RPG Fan's Reviews
A reflective episode provides hope for the rest of the series at its halfway point.
Final Fantasy V is a criminally underrated Final Fantasy game, and the Pixel Remaster is a great version of it.
Wandering Sword is an excellent debut game and has all the hallmarks of a classic RPG. Do not overlook this superb indie gem!
It's like a D&D campaign with a DM who has a funky imagination and still manages to make you think, laugh and cry all at the same time, and it's utterly unforgettable in all the best ways.
The HD versions of Etrian Odyssey and Etrian Odyssey II in the Origins Collection are faithful to a fault, but miss the mark on delivering a definitive experience for a pair of already revisited classics.
Eternights is a surprisingly compelling and thoughtful horror action RPG with relationship bonding elements.
It's hard to tell why Fae Farm is shipping in the state that it's in, and it's a shame that the core of the game is overshadowed by bugs and poor design choices. I hope one day it's in a state where it's possible to love it as much as I want to.
Rune Factory 3 Special is a great preservation of the original, but would have benefitted from a lot more fine-tuning.
While Anonymous;Code is a step in the right direction with interesting ideas and a snappy pace, it still pales in comparison to the best entries in the Science Adventure series.
Monochrome Mobius: Rights and Wrongs Forgotten lays a solid foundation, but its many flaws make it a game that is likely to only be welcomed by die-hard Utawarerumono fans.
Atlas Fallen is a decent open-world action RPG co-op or solo experience.
Starfield delivers on its promise to make a huge, fun, compelling, and player-focused playground for sci fi RPG fans to play and perform in.
Norn9: Last Era is a surprisingly strong otome fandisk outing despite its flaws.
Sea of Stars is both a nostalgic callback to classic RPGs and an instant classic in its own right.
For those it appeals to, Elohim Eternal: The Babel Code is a fantastic start to what promises to be a compelling RPG journey.
Rhapsody II: Ballad of the Little Princess is a vastly improved sequel that is full of fun, charm, and whimsy while offering a much-needed challenge with its fresh take on a familiar battle system.
The Outer Worlds is a complex, compact sci-fi RPG that should be any spacer's first choice, especially when it is bundled with DLC and quality-of-life upgrades on modern consoles and PC.
A passionate love letter to traditional RPGs, pro wrestling, and upturned toy boxes.
Episode 2 shows consequences starting to develop from previous decisions, but whether you'll remember them is still waiting until next time.
A heartfelt story that demonstrates the positive impact online relationships and communities can have on people. A must-play.
