My Personal Final Fantasy Challenge
I never played JRPGs growing up, so that whole genre became a blind spot for me. To fix this, I decided to play all of the mainline games in the Final Fantasy series because they seemed as good a proxy as any for the genre. I've been sticking mainly to the numbered entries and I plan to fan out into offshoots if/when I get done with the main ones.
Update 1/2022:
I'm cleaning up and adding to this list. The PS1 games broke me. I am a shell of the man that I once was, but the modern games are far more tolerable and I should be caught up by the end of this year.
