Ps1 was the golden era of jrpg. So many unique and fun games. FF8 was my first FF game and my first taste of jrpgs. It was the reason i got a ps1 instead of a n64, and boy was it the right choice. What followed was lots of rpgs; Breath of fire, Grandia, Legend of Legaia.... the list goes on. Fond memories
I really love PS1 JRPG's, but in my opinion Golden Era come with PlayStation 2. Because it have even more titles, and most of them have original game mechanics and features.
@@PuffZombieI feel the PS1 had more all time classics where the PS2 may have had more JRPGs but I feel a lot of them were just good by comparison but not incredible but that's just my opinion :D
The PS1 nostalgia is real. FF7 is my all time favorite but probably not for the same reason as most people. My dad got me a PlayStation with a bunch of games when we could finally afford our own house and I’ll always remember him telling me it was important to him because his parents could never afford to. FF7 was one of those games. I tried playing it and just couldn’t figure it out so I played mostly just racing and fighting games. Then my dad start playing my PlayStation when I wasn’t home because he worked night shifts and he couldn’t get enough of FF7. I would watch him play and ask about it then he taught me how to play it and from that point on I was a JRPG lover. I always looked for other JRPGs but one thing was always certain. Depending on if it was closer to Christmas or my birthday my dad would always get me the new final fantasy that came out.
@@eatthewoke5170 yeah I lost interest once they went full action rpg. They use to be the company that always innovated turn based RPGs. Now their games feel like all the others with better graphics and a final fantasy paint job.
The fact that you even have 50 JRPGs in one list on one console is insane. This explains easily why the PS1 is my favorite console of all time to this date.
Can't agree more that FFVIII does deserve and needs a remake on the level of FF7R, in the sense that it needs elevation. I always had the impression that it was a rushed game with many unanswered questions regarding world building. Great game with great characters
I love to see when people show respect to FF8. My first ever JRPG was Chrono Cross (became my all time favourite) and my second ever JRPG was FF8. It blew me away with its graphics, summons, special attacks, the whole world was so unique and I LOVED the junction system as well. ( Drawing was a bit tedious but it did not take anything away of the experience) I found out later that you can glitch the junctions but I never do it, just use it as it was intended. All those cool FMV cutscenes, the characters, and oh my god the music, that opening cinematic. I am literally in tears thinking back on that game. FF8 will forever be in my heart, it is one of the best games I have ever played as a kid.
Love the list. One thing I'd like to add is if it is not too much trouble could you consider adding timestamps for each game in your list? It makes seeing specific games a lot easier.
The only thing I hated about Xenogears was the random Encounters every two steps LOL .my friends and I made fun of that back in the day like we would announce" hey man Im going to the fridge" take two steps and we would all start singing the battle music XD
Breath of Fire 3 was my first RPG (not counting Pokemon R/B) and my all time favorite. I can't praise it enough, the music, the artwork, the story, and of course the Dragons!
I love how Legend of Legaia is a dark fantasy after the BBEG has already caused the collapse of everything and his minions are going around and systematically destroying pockets of survivors.
I was absolutely hyped to see legend of dragoon, legend of legaia and jade cocoon all on this list. Usually people are like “ps1 had great rpgs” then cant name anything that wasnt published by square.
It is SO redeeming to see my favorite game FINALLY mentioned in a "Greatest RPG of Blah Blah" (Legend of Legaia). I think with just a few modern tweaks it would be marketable on today's consoles (remade, of course, with better artwork and whatnot,) but I will cherish it on my PSX/2 until it finally gets the remake it deserves.
Отличное видео. Очень коротко и информативно, но сразу понятно становится, что из себя представляет игра. Некоторые игры из списка ранее не встречал в подборках. Спасибо.
The PS1 era had some of the best and most influential RPGs ever in my opinion. Tons to sink lots of well spent time into. I likely would not be an RPG fan today if it wasn't for a good chunk of this list.
This is true. I would not love rpgs today if not for these jrpgs. I would still want to play these games on ps1 over any latest console. Suikoden II is forever my favorite and I will still replay it. ❤
I remember also remember a couple of videogames birthday gifts as some of fondest memories... Once, I got Sonic3 and Dragonball:Lappel du destin for megadrive. Another time I got Ultima7 for PC from my brother... I cried of joy that day.
I would really like to see videos of you providing a more deep dive into some of these favorites of yours. Like Ragnarok Tactics on PSP - I'd love to see you go into a full review of the game. Something deeper than these "Top Lists" videos. Have a good one.
Suikoden 1&2 have a special place in my heart, I got it randomly from a friend that didn’t like it, and I fell in love, so much that I bought 2 on release day, these and the BoF series are timeless to me. PS, I still own both Suikodens on disc
Imo, FF Tactics is best in its original form, on PS1! But Ogre Battle and Tactics Ogre also shine here, and all three are must play for anyone with a strategic mind.
The Lunar series will always be replayed. What's great about it's art style is it cannot get outdated. I do find FF7 a bit overrated but for many it's their first rpg ever and that gives it serious nostalgia power.
Here in Australia we got the European release of Final Fantasy Anthology. In that collection we actually got FFIV and FFV, as FFVI got a stand alone release. Basically the only Nintendo-era Final Fantasy game the PS1 didn't get out here was, of course, FFIII.
Ahahhaa let me share somwthing really funny with u guys: Right now, when Erick announced Xenogears in 40° place, and then Brigandine in 39°, two things happened to me: 1- now I'm REALLY afraid of this list 2- and now I'm TOTALLY curious about this list That's it! Tnks for your amazing job, Erick! Cheers from Brazil ❤️💃
A bit fun fact for why Tales of Eternia became Tales of Destiny II in the US was because the word 'Eternia' already been used by *Mattel* for *He-Man / Master of the Universe* franchise. Namco doesn't want any legal issues with Mattel or confusing promotion so they choose Destiny II for Eternia, which ironicly confused many Tales of fans when Namco decided to make the real Destiny II. But for EU release, Bamco still used Eternia.
Hey Eric, what are your thoughts on those retro emulation consoles? Btw, you uploaded this vid at the perfect time. I just got one of them for myself and a cousin and I was looking to add more stuff to the game list.
I have a rg35xx anbernic i have some of more popular games in this list plus gameboy color ,advance snes rpgs arcade beat em ups 90’s fighting games sega msx turbograftx for 54 bucks i love my rg35xx
Not only the list has almost the same number of rpgs I've played(that's 48 untill this moment), but it also starts with my first one ever! This will definitely help me expand my horizons, and maybe pick up some different games to play.
I was listening to this while at work, but I don't think I heard Guardians Crusade mentioned? That was one of the first games I ever played on PS1. Great memories. Surprised that couldn't even crack top 50?
hey erick have you played popolocrois on PS1? it already have english patch you might like it and it was different unlike PSP version which is mash up of two popolocrois 1 & 2 on PS1 but poporogue was not included instead added new scenario.
Just throwing this out there. If you do play BoF 4. I highly recommend playing it on a CRT. I tested to see if it looks better than the emulator and the CRT looked SO MUCH better. Really makes you appreciate how good the sprite art was back then.
PS1 was just amazing, so many great games. I can’t believe how many of them I actually played. I still have a few of the old CDs, but I need to get a PS1 and a memory card…
One of the best RPGs of all time💯 - Legend of Dragoon - Suikoden 2 - Final Fantasy Tactics - FF9 - FF8 - Rhapsody - Breath of Fire IV - Wild Arms 2 - Brigandine - Suikoden 1 - FF6 - FF7 - Castlevania - Vandal Hearts - Monster Rancher - Valkyrie Profile - Chrono Cross - Threads of Fate
Many thanks for including Front Mission 3, Vanguard Bandits and Mega Man Legends 2. Seems every other TH-cam rpg list only j**ks off over the usuals like FF7, Chrono Trigger and Dragon Quest 8.
I know right I always thought digimon were waaay cooler than Pokémon but the games always fell short. Even my iPhone auto corrects Pokémon for me but thinks I am misspelling digimon, so annoying lol 😆
what do you think about the battle system?, is it good?. I wanted to like this game, but the battle system is ridiculously easy so you just have to spam the same attack over and over again
@@agahafiz3914 That may be the case in earlier levels but if gets much more challenging later on and it's a surprisingly vast game. I did a fair amount of grinding and am about 40 hours in but only just about reaching endgame. So far it's been an incredible game, with memorable characters, unique settings, original story and enemies. I also love the dash button which saves a lot of time, the escape spell that reduces backtracking majorly, and an incredibly handy easy glitch to give infinite items in case things get too hard or you just want to be an instant millionaire. The whole game reminds me of the best of FF6, Golden Sun and perhaps Crono Trigger (without the cumbersome time travelling). Hope this helps and you play this gem.
Quite ingenious of you to put these in random order. I'd say at least 35 out of these 50 games I could see someone calling their number one favorite and I'd totally believe them. Personally I'd call Xenogears my favorite although I have to admit I might not have even played it if not for FF7 being my gateway to the genre. So I'm torn between whether I would rank cultural importance over personal love for a work of art.
So many great JRPG's on this system. Hard to pick my favorite, but I would say Suikoden or FF IX. I'm playing Xenogears right now, and might throw that one in there also.
Don't forget on ps3 eshop there is a ton of ps1/ps2 classics xenogears, chrono trigger, so soo many tons of rpgs, grandia, old smt, all og ff games, parasite eve, so many countless tons of classics literally not available on any other system.
Really good, nothing missed imo, ogrebattle mbq, front mission 3, xenogears, all those others missed you got them Your tastes is similar to mine I did not like tales of destiny
I loved Thousand Arms but it is not a great game, it's one of those games that I personally liked but nobody else did. Sadly, my copy had an issue where the game would crash because my disk had a nasty scratch on it. would love to revisit it one day.
BoF3 is one of the greatest JRPGs I've ever played, And after playing thru it again recently, I stand by that statement. Was thinking about trying BoF4 again, As I never actually completed it, Tho I've heard so much praise for BoF4 as the best in the series, But is it really better than 3? From what i remember of it, I felt like it was lacking in several aspects, Def didn't immerse me into it's world the way 3 did. Gonna give it another try tho!
Some Other Good PS1 JRPGs Not Named Here On This List Are Koudelka Threads Of Fate Parasite Eve 2 Mega Man Legends 1 Beyond The Beyond Alundra 2 Saga Frontier 1
Please! Help me find a game! I remember the game from childhood, the genre was JRPG, it was in Japanese, little known. I lost the disc (From memory, I remember the following moments in fragments, because I played at 9-10 years old: The game has a top view, real time control 1. Protagonist - a guy, several times the control went for other characters. 2. The game starts in the laboratory, there is a battle with a couple of enemies as I remember. The second location is a ruined modern city. At the end is the boss. 3. I remember a beach, a forest, a desert, space (hard mission on a spaceship), then a shipwreck. 4. Boss fight, 3v1, in the forest. 5. Laboratory, some secret base of scientists. 6. Desperate search for a certain girl, who by the end of the level was injured (in my opinion on the beach) 6. Constant battles with robots, and Protagonist has his own robot. Ship battles in space were also done in the traditional JRPG style, turn-based. 7. Locations were loaded during transitions. 8. The atmosphere of the game is quite depressing and gloomy. It's not Xenogears!

PS1 and PS2 were the RPG titans basically.
I can't see too many people owning one of these systems w/o having played at least one RPG.
True, I bought an emulator just to play ps1 jrpgs. Getting a Miyoo Mini+ was such a delight to play my faves back then.
Star Ocean second story is one of my favorite action jrpgs of all time.
The second story stomps all over the FF saga .
the choice of music in this video is absolutely top notch. So many great tracks to match a list of so many incredible games :)
Is the music at 4:15 from BOF III ost? if yes, which song exactly? thanks!

Ff8 is the most underrated, people always choose ff7 or ff9.. but for me ff8 is the goat and deserve a remake
Can't agree more that FFVIII does deserve and needs a remake on the level of FF7R, in the sense that it needs elevation.

It's not underrated, it's what started the hate FF bandwagon that you see for FF10 a little, and then more so for FF12 and FF13 and FF15
Yea 8 was good. 7 and 9 def better in my opinion. Love em all tho
Love the list. One thing I'd like to add is if it is not too much trouble could you consider adding timestamps for each game in your list? It makes seeing specific games a lot easier.
Yep, for "research purposes" and I mean literally.
The only thing I hated about Xenogears was the random Encounters every two steps LOL .my friends and I made fun of that back in the day like we would announce" hey man Im going to the fridge" take two steps and we would all start singing the battle music XD
Can it be reduced somehow?
use cheat@@Maesterful
there are rumors about a remake of Xenogears taking place in the future... fingers crossed.
The battle system also sucked, it was pretty repetitive.
To be fair the battle music is really funny
Breath of Fire 3 was my first RPG (not counting Pokemon R/B) and my all time favorite. I can't praise it enough, the music, the artwork, the story, and of course the Dragons!
what a time to play RPGs back then, played ALL of those :)
Breathe of fire 3, grandia, ff7,and ff8 are my favorites
Add Legend of Dragoon and FF9, and you have my favorite list
Great to see my favorites on the list! Suikoden 1&2, Chrono Cross, Breath of Fire IV and Final Fantasy IX.
OMG, been waiting so long to see Legend of Legaia mentioned in a vid again. Glad to see it right in front!
I really enjoyed that game. Never played the sequel. I would love to recollect a physical copy for Legia 1 and jade cocoon
Same I recently downloaded it after wanting to for a long time and I’m already 40 hrs in lol
@wadedewell DON'T. PLAY. THE SEQUEL. It is next to NOTHING like the original and... its a HUGE letdown. Just. Keep playing the original. 😊

What is this brain rot? Square games were always "woke"
@@jplayer073 Historical revisionism is pathetic, and I love the subtle coping and seething by putting the word woke in scare quotes lmao
BoF3 is one of the greatest JRPGs I've ever played, And after playing thru it again recently, I stand by that statement. Was thinking about trying BoF4 again, As I never actually completed it, Tho I've heard so much praise for BoF4 as the best in the series, But is it really better than 3? From what i remember of it, I felt like it was lacking in several aspects, Def didn't immerse me into it's world the way 3 did. Gonna give it another try tho!
Koudelka didn't make the list?! I love this game.
Yeah it deserve more than dragon valor
Some Other Good PS1 JRPGs Not Named Here On This List Are Koudelka Threads Of Fate Parasite Eve 2 Mega Man Legends 1 Beyond The Beyond Alundra 2 Saga Frontier 1
I ALWAYS have at least a copy of a suikoden 1-2 roms on me in my phone. I always did and always will lmao, Konami f up so much with this serie...
Please! Help me find a game!
I remember the game from childhood, the genre was JRPG, it was in Japanese, little known. I lost the disc (From memory, I remember the following moments in fragments, because I played at 9-10 years old:
The game has a top view, real time control
1. Protagonist - a guy, several times the control went for other characters.
2. The game starts in the laboratory, there is a battle with a couple of enemies as I remember. The second location is a ruined modern city. At the end is the boss.
3. I remember a beach, a forest, a desert, space (hard mission on a spaceship), then a shipwreck.
4. Boss fight, 3v1, in the forest.
5. Laboratory, some secret base of scientists.
6. Desperate search for a certain girl, who by the end of the level was injured (in my opinion on the beach)
6. Constant battles with robots, and Protagonist has his own robot. Ship battles in space were also done in the traditional JRPG style, turn-based.
7. Locations were loaded during transitions.
8. The atmosphere of the game is quite depressing and gloomy.
It's not Xenogears!
Maybe it was xenosaga

Brave fencer musashi is such a banger
Maaaaan I almost thought BoF wasn't gonna make it
One good game is missing called monsterseed. I think its underrated and not very popular for people to notice
but.. you say zelda isn't an rpg, but on this list there's alundra and brave fencer musashi. did i miss something?
In brave fencer you level up with xp im not sure with alundra im only playing snes gameboy advance zelda you don’t get xp when you kill the enemies
@@kotetsujin3493 alundra is a lot like zelda. you collect hearts to get more hp. don't have xp
