Thread: Best Non- Square Enix RPG Competition !

  1. #1

    Default Best Non- Square Enix RPG Competition !

    PM me with your top 10 fav JRPGs that don't come from Square/ Squaresoft or Enix. So no Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Star Ocean, Kingdom Hearts etc.

    (JRPGS and WRPGS!)

    You can include more than one game from the same series, so you can do Persona 1, Persona 2, Persona 3 etc- if you want.




    Thankyou !

    Damn, I'd totally forgotten that NieR:Automata is Square Enix until I looked it up.

    Well, my picks are sent in. I'm rather curious to see what everyone likes, considering there's so many out there.

    I realized sending in my list I haven't played a TON of RPGs outside of Final Fantasy, so my list is a lot of Fire Emblem and Pokemon.

    I came very close to forgetting one of my absolute favorite games for that list, and am still kicking myself over it. Managed to keep Pokemon off the list, though. Was tempted, but tried to diversify the list.

    Thank you for the votes, everybody!


    Note: I'm unsure if Fire Emblem and Pokemon count as RPGs, but I'm going to count Pokemon and Fire Emblems as they are more up to debate. I mean FE is pretty much a tactical RPG and Pokemon is pretty much Turn Based RPG.

    Oh they're both definitely RPGs, I think the more divisive ones would be The Legend of Zelda or Castlevania's Post-SotN entires cause arguments can be made that they are and are not RPGs.

    Obviously I nommed these two games, so I believe they're RPGs (and they are), but JRPG Dad has spoken, maybee.

    I nommed two different games who fall under the same tactical category.

    I'm curious to what series got the most noms. I'm guessing either Tales or MegaTen.

    I... really haven’t played that many non Square/Enix rpgs. Eventually I’ll get around to playing more.
