Yea, it was amazing on the SNES. Get the English patched version and its one of the best looking games on the SNES. The intro boss battle for Phantasia is epic.

Who could guess the top left legendary game?

Enix means Terrangma. The best puzzle/action jrpg of snes. Old cartridges are cheap there.

Not JRPG, but close. Indy game that looks interesting visually

@Poganin

That's awesome. BF4 was an amazing game. Very underrated. The sprites and animation was stunning.
Ill reward you with this. From my favorite game.
He should be smiling. But for some reason I decided to make him look neutral.

One of my fav JRPG character design art. Capcom's Breath of Fire series. Capcom had the best artists at the time.

Capcom's Breath of Fire series

The series was pretty unique. I like BOF3 the best of the series overall but it was not bad. I had a fun time comparing Wild Arms vs Breath of Fire back in the day. Which series is better. I'm still thinking

I know one thing and that is the Wild Arms OST is superior.

Original Wild Arms from PS1 was pretty good. PS1 had some good JRPGS like Alundra, Tactic Ogre, FF Tactics, etc.. etc.. BoF had the flashy art style that no other RPGs can really compete.

PS1 had some good JRPGS

The debate is, which console was king of JRPGS?
SNES, Sega-CD, PS1, PS2,PS3,X360, PS4?

Personally, PlayStation 1 killed it for JRPGS. Next was SNES and after was a tie...


.... I need that book!

I think both were the peak times for JRPGs until the polygon graphics killed off the wonderful sprite based style of art and gameplay. Sprite based game designs holds up better than the early polygon stuff. It's coming back these days. The new FF with huge production costs isn't all that good.

I think FF 6 and Chrono Trigger was when the sprite games were at peak, but I think it can be even better if remastered with high def sprites with the right person to do the art style. But, they never went that path, but took a different rout with polygons (which look horrible now). I know Arc system works can do 2d look really well.
