    Dragon Quest 8 on 3ds has a save anywhere feature, you should give it a go! I loved it more than I should have
  • @sporkticus4061
    For me it’s Star Ocean: Second story with the difficulty spikes and Octopath Traveler with bosses that have too much HP.

    Loved this countdown (as I enjoy your channel)! Glad to see I’m not alone in sometimes being unable to finish RPGs
  • @minjod
    I didn't expect Jeanne D'Arc to be on this list. To me, it's one of the best RPGs ever
  • @Speznas96
    I am sorry to put it into these words but you will regret not finishing Tokyo Xanadu. It's such a fantastic game especially in the end of the Idol Arc and afterwards up until the End. And no I dont even like this Idol stuff at all but it was okay. Its an important buildup for a main Char so yeah.
  • Persona 5 is one of those for me. Back when my wife and I were just dating, we had two separate save files. One for me and one for both of us to play together. I got so burnt out doing the same missions and palaces over and over. We're finally just now getting to playing the joint one again while mine is abandoned.

    I remember getting stuck in FFT by saving right before a boss fight. I had to replay the boss fight over and over and over because it was a 1v1 fight between the main character and a monster demon. My main was so low leveled that the only way I could win was if he missed 2 of his attacks out of 3 or something like. I replayed until it happened lol. I love that game.

    Hey Erick, great Video, really digging your Top-10 Lists. Here's an idea for another: Top-10 distinctly "unepic" RPGs, where you're not a Chosen One saving the world. Conflict doesn't have to be trivial or cutesy, though, maybe a more realistic setting or resolving a local conflict, whatever ... Anyway, keep up the good work!
  • I'd strongly recommend trying Dragon Quest VIII again, but the 3DS version. Not only can you save almost anywhere, but it also has that fast forward feature that you can use to grind faster. And this is especially easy once you find a decent place to grind battles against Metal Slimes.

    you can use holy bottle to avoid random encounter in Eternia

    te recomiendo la versión de 3ds de DQ8, no hay encuentros aleatorios, así que es más fácil elegir a tus enemigos y farmear xp gp o lo que quieras, es mi segundo juego favorito después de Chrono Trigger

    OMG Jeanne DArc may be in my top 5 SRPGs ever.. Maybe top 3.. And it’s probably one of the few of this genre I did finish hahaha Its beyond tragic we never got a sequel or spiritual successor by Level 5..
  • @jangiurg5295
    Great video, made me dowmload Jeanne d'Arc on my PSP emulator, had no idea it existed, definitely excited to try it out :)
  • @jefcrow3534
    every rpg you listed i have played from start to finish XD
  • @mastrblastrr
    I love the Dragon Quest (Warrior) Games from back in my teens I’m greatful for having played those archaic RPGs like DQ and Phantasy Star to appreciate newer RPGs with more save options and RPGs with save states...
  • @apparition33
    I also loved Shining force 2 but never finished it. That music is great. I did beat Tokyo Xanadu though. That’s one of my favorite Ps4 games.
  • @eriklarson7023
    I feel you on DQ8, I got stuck at the 2-part boss battle against Dhoulmagus and had to do some MAJOR grinding to get past him. All the battles after that were like cake compared to it and I finished it. Both Final Fantasy IV and IX were games I loved but didn’t complete for years for various reasons. Right now the RPG I’ve enjoyed the most but haven’t completed is probably Lunar 2 on PS1. I’m planning on getting back to it eventually.
  • @JetBlack2024
    I forced myself to finally finish Xenosaga episode 2. Every battle was like a boss fight because all of them took forever at the end. It’s so bad the battle system. It’s like they forgot to add an appropriate battle system and wanted you to focus on the story. I got to the last 3 bosses and quit for a long time. Went back last year and finished it somehow.
