Characters, quests and progression: the RPG is the genre of epic and immersion, from JRPG to Western RPG. RomWize re-ranks the best games in the genre by its re-evaluated scores, each with its current score, its versions, their rarity and their collector value.
"Enriched version of FFXII adding the early FF Job system, entirely reconfiguring character progression. The Zodiac Jobs offer unmatched strategic customisation possibilities. The benchmark version of the game, superior to the original in every dimension of gameplay depth."
"Vengeance polishes an already strong formula: demanding turn-based combat, addictive demon fusion, and a new story route that shifts everything. Exploring Da'at feels cleaner, and the overall pacing is better tuned than in the original release."
"An absolute masterpiece, the first fully 3D Final Fantasy on a Sony console. The CTB combat system, the moving story of Tidus and Yuna, and the art direction of Spira compose a transcendent experience. One of the greatest achievements in role-playing game history."
"Absolute masterpiece. RPG that transcends the genre with an exceptional universe, a unique dynamic combat system and music of rare beauty. Saturn exclusive that has become legendary. One of the greatest RPG experiences of all time."
"A modern tribute to 16-bit-era JRPGs that outgrows mere pastiche: luminous pixel art, smooth traversal with no random encounters and timing-based combat with bite. The story takes its time, but the generosity of the whole wins out."
"Dark Souls II is an ambitious sequel expanding the world with Drangleic and multiple interconnected areas. Less cohesive than the first but still demanding and rich. Excellent continuity for fans."
"Enriched Japanese version of FFX with the bonus Dark Aeons, Penance, Expert and Black Sphere Grids and additional scenes. The most complete JRPG experience on PS2 with content for hundreds of hours. The definitive version for fans wanting to exhaust the title."
"Final Fantasy VII is one of the most important video games ever created. Revolutionary 3D transition, epic scenario with Cloud and Sephiroth, legendary Nobuo Uematsu soundtrack and stunning FMV sequences. An absolute masterpiece that defined an entire generation and remains unsurpassed."
"The wirebug redefines hunting mobility: climbing, vaulting and mounting beasts becomes instinctive. More accessible than its forebears without losing combat depth, and the Switch presentation stays impressive for the hardware."
