JRPG

We’ve had two demos, lots of videos, and teases from Square Enix and now finally, the day is here! Octopath Traveler is now available at retail stores and on the Nintendo Switch eshop. Octopath Traveler is out today for the Nintendo Switch! Are you going to buy a physical or digital copy of the game? I loved the most recent demo of Octopath Traveler. It was so great to be able to try out all of the character’s stories and…

The first time I played Chrono Trigger…I didn’t like it. This was back during the SNES days and I didn’t like rpgs back then, with the expectation of Earthbound. It wasn’t until I played Final Fantasy 7 that I got addicted to rpgs and after that, I got a chance to play Chrono Trigger on the Playstation 1 and I loved it. Now Chrono Trigger is one of my all-time favorite games. If you’ve played the game, I hope you…

With Octopath Traveler coming out this summer, Nintendo and Square Enix continue to tease the Nintendo Switch exclusive game.

Check out the trailer below and then please come back for my thoughts on the newest information for the game. The newest Octopath Traveler trailer teases two new characters, a Hunter and a Thief. It also shows off Noble Acts and Rogue Decisions. Oh…

Not too long ago, I wrote about Legend of Legacy for the 3DS. I liked the game but didn’t love it. And now the developers that brought Legend of Legacy to us has made another game. This game is called The Alliance Alive and its also for the 3DS. Is it better than Legend of Legacy? Will rpg fans want to play it? Here are my impressions so far of The Alliance Alive. The Alliance Alive for 3DS is totally…

Few Japanese Role Playing Games in the last decade have grabbed me quite like Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom has. The last few JRPG's that had a huge impact on me - in terms of how much I wanted to play them compared to the other games I owned - were probably Tales of Symphonia back on the Nintendo Game Cube, and Tales of Vesperia on the Xbox 360. I've always taken a liking to the Tales franchise, but in recent years, I've been fairly disappointed in their offerings. Tales of Berseria was good, but not what I had hoped. Once I got a few hours into Ni No Kuni ...

I’ve been playing Legend of Legacy lately for the 3DS. Its a jrpg that is mostly focused on combat and exploration. What do I think of the game so far? Let’s find out! Legend of Legacy for the 3DS has a lot of good points. The game’s graphics are really good, the battle system is a lot of fun, and uncovering maps in new areas is pretty neat. However, not everything about the game is perfect. There is hardly any…

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 comes out this Friday! Are you excited for it? I know I am! Here is a new story trailer for Xenoblade Chronicles to-help?-you with the wait. The story trailer for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 doesn’t really give away much of the story. We just get glimpses at some very exciting and dramatic moments. I like that Nintendo is releasing some info about the story but isn’t telling us too much. The story seems interesting and even more that,…

I Am Setsuna, an rpg published by Square Enix, will be a launch title for the Nintendo Switch! We have more details below. I wrote about my excitement for I Am Setsuna recently and I’m happy to report that the title was announced as a Nintendo Switch launch title today. It will be available digitally at launch for North America and Europe. Here is how I am Setsuna is described: ““I AM SETSUNA follows the story of Setsuna, a young…

I had no idea what I Am Setsuna was and didn’t think I’d care. I saw the name listed in Nintendo’s recent 2017 Nintendo Switch lineup image on twitter. No video was shown of it during the Switch presentation nor during Treehouse Live. What was this game? I passed it over and didn’t think about it much. Then, I saw a Nintendo Enthusiast video that showed off a lot of games that are coming for the Switch this year. One…
