I have Ys 1: The Vanished Omens, for Sega Master System ::meev::

Ys 3 for SNES was a funny game too. The fanatics of Ballacetine Castle, etc XD
But I really wouldn't say it's in the running for best series at all.

The only RPG worth a damn on that list is Breath of Fire, and even then the only good one is III.
Where are the good RPGs?
Baldur's Gate, Planescape: Torment, Fallout, Arcanum, Arx Fatalis.
I have nothing against Japanese RPGs really, I was an insufferable FF fanboy for years, but there's just so much more out there...

Yes I know this is a week too late.

And there is so much more to JRPGs other than FF and BoF. :| I played Baldur's Gate and didn't like much, as well as Diablo. I am not very fond of Western RPGS, but i would like to play stuff like Fable, NeverWinter Nights, Elder Scrolls, and KOTOR. why don't you start a poll about western rpgs?

Final Fantasy forever, dammit ::squee:: I have played some Zelda too but I did not experience the kind of "love at first sight" thingy like I did with FF.

EmbarrassingtypoMuffin, RPG-Related threads are usually capable to revive themselves with Curaga, hence this one will never die.

For me,it's Pokemon. Seriously,I love Pokemon and can't wait for the 27th of July (when Diamond & Pearl will be released in Europe).

I voted for shin megami tensei but it was fighting between that and dragon quest. They're the only rpgs I'm able to play through nowadays.. and I don't consider some to be rpgs.. it was a hard decision ^^;.

Well as long as this thread's back from the grave, I just want to say that I've played some more of the early Final Fantasy games (finished 5, and almost finished with 4), and the plots really were insipid before 6 or so.

^Yeah, there wasn't really much plot but it was still fun times to -play-. After 6 they switched from fun to story. And now we're stuck with stuff like XII, which has one of the coolest fantasy worlds ever created with alot of background story but playing it is just dull and a waste of time.

You should play FF4 remake then. The people involved in the remake said that about 3/4 of the complete story is not present in the original game, and that they will add it to the remake. however, i don't think FF4 is so bad in terms of story. For me, it is one of the best FFs.

FF12 is dull? for me, it is very cool in all aspects. The battle system is really awesome. Love it. Currently going through it. ::batsu::

I've been playing the GBA version. Is that the remake?
As far as I'm aware the only changes from the SNES version are a re-translation and a new bonus dungeon. I've never played the SNES version though.
