obvously the Final Fantasy series goes without say. It doesnt seem like there are a whole lot since the downfall fo the NES (dragon warror?), but I always enjoyed these types of RPG’s over live action or real time, like Zelda/the elder scrolls/ect… it took a little more thought, almost like a game of chess in some cases to out smart the computer and they were a little more laid back.
so I wanted to compile a list of good turn based RPGs to try out one of these days.
lets hear 'em
/geek
I never got into RPG’s, but I had a friend from H.S. that played Romance of the Three Kingdom’s (for SNES) non stop.
super mario rpg
dragon warrior
Fallout 1 & 2
shining force series from sega… first 2 were on genesis 3rd was a LATE release on saturn. shining force 2 is one of my all time favorites
+1
so fun
FUCK YEAH.
I heard of kingdom hearts being good(i think its an rpg at least,havent played it0
Xenogears, Suikoden, Suikoden II, Suikoden V, Legend of Dragoon, Arc the Lad, Tales of Destiny(realtime but awesome), Tales of Destiny II, Breath of Fire III, Lunar SSS, Grandia, Grandia II…
ARC OF THE LADDIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
good game, but def not turn based
no one else has played any of the shining force games?
Baldur’s Gate I & II for the PC are excellent RPG’s that can be made turn based by setting up the auto-pause features in the options
shining force was one of my favs also xenogears
