Digimon world 1, 2 and 3 for me. dunno why I keep coming back to these, eventhough I played most of the games you guys mention.

 

[Penthero]

Lunar 1&2, Star ocean 2 and Tales of Destiny 2 which is the one that made me follow the tales series.

KOTOR and KOTOR 2.
FF9 was the my first hoop into FF.
Front Mission 3 was my first turn based mech RPG.

I played 1 and 3. I can't find any pirated copy of 2 anywhere in the nightmarket back in early 2000s.
I adore 1 because its pre-rendered stages were really cool. 3 had that Pokemon feel somewhat.

 

[RandomReader2023]

Dragon Quest I , II , III (both the NES versions and the SNES remakes of the trilogy) , IV , V & VI.

Final Fantasy VI is pretty memorable. I still find myself humming bits of the soundtrack every now and then.

The Veldt soundtrack

Skyrim

I guess SKYRIM is OLD @$$ because for many times it was milked like a cow.
10 years.

Probably. But I originally played them on a SNES. 😺

 

[Jergal]

PS1, SNES, or even older more esoteric console.
Chrono Trigger is probably objectively the best I’ve played, but I got most entertainment from Star Ocean 2 on PSX.

Never quite liked jRPG, because one of my first game was Neverwinter Nights 2 and to this day, cRPG are peak of RPG genre for me. And NwN 2, BG 2 and PlanetScape: Tornment are still hold their ground in face of modern RPG (sometimes even being much better), especially nwn 2 with proper 3d graphics feels not really outdated.

 

[Jergal]

Sid Meyer's Pirates on the Commodore 64.

Best pirate game to this day

Trails in the Sky, if you consider 2004 games to be old

2024 now, so yes it is old as ... most of in the thread, if not older.

I guess the sequel of that is Trails of Cold Steel, which I played.

Did not know Tales of Eternia is actually Tales of Destiny 2. I guess because I only watched the anime for Tales of Eternia.

Shining Tears x Wind is a good original animation too. I will not call.it an adaptation because it focuses on the bro, not the hero.

There actually is a Tales of Destiny 2 on PS2 in JP, you can find a fan translation on the internet. Eternia was called ToD2 in America for some reason.
