What non-medieval RPGs have you enjoyed?

[Marcus]

Did anyone say Final Fantasy VI? It's really one of the few console Steampunk games.

Chrono Trigger changes depending on the age, but it's mostly Steampunk as well.

 

[macchia]

Honestly, I can't think of more than 5 games that are actually medieval in the correct sense. Plenty are traditional fantasy, but that's often a completely different animal since it almost always includes a futuristic level and a deminsional void level which Im pretty sure didnt exist in the ol' dark ages.

 

[sandgolem]

Septerra Core was neat. Also Earthbound, Evermore, Torment & the Personas.

 

[Pyromanga]

oooh! Paper Mario!

 

[FlippyD]

oooh! Paper Mario!

NOICE!!

\m/ \m/

 

[Jstreet]

Xenogears!

Xenosaga!

YEAH!

Xenogears = my favorite RPG.

The Wild Arms series is set in the pseudo old-west, and is usually really good.

There's a list I can agree with.

 

[Buster]

And how could I forget Kindred Saga, probably the best (and yet unfinished) game for RM2K?

 

[siggy]

Gosh, I can't believe I didn't think of Earthbound immediately.

Many of the games you guys are mentioning are darned good.

(And Parasite Eve! Oh how I long for a part 3!)

(And Parasite Eve! Oh how I long for a part 3!)

*weeps with joy at imagining it

 

[Kraft]

I dont play that many, but one that I have liked a lot is Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2.

It is such a huge game!
I have not beaten it yet, but I have already put in over 60 hours of gameplay!

 

[arcthemonkey]

I'm a star-wars nerd, and a RPG nerd, so any time the two converge, I become very nearly pregnant. Fertile, at least.

Oh, also, I really enjoyed Rogue Galaxy. I think the trick is seeing it for what it is - a retardedly customizable dungeon crawl.

 

[WeissRaben]

Uhm...Summon Knights (but only the first, the second was obviously medieval...)
Final Fantasy VI, Dark Chronicles (or Dark Cloud 2, depending on how it's called in different nations), and maybe...Final Fantasy X-2, as the X is much similar to the V (Ruins, but no technology).

 

[Fafnir]

Pokemon's good lol.

Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation 1 and 2. Best GBA games out.

 

[Marcus]

Okage:Shadow King (which NOBODY has seen before),

You must not hang out here often because I mention it every time a "non-medieval" rpg topic pops up.

 

[KhaoticErase]

FFs 6, 7, 8, and 10

Skies of Arcadia

Ephemeral Fantasia (though that one MIGHT be considered medievil)

 

[arctrooper48]

The only non-medivial RPG I can remember playing right off the top of my head is Pokemon.

 

[Sabao]

(And Parasite Eve! Oh how I long for a part 3!)

You'd think with the improved technology and success the first two met this would've happened ages ago instead of Squeenix going on about their remake rampage.

I've played dozens of non-medieval RPGs, but maybe because I have a very narrow definition of what medieval is. Among those that roll of my head would be the Shenmue series, Wild ARMs, Evolution, Phantasy Star and Xenogears.

Hey, sabao, about Parasite Eve...

Eight years after the release of Parasite Eve 2, Square Enix today showed off a trailer of a new Parasite Eve game at the Square Enix Party 2007. Little is known about this game, titled "The 3rd Birthday," except that it will appear on mobile phones from Japan's leading carrier NTT DoCoMo. The 30-second trailer depicted series protagonist Aya Brea wielding a gun. The game's story will apparently take place eight years after the events of Parasite Eve 2.
The new Parasite Eve installment has yet to receive a release date.

 

[Mercutio]

8 years? Damn. On topic....

Parasite Eve
Xenogears
Persona 2: Eternal punishment

Still none top Vagrant Story to me <.<
