    Because of games like this im leaning more and more toward indie games. We had so many good inde games in last few years. And i always buy games like this at full price because developer/s deserve.

      It’s not only by the same dev, it’s actually a prequel to The Messenger, set a couple thousand years before.

    Hope it’s a good a place as any to ask this. I’ve got an itch for a jrpg in the classic style, but one with modern conveniences.

    Never finished FFVI because I put it down and later didn’t know where I was nor was doing. Completed Golden Sun I and II, but only with the aid of walkthroughs. Tried a buch of others but don’t really remember them.

    Edit: Recommendations for a great modern JRPG in the classic style?

      Definitely Chained Echoes. It has a lot of modern touches.

      You get healed after every fight and so you actually get to use skills. You only level up after boss battles so the game is scaled properly and you dont need to grind. The overheat system is also a good mechanic to spice up turn-based battles.

      If you have a Switch, I definitely recommend Fire Emblem: Three Houses as a modernization of the Tactics RPG genre.

      I heavily recommend CrossCode. Hands-down one of my all time faves.

      Chained Echoes was also published by Deck13 and is equally amazing. It’s turn-based, unlike CrossCode.

      It’s hard when we don’t know what you have played. My go to recommendation is always Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch if you never played it. It will always hold a special place in my heart. I feel Octopath and Bravely Default are played by 99% of people interested in jrpgs. Chained Echoes should be a good recommendation as well. But you might have played all these.

        Basically the only JRPGs that I remember anything of, story or mechanics wise, is FFVI and Golden Sun I&II. So really a blank slate and looking at at pretty much all recommendations.
