My first real RPG. Unforgettable story, incredibly charming and unique characters, art style, music and... the heartbreaking feeling of losing a loved one (damn you, Zio...). The name "Alys" has always stuck with me and, as a kid, I decided my daughter would be named after Alys Brangwin. Fast forward 30 years later, I'm a proud dad of a girl called Alys (Btw, I only disclosed the inspiration to her mom waaay later ;) )

I got this game along with so many others, mostly JRPGs, from an older neighbor when he was done playing video games in general. Somehow I had missed this series but he had everything except the first one in his collection, which became mine. I love Phantasy star IV so much, it was so epic back in the day, even if the sound on my cartridge was dead for some reason, I still played it, and even having heard the music almost a decade later online, I still feel the feelings I felt in those moments, so under rated.

First jrpg I ever played and thoroughly enjoyed as a 10 year old. Played through it a couple of times and discovered several macros, many fond memories. My first DND wizard was named Rune
I got to play this through a few Sega compilation games. Usually I'm not a fan of this style RPG games. I will say very quickly I ended up loving this one. Originally planned to be an Sega CD game. This is rather impressive Sega Genesis can play this game so well. This is easily the greatest RPG game on the system by far. You get so much content to keep you busy for hours. The audio as a whole is beautifully well done. Truly rememberable characters you'll deeply care about. I absolutely loved parts of the story done in this unique anime style. Phantasy Star IV was meant to be the end of the classic Phantasy Star series. It's safe to say it ended on such a great note. This game is beyond words truly amazing in every possible way imaginable!!!

It was the first and only time I've actually shed a tear in a videogame. Incredible storytelling behind what's apparently another JRPG. I played it back in the 90s in my Megadrive and it's one of my most beloved games ever.
I remember renting this so much from blockbuster that they eventually just gave me their copy, I still have it to this day. This game was amazing and sparked my love for rpg's since the day I turned it on. The music, the storytelling the battles, the combo attacks, everything this game had going for it was amazing and deserves to be remembered. I remember my first combo attack had be with the surprised pikachu face as a kid.

Lost Odyssey
Lost OdysseyLost Odyssey is set in a world in which a "Magic-Industrial Revolution" is taking place. While magic energy existed in all living creatures beforehand, it suddenly became far more powerful thirty years before the beginning of the game. Because of this, it has affected society greatly, with devices called "Magic Engines" harnessing this power for lighting, automobiles, communication, and robots, among other uses. While previously only a select few could wield magic, many magicians gained the ability. However, such progress has also caused two nations to develop new and more powerful weapons of mass destruction. The kingdom of Gohtza and the Republic of Uhra (which recently converted from a monarchy). Uhra is building Grand Staff, a gigantic magic engine, while the heavily industrialized Gohtza actively pursues magic research of their own. A third nation, the Free Ocean State of Numara, remains isolated and neutral, though it is falling into disarray due to a general attempting to stage a coup d'etat. Uhra, at war with Khent, a nation of beastmen, sends its forces to the Highlands of Wohl for a decisive battle at the start of the game.
