Suggest my next JRPG

[PropellerEar]

I've put so many hours into Unicorn Overlord and finally I will be able to finish it my next session, need a new game to play!

Suggest me a new JRPG with the best waifus and battles!
Weebos and otakus you know what to do!

No JactionRPG... classic or strategy is the way to go.

Yakuza 7 or 8?

I've finished 7... and just bought 8 on disc so it's a contender.
But haven't played

and can't handle Jaction right now , just played FF7Rebirth and Judgement 2.

Well if you are looking for waifus and turn based then Atelier thighza Ryza is pretty good with a focus on alchemy in the gameplay loop. Valkyria Chronicles is also good.

If you play on pc I have an indie to recommend, Wandering Sword. It has pixel art but its a damn good turn based game based on chinese wuxia legends and you can have upto 13 companions. The best thing about the game it doesn't handhold you and you can fail entire questlines and fail to recruit many of the companions so you to pay attention and the choices you make really matter at the end. You can have your own harem, no romance and many other scenarios can happen. They just released a free expansion as well which adds a good 10 hours of more gameplay

No, haven't tried either of them.
But would prob do it via GP

My man...

Played both Rebirth, Valkyrie chronicles...

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance. You will love it. Looks stunning on PS5 (4k & 60fps)

Edit: Another classic Japanese RPG would be Eiyuuden Chronicles 100rd Heroes

FFXV has the best bros.

I play on PC too, sounds good, I'll check it out.

I have it, but somehow never played it

If you like the 8-bit era of games, then chained echoes (a game that has been on gamepass) is the best you can play.

I won't sperg out about why it's so good, it just is. Fantastic from start to finish.

 

[TrishaCat]

Shin Megami Tensei V just got an enhanced re-release on all platforms. SMT games usually have pretty deep and engaging turn based combat. Pretty looking game too. Isn't super high on the waifus, but that's okay because some of the demons may as well be waifus

Seconding the Atelier Ryza recommendation as well. It's really addictive to run around collecting crafting resources to use for alchemy. Combat is okay, but it benefits from the items you make using alchemy being useful for making battles easier. Make a powerful bomb and use it as an item to trivialize a fight for example.

FFXV is not turn based but is an action rpg

Big mistake, great game when you get past its limitations/shortcomings.

SMTV:V
Is a real contender.

Counterpoint: Game sucks.

Not sure if the gameplay or Switch exclusivity excludes it but play Xenoblade 2.

I have Switch, but the gameplay looks bit actionRPG so probably will skip it for now.

Would Persona 4 and Persona 3 Reload count?
