Reading From The Sacred Texts The RPG Starters Guide - The 10 RPGs every RPG fan should play! marcusoneill79 - As someone who loves RPGs but is realizing he has played disappointingly few of them, I was hoping you could each give me a short list of your ‘essential’ RPGs? Kind of like Garret and Ryan’s list of RPGs that every RPG fan should play. The List Listener Lists: Todd Oxtra @toxtra - I assume Betrayal at Krondor is on that list Hoby1k @hoby1k - I think Kingdom Hearts 2 is one of the best JRPGs ever made. I think anyone remotely interested in action combat JRPGs should put some time into this game. The down side is having to play 2 other games first to understand any of what is going on lol. Kevin Ainsworth @TheMuff1nMon - Essential RPGs? I'll try to give a mix of Western and JRPGs and new/older ones. Tales of Symphonia Persona 5 Royal FF7 (the original!) Skyrim Mass Effect 1-3 (but particularly 2) Golden Sun Leahjewer @leahjewer - Persona 5 and Final Fantasy X are top of my list. Ryan Craig @mathman1024 - Chronotrigger Final Fantasy VI Dragon Warrior/Quest Dragon Quest XI S Mike @BlazeKnight0923 - Breath of Fire 3 Valkyria Chronicles 4 Fire Emblem 3 Houses Chrono Trigger Mario and Rabbids: Kingdom Battle Pokemon: Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire Mass Effect 2 Final Fantasy XI TES5: Skyrim Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber. Seumas MacIsaac @FamousSeumas - Persona 5 Royal (or 4 Golden or Persona 3 FES) Fire Emblem (Awakening or Three Houses) Undertale Nier Automata The Witcher 3 Mass Effect Fallout New Vegas Disco Elysium The Outer Worlds SW:KOTOR Honourable Mention: Any Pokémon (player's choice) Party Up! Paul Swope @watertribechief - For Garret, Why won’t Brock follow me in Leaf Green? I beat Brock with my level 100 caterpie, but he won’t follow me like in the anime. He just sits there all sad. How do I troubleshoot this?
