Does anyone know of any communities on Lemmy to talk about JRPGs? It's got to be one of my favorite genres, of which I'm probably most passionate about the Xenoblade series (though I've not had the chance to play the Xenosaga games).
I just recently finished Persona 5 Royal, and while I usually love finally being able to go through discussions on games without fear of spoilers, I don't really wanna head back to check subreddits if I can help it.
Anyways, would love to hear about your favorite JRPGs!
I haven't seen a jrpg community so far. But i would be joining the community as well. Almost only play jrpg's. Let me know if someone create a community or if you find one.
My favorite Jrpg's are Persona 5, Final Fantasy X, 7-Remake, Trails of Cold Steel series, Tales of Arise (yes like it more than berseria), Fire emblem games and Ys 8. I try to get into some smaller and older ones and for sure will play more indies in the future, because i have the feeling to play to much mainstream games.
Fingers crossed that a community will emerge, hopefully it will be made with the increasing number of people trying this platform out.
Thanks for the recs! I've also played and enjoyed FFX, as well as Ys8 (still need to play Ys9 actually)! The other games you mentioned are familiar to me, but I've yet to try them. Then again, that was also the case for P5R until I gave it a shot recently, so maybe I'll see about trying some of those soon!
What's your favorite Fire Emblem game? I recently started getting into some of the older ones after playing the new ones. I really enjoyed Radiant Dawn, although it was super hard compared to the ones I was used to lol.
Have you ever played Lost Odyssey? It's a more obscure title because it was an Xbox 360 exclusive, but it's excellent. If only Microsoft had kept doing more of THAT, the Xbox would be in a heck of a better spot now.
If you have an Xbox 360, an Xbox One, or an XSS/XSX, it can be purchased for a pittance. And there's also the Xenia emulator if you'd like to play your legal backup on PC or Steam Deck, but Xenia doesn't emulate it perfectly yet.
Xenoblade is great, definitely one of my favorite series. I remember stumbling across a xenoblade community on a lemmy server that was called possum something, but I think it was empty and I haven't found it again.
I'm playing through Yakuza like a dragon right now and it's a pretty interesting twist on a JRPG. I definitely prefer the combat to the beat-em-up yakuza games.
