1. Baldur’s Gate 3
2. Zelda: TotK
3. Alan Wake 2
4. Octopath Traveler 2
5. RE4 Remake

Basic as f***, sure, but goddamn, hard to disagree with it.

OT2 is hands down the most underrated “semi-AAA” release of the year though. Legit one of the greatest JRPGs of all time, and one of the best soundtracks in JRPG history (which basically means it’s the best gaming soundtrack of the year).

1. Baldurs Gate 3
2. Armord Core 6
3. Warhammer Rogue Trader
4. Mario Wonder

I dont have a 5th game that came out this year that I liked enough for the list

Is OT2 really worth it im a bit scared of jrpgs cause I think they feature alot of grindy stuff I dont like but many people told me it was great

Didn’t even know they made a second Octopath since I sold my Switch

Grinding in it actually isn’t too bad because there’s a speed up option and also accessories you can get that GREATLY speed up the process.

Essentially rectifies nearly every issue there is in the first. Legit an all timer of the genre.

1. Baldur's Gate 3
2. Spiderman 2
3. Zelda TOTK
4. Super Mario RPG
5. Honkai Star Rail

I feel like I'm forgetting something though ... I just got Armored Core and Persona Tactica too, so I can't really speak on them yet

There's a demo for it if you wanna give it a try, I downloaded it, but haven't touched it yet

How is the story? Always had mixed experience with jrpg writing

Octopath 2
Fire Emblem Engage
Honkai Star Rail
Sea of Stars
TOTK

if we're including DLC then Xenoblade Future Redeemed was better than 90% of games this year. Trails into Reverie is a localization that deserves praise too

RE4R
Spiderman2

Didn’t play too many other games outside of hogwarts and Star Wars Jedi survivor which were both underwhelming

Solid. It’s more like a series of (8) short stories that intertwine at the very end.
