Would yall mind recommending a JRPG to play between The Last Remnant, Lost Odyssey, Tales of Vesperia, or Sacred 2: Fallen Angel? Im looking for a good story, with the least annoying characters, and has the least frustrating gameplay. Your help would be appreciated because i am dying from boredom.

I ALREADY HAVE FABLE 2 MASS EFFECT OBLIVION AND FALLOUT 3!

Tales of Vesperia, definitely. It has an amazing story. The best cast of characters I've ever seen besides "The Office" and great gameplay. It's a nice long game too and i got it for only like 25 dollars at gamestop. There's also a thing where if you play through the game again you get bonus things like all your items from the last game and what not. Best rpg for Xbox. "

Tales of Vesperia. It's better than Lost Odyssey in my opinion, but you should definitely play both.

Fallout 3 is another amazing game.

Out of those, Tales of Vesperia. The characters can be annoying though. Still an excellent game. :)

Out of your list, Lost Odyssey. If you have a look at his gamertag, it says he already played Mass Effect, Fallout 3, Fable 2 and Oblivion.

Stay far away from Oblivion unless you like inferior games. Anyway Tales would probably be your best bet.

While I totally support your decision of Tales of Vesperia, one other RPG I would recommend is Eternal Sonata. It's a pretty good game, but for the last year or so it has kind of been covered over by all of the newer, emerging RPGs. Also Lost Odyssey is pretty good, but I think it gets a little more acclaim than it deserves.

Oblivion isn't inferior. It's actually pretty nice, I like it anyway. I know you aren't a fan though lol. But all three of those games are pretty good also, IMO. I like eastern and western RPGs alike, myself.

The Japanimation in JRPGs is a bridge too far for me and I can't get over it. Even if the gameplay may be decent.

Oblivion is a fun game but it's inferior to the other Elders Scrolls games. I wish I could go back in time just to be prepared for that letdown of a game. It was actually the second worst sequel I have ever played. I love Western RPGs because of Bioware I can't wait for their games. WRPGs just haven't really impressed me so far this gen. Only Mass Effect has an amazing story so far that is on the Xbox 360. Luckily Bioware will more than likely deliver with Dragon Age and Mass Effect 2 as well. Bethsda has really been lacking on their stories which is the main reason I ever play RPGs their games are fun but story-wise they're as dull as it gets.

Yeah it is. Action game with RPG elements anyway.

That's because Taco Bell is better. And YOU are asking US for help, so don't get so cocky with us. We could just ignore your topic altogether and let you choose on your own, we are just tryin to help a brother out. We were helping by recommending some other games along the same lines. I gave my answer in the post as well, my recommendation was just a side-note. And Fable 2 is an RPG - at least an action game with RPG elements. RPGs are a pretty broad description encompassing a lot of features and ideas.

Scared 2 isn't a JRPG. It's a hardcore hack & slash RPG. very awesome game. As for JRPGs, Lost Odyssey and Tales of Vesperia are both very awesome games. It depends on what type of combat system you're looking for if deciding between the two of them. Although I recommend playing both!

Im not getting cocky, its just frustrating when you ask someone to recommend a game you havent played and you get more than half those responses being 3 of my favorite games that i have already played the crap out of.
