.
Tales.

grandia
Aren't most of the FF games on steam the dogshit mobile ports?
Ys and Trails in the Sky games
Recettear
I think V and VI are the only bad ports on steam, I know 3 and 4 are phone ports, but those are based off the DS version and aren't that bad.
...
most jrpg fans can't handle the last remnant. it's the anti-thesis to hand holding.
LISA
Final Fantasy series
Tales series
Valkyria Chronicles
Legend of Heroes series
Neptunia series
Grandia
The Last Remnant
Ys series
Undertale.
Trails in the Sky FC and SC hands down, but that's because there's hardly any real competition on steam.
Grandia is on steam? The first one?
I think only the second one
Fortune summoners
Trails in the Sky was a comfy ride. I like how all the NPCs had their own lives going on while you were running around. Not even wRPGs invest that much into world-building. (Ouroborous, on the other hand, I felt was filled with, dare I say, generic, antagonists to the main party?)
Grandia 2 I like, too. it's like back when jrpgs were still striving to be wrpgs instead of highschool simulators. The combat gameplay system was pretty keen, too, what a shame japan didn't copypaste THAT everywhere.
Nep for mind-rotting fun
Ys is GIT GUD: THE GAME
but not the Final Fantasies because Sqeenix put some kind of eyecancer sprites in thanks to them being ports of a shitty mobile remasters. Those new models clash horribly, horribly with the game. Who the hell thought that looked good? Probably the same kind of people who thought the Star Wars remasters looked good when all they did was insert a bunch of NEW NEW NEW but ugly shit everywhere.
Oroboros becomes a lot more interesting in the third TiTS game, and in the crossbell trails games and trails of cold steel
FFIX is the phone port, but isn't too bad
FFVII and FFVIII are the PC ports
FFIV is basically the DS port (which is good)
FFX, FFXI, FFXIII and FFXIII-2 are all just pc versions of the console games (the FFXIII port is much worse than FFX)
I heard you need like a 500 page guide just to learn how to not fuck up everything.
FFXV
Yeah bro, if you're gonna do this, just dl the emulator and the roms and play that way. I know for sure IX is the dogshit mobile port
Is The Last Remnant like a modern SaGa game or something?
>actually recommending someone to play through the slow and aweful as fuck PS version of IX
You're a bad person.
The IX port might have a bit too crisp NPC/PC models, but all the other improvements are so much worth it than trying to emulate the original.
>level scaling
Yeah and then they have to play western master pieces like Oblivion.
Dude kidnapped sister lmao.
Yes.
No, it's shit.
joshua's a lucky man
Don't do it OP, the MC for this is a massive fag.
It's just another one of Kawazu insane games. I honestly feel SaGa series is a much better game than Last Remnant but each has it's good parts (once you understand how the game works that is).
>man
Naw he's best girl
Like others have said, Grandia 2 and Legend of Heroes. Disgaea too, and Phantom Brave.
Final Fantasy is also definitely notable, but it's arguable if the Steam versions are actually good ports or not.
>Neptunia series
I suppose this is noteworthy, but not in a good way.
>get ff4 from steam
>fucking garbage 3d graphics on par with snes 3d graphics
>the absolute worst voice acting known to man that's impossible to turn off (in cutscenes at least)
Even after pirating it I felt like I got scammed.
Valkyria Chronicles is good and noteworthy, but not really a JRPG. You're really stretching the definition here.
Beggars can't be choosers. Someone posted Recettear as well.
