Maybe at one point, but I have internet short term memory.

[QUOTE="cybrcatter"][QUOTE="Deihjan"] Well, if I have to put all the time I ever spend in just Dragon Age Origins alone...then.. around 129 hours, off the top of my head... Can't remember all of my playthrough-times, but 5 playthroughs.. And then there's the downloads I have for it, as well..Deihjan

Maybe you're just playing the wrong ones. I heard WKC isn't meant to be very good. I always liked Final Fantasy: Tactics and a few others. In general though I'm not really that big on JRPG's either.

I bought White Knight Chronicles in hope of a game that could capture me, but no... Worst..game.. I ever bought. Not even TFU for the DS was that bad.Deihjan

[QUOTE="Deihjan"][QUOTE="cybrcatter"] That sounds about right for me too. If I counted all of the hours I put into FF IX, it would be just a few hundred short of 1k. WasntAvailable

FF3 is supposed to be a bit dated I hear, but I havn't got round to playing it. I wasn't that struck on the FF4 remake myself, and that was supposed to be better. Rose Crystal? No that sounds like Tactics Advance :x. The first one that was re-released on PSP is where it's really at. The Gameboy/DS ones are a bit campy I heard, and meant to be nowhere near as good. FF: Tactics is quite mature for a JRPG.

[ I wouldn't call Oblivion, Morrowind or Dragon Age JRPGs, but okay :P The reason Dragon Age felt so..limited..to me, was because I played it on a console, and not on my PC. And RPGs are meant to be played on PCs.Deihjan

I havn't got round to playing 9 yet. I'll buy it eventually though, it's on PSN now. I quite liked FF12 because of how big and open it felt. That's kind of rare in a JRPG. I also liked the job boards.

[QUOTE="Deihjan"] Well, I tried FF3 remake on the DS, and FF tactics about some rose crystal or whatever.. Didn't appeal to me at all.. Only reason WKC is still on my shelf is because I'm adamant to get 100% trophies... :PDeihjan

But if you slave your ass of you get to have Ninja's and Samurai's :(. Besides, the Black Mage's look awesome and you don't have to work very hard to have them. :P I quite liked the combat in tactics though. It was turn based, and it could be a bit a slow, but it was be quite fun maximising your moves and such. You could also have very different parties depending on how you develop your characters. It did take forever to level up, but it was satisfying when you did. I liked Tactics for it's story as well, and I usually don't in JRPG's. I suppose it just depends on your gaming taste though, and it's not as if JRPG's have been particularly good as of late.

Yeah I was really disappointed with the direction they took with XIII. If they had developed on what they had achieved with XII I think they could have made a much better game, but I think Square Enix are kind of losing it now. They have so many games coming out now you have to wonder how much focus they can have on one particular title. Most of their games turn out badly as well. Parasite Eve 3 might be good though. Still havn't played the first 2 yet, I'm hoping for a PSN release. Also hoping they release VI on PSN. I never got round to playing FF games in my PS1 days, I just didn't care enough at the time :/.

You're probably right. Atlus are still making good and often original JRPG's. I'm not sure what's going to happen with JRPG's in general though, especially FF. They could go back to basics and work from there, but then people would complain about a lack of originality, or they could attempt to revolutionise the way we see JRPG's, which I don't think is going to happen, and people wouldn't be happy about abandoning the core gameplay. One thing for sure though is that FF13 was a giant misstep.
