RPG Haven

This is another RPG for the Sega Mega Drive that's part of the Shining series. It's a dungeon crawler unlike Shining Force 1 and 2 and is the very first game in the Shining series. I played it a tiny bit but I'll definitely need to look up maps since I got lost pretty quickly. Have you ever played ...

This is on my list of RPGs I need to play at some point. I've heard good things about it though.

So this game finally came out last week. Is anyone here playing it? I heard it's just PvP so I'm probably going to skip playing this one.

It was fun seeing the fandom go from saying it’s the greatest in the franchise, to the worst, to “it’s good, but not god tier” over the years

And now I only really see praise for the remake online. I don't think I've seen too much criticism, my wife isn't a fan since they've changed things so ...

I do remember how this game went from being so hated to becoming the best in the franchise over the years.

Kind of odd when that happens but it seems to happen quite often. I think people get nostalgic for certain games and it changes their perspective on the game. I can't judge this one since I ...

I think Final Fantasy II's level up system doesn't make too much sense to me lol. Essentially you need to take a good amount of damage for your stats to go up which is odd. It's unique though I will give them that. It's broken in Origins, you can attack your own party members to get stronger lol ...
