RPG Fan's Reviews
Tacticians and fans of deckbuilder RPGs will find one of the best implementations of the genre since Slay the Spire.
Even if you've played Xenoblade Chronicles before, the Definitive Edition makes so many meaningful improvements that it's a must play for all fans of JRPGs.
If you can get past the stiff localization, Banner of the Maid is a great tactical RPG with an inspired concept.
It's not a bad game, but is best played in small doses.
You better bee-lieve how good this is.
Utawarerumono: Prelude to the Fallen has some flaws, but is an excellent starting point to an epic tale.
An interesting concept that needs a little bit more work to make a compelling game.
Despite some flaws, Celestian Tales: Realms Beyond is an enjoyably short(er) RPG experience with beautiful visuals and surprising depth.
While it doesn't quite soar the heavens like its predecessor, Stormblood is ultimately a solid addition to Final Fantasy XIV, with plenty to see, loads to do, and lots of little improvements to make the whole experience better.
I enjoyed doing my taxes more than I enjoyed playing this game.
Dragon Quest XI S easily earns its title as the definitive edition of an amazing traditional JRPG.
Suited for those with a sense of humor who enjoy the idea of poking fun at just about anyone on a pedestal.
In spite of a few flaws, this game's delightful charm totally won me over.
Planet Stronghold 2 is a nuanced, well-crafted sci-fi RPG/visual novel hybrid that offers a lot of choice and replayability.
The huge effort and perceived budget that went into this game shows, and Sakura Wars makes a triumphant return after a 14-year retirement.
An exciting remake that recalls a sense of fun by injecting the right amount of "new" into what made the original a classic.
Persona 5 Royal is possibly the best enhanced port ever made, and it helps that the original material is still as amazing as ever. This is a must play for RPG fans.
The game has potential, but its execution is muddled.
A refreshing re-imagining of the beginning of Final Fantasy VII, Remake is at times wonderful but at others audacious, and I'm here for the ride.
An exemplar of how several complex systems can work seamlessly together.
