@hollitz: Lost Odyssey is a very beautiful game, in its themes and its writing. The combat is standard for the most part, and pretty easy to get through if I remember correctly. It sounds like OP doesn't care about that stuff though, and so I still stand by my recommendation.

I like good gameplay i just value story over it. I can tell difference in good or bad gameplay. Some perfect examples would be Nier and Deadly premonition gameplay was rather shit in both but there still geat games and i love them. I like interactive stories thats why i get annoyed when people say just watch movies or tv or read a book since games will always have a weaker story they say.

You should try giving Shin Megami Tensei a go overall. SMT (and spinoffs) are pretty cool JRPG series, especially if you're tired of the tropes that plague most JRPGs. If you have a PS2 (or can emulate one) and you want to get into JRPGs, I'd say that SMT 3: Nocturne, is a must play.

Not SMT, but Dragon Quest VIII is perhaps one of the best JRPGs on the PS2 overall. I'd say it's better than Final Fantasy X.

Persona 4 might be a bit too cheery for some (including me), but I always felt it had a good message about friendship. People aren't special to you because they are perfect or incredibly skilled at something. They're special because they're your friends, not matter what flaws they have.

Problem with Dragon Quest VIII is i dont own a ps2 :( and its not on psn or any where to buy. I guess its on ios but i dont really think the game is fit for a touch screen device like the iphone.

If they ever finally put it on ps4 ill get it. I dont have space in my room for a ps2 when most stuff i can get on ps3 and ps4.

I agree about it being a little to cheery or less serious but i still think characters are really well done and believable. You believe there actually friends which alot of jrpg's dont do that well they seemed more forced like they came together just to stop the bad guy.

@bcooper21: Your choosing of thinking which version of Persona 3 is "better" pretty much boils down to Story presentation (P3: FES) or Combat Mechanics (P3P)

Personally after playing both I like P3P much more than FES.

Story since PSP was to small to fit all the content even if combat is better it matters little since i play games for 70% story 30% gameplay.

Persona 3 has a lot more dungeon time in between story stuff. The story has a different tone to it than 4, which I think is why some people like it more. Also, the game is a little stricter in that you can't spend too much time in the dungeons before your characters become "exhausted" and you have to switch them out or advance to the next day. Still, I think 3 and 4 are equally excellent games.

To be honest with you i dont really play for the gameplay. I played P4 golden on easy. I did not really want to do any grinding or get stuck i just wanted to enjoy the story.

I guess that could actually be a downside for me personally since i usually rush threw the gameplay.

I played P4G in january of last year and now it's my favorite game of all time. I met the best friends of my life going to an anime con for a Persona concert. This game has gave me so much.

P3 FES is a great game too with likeable characters and a breathtaking ending. A little worse though

Ya im interested to see if i fall in P3 or P4 is better category. From what i heard alot people saying Persona 3 has far better end game and story but worse gameplay.

Persona 3 is a bit of a slog after playing Persona 4, just as a warning.

I expect it to be dated and different. Im going to go in with an open mind. Golden is a remaster so its alot more polish to it. They really should have waited to remaster persona 3 from what im told the ps2 fes is best one to get since psp is missing the over world and cutscenes. Im going to play it emulated on ps3.

I think Persona 3 must have some good quality to it since i see alot people argue persona 3 is better than 4.

One great games i have played. I just started getting into the jrpg genre and this blew me away. The characters and cast are some best and most likeable i have seen in a video game and by the end i was sad to see it end. Most jrpg's can feel to long or drag this one was amazing all threw it and i wanted more :(

So far just starting to get into jrpg's Chrono trigger and Persona 4 seem to the high so far both have some best most believable characters you actually feel for them.

The only thing im worried about is now that i started with the best the rest feel so good here hoping. Persona 3 and FF4 and 6 are next.

@bcooper21: How far did you get in the Witcher? It took me a couple of attempts to get into it & while I the combat system is pretty bad throughout the game I finally started to get into it after killing some helldog thing. The Witcher 2 is worlds different, still not the greatest combat though.

Im in swamp area.
