I just can't dig Xeno 3. I love Xeno 1 (beat twice), love Xeno 2 even more (despite excessive fanservice and gacha mechanics), but Xeno 3 is a game I could never beat. I'm 25h into the game and had to drop it several times through the months because I find the characters (and even worse, the bad leader guys in red armor) to be too goofy and childish, I can't take them seriously at all. All the drama they try to bring is quickly ruined by them. The bad performance, plain world map, and forgetable soundtrack doesn't help either. So far I think Xeno 2 is the best game in the series (still far from perfect, but good enough), and its combat system is the best so far too.

This is not in any order but I can't do a top three here's my top ten. Dragon quest 11 S- Honestly this game is just just amazing Xenoblade Chronicles 3- The combat is so deep and the storyline is just so good and Hey. I mean it was nominated for not only RPG of the year but game of the year too. Trials of Mana- Being someone who was pretty upset not being able to play Mana 2 back in the 90's, Square really made it up to everyone 2 decades later. I love this game. Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster- With all the added touches and final fantasy 6 being my favorite game of all time, how could this not be on the list. Persona 5-Its Persona, it's amazing, nuff said. Live A Live- Another game we got kind of screwed out of in the nineties. Just started playing this last year and honestly this game is so cool. Y's VIII:Lacrimosa of Dana-Such a fun game. BOTW-Like it or not Zelda is now basically a JPG and there's like an unlimited amount of stuff to do. I'm sure there's a bunch more. What I can think of tho atm.

13S is an amazing game, the only problem I had with it was that I personally had a hard time playing it for more than an hour or two at a time. It's very story driven and with so many options I needed time off to contemplate everything that was going on. I got the platinum for the game too! It was fairly easy to get as well. The battle system was pretty fun too, it was pretty straightforward which was nice since I'm getting tired of games with overly complicated min maxing.

The only difference with my list would be Octopath Traveler 2 instead of 13 Sentinels. 13 Sentinels is a bit of a point of contention for me, I love the art, story, and music. The gameplay though just didn't work for me. Call me boring, but it would have landed better for me if it went with a more traditional battle system.

I agree with the games I have played on your list being on a top 10 Switch list, though there are a few I still need to play. Choosing a top 10 JRPG list with only one game per series is a hard one for me, but I will make an attempt at it. 01. A tie between SMT III: Nocturne HD Remaster and SMT V (maybe this is cheating, but I couldn't not have both of these games on my top 10 list. Nocturne is in a tie for my absolute favorite game of all time and SMT V is my third absolute favorite game of all time so they both need to be on here. Of course, SMT IV is my second absolute favorite game of all time and it really needs to be on the Switch as well. The Super Famicom versions of SMT I & II are also available on the Japanese version of Nintendo Switch Online, so maybe those deserve an honorable mention as well.) 02. Phantasy Star IV (This would have been in tie for #1 with Nocturne since it is my other absolute favorite game of all time, but I didn't want to have too many ties for #1.) 03. Persona 5 Royal 04. Ys VIII (I'm also just as fond of Ys IX as I am of Ys VIII, but the Switch port of Ys VIII runs much more smoothly than the Switch port of Ys IX.) 05. Undernauts: Labyrinth of Yomi 06. 13 Sentinels (One of the best Vanillaware games, now they really need to get Odin Sphere, Dragon's Crown, and Muramasa on the Switch.) 07. Xenoblade Chronicles 3 08. Live-A-Live 09. Bravely Default II 10. Fire Emblem: Three Houses There are a lot of great JRPGs on the Switch though, so listing only 10 of the best makes me feel like I'm leaving a lot of them out that deserve to be recognized. 😆 There are also a lot of great Western-style RPGs on the Switch, some I would recommend are: Planescape: Torment, Darkest Dungeon, Baldur's Gate I & II, Death's Gambit: Afterlife, Icewind Dale, Dark Souls Remastered, Vambrace: Cold Soul, Lovecraft's Untold Stories, Neverwinter Nights, Skyrim, The Witcher III, Divinity Original Sin II, and Fatal Labyrinth.

If Ys X is structured more like Ys VIII, then it will probably run fine on the Switch. Also, Falcom is now handling the Switch ports of Ys games in house and they had previously outsourced them, so they will probably be more vigilant about making sure the games run well on the Switch.

If you guys have a list of games you want to play and it only keeps growing and growing, let me give you a word of advice. If you've played one Shim Megami Tensei or Persona game, then YOU'VE PLAYED THEM ALL. They are all the same. Well made, sure, but clones nonetheless. So just check out one and then move on.

None of these games are my type of game to play. They are all pretty much open world which is something I'm not looking for in JRPGs mostly because open world games always have these camera rotations that cause shitty motion sickness for me. Now if it's something like Triangle Strategy, I can play it, but it's not even listed in your video.

Unfortunately I am leaving out so many good ones. Battlechasers Nightwar, Collection of Mana, Darkest Dungeon, Disgaea (pick a number), Dragons Dogma, Dusk Diver, I Am Sestuna, Labyrinth of Refrain, Langrisser 1 and 2, Live A Live, The World Ends With You, Ni No Kuni (both of them), Octopath Traveler, The Outer Worlds, Super Robot Wars (pick a letter,or number), Tales of Vesperia. I know that I'm missing stuff.

I'll never understand why people liked 13 Sentinels. The story was more confusing than any story I have ever played, there was so much back tracking I wanted to kill myself, and the mech combat areas were way too short and easy. The game was absolutely boring, I kept falling asleep trying to get through it. I platinumed it on PS4, only because every trophy is basically story driven, but honestly could not even tell you what the story was about by the time I finished. This is literally one of the only games I forced myself to actually beat and had zero fun doing it. Everyone says this is such a great game, but good god I hated every minute of it.

For the Nintendo Switch ... Dragon Quest XI, Octopath Traveler II, and either Ys VIII or Ys IX. Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition is a very special game but it's almost too big and the overload of side quests, many which gatekeep you from key abilities or skills, is a tough pill to swallow. Great game but the grind with side quests and items is a legit issue. Keep up the great work !!

Man what a good list, while i am some what suprised that P5R isnt number 1 i also cant blame you since XBC3 is such an amazing game in every regard. While P5R was also my entrance way into the whole persona series and the smt series it was also the best JRPG i have ever played objectively talking about a package as a whole. But the XBC series is so special i played the first one on switch and the story blew my mind instantly got the 2nd and i finished the 2nd in 4 days with over 100 hours while i did that the 3rd got announced and my god did they deliver with that one. Currently enjoying Furture Redeemed and seeing how all the titles in this series come together is truly beautiful. Love that you are supporting the right games keep it up.

If you liked Awakening's story or found it ok, Engage feels the same. 3H story is pretty overblown, its nowhere near a half decent book, light novel or visual novel. Its not "GOD TIER" again, go read a book.

I really feel in the minority, but I really cannot stand the Xenoblade story. The original Chronicles I enjoyed a lot (but that jrpg grind towards the end!), but the jrpg/anime tropes and the constant (and by this time cliché) story twists bug me more and more with each installment and when you start nearing the end I just wish for it to be over. Like I said, I'm probably pretty much alone in feeling like this 😅

The first non-mobile game I played in years was Persona 5 Royal. I'm not 100% done yet, but I love most of it. Had to take a break (ongoing) because of the disgusting and absolutely unnecessary homophobia/transphobia, and also I think it's so messed up how Ann was treated during the Madarame arc + how creepy Yusuke was about it. It really could've been a perfect jrpg if not for these things, I think. So in the meantime, thank you for this list as I'm searching for other better-written games now. 13 Sentinels seems promising.

I picked up a switch oled last spring, first console I've has since... I suppose xbox 360 was still a relevant console. I've always loved the story telling of jrpgs so it was an easy choice. The only problem I've run into is there are some stellar rpgs but they span across multiple games. Xenoblade 1-3 is on the shelf and I'm definitely going to play them but man.. it's like a two year commitment to play these games. So far I've loved octopath 1 and 2, astral chain, the world ends with you, and tales of vesperia but I absolutely adore Nier Automata and I am Setsuna. I'm just a sucker for a good story.

I LOVE Atelier Ryza! The story was so wholesome and just some small town kids wanting adventure and it was a challenge to get used to the alchemy and the combat. The first game was a great intro and there’s so much in this game that you could easily pull 100 hours and still have goals you’d want to meet. It’s excellent. I really need to start the Sophie ones. Also Octopath Traveler 2 is up there with one of my most favorite game experiences EVER. And Harvestella is my vote for someone who is coming from life sim/farming life games and want to get into RPGs. The art style and the dungeons are much more mature than like Rune Factory.

Ahhhh, fabulous list!!! I need to re-do my list maybe at the end of this year as it has already changed since doing it in November!!! SO many Switch JRPGs and so many of them are my favourite games of all time! So nice to see DQXI here since that's a BIG fav for me! I'm most likely playing XC3 this summer with a bunch of people actually, so I can't wait!!! Huge Xenoblade fan! Great video as always, Ren!

I played Persona 4 golden before playing Persona 5 Royal, so P5 wasn't for me THAT good. Of course it's a very good JRPG, but about story/character/scénario, P5 is very far to be good as P4. Nanako best little sister ever.

Taru! My top three jrpgs on the Switch, without taking Persona 5 into consideration (one of my favorites games) I would probably go with 13 Sentinels, Three houses, and Octopath traveler. Maybe dragon quest could make it to my top three but unfortunately, I haven't played it long enough to get a real feeling of the game.

As a huge rpg fan all my life, and a lover of the Fire Emblem series , I thought FE Engage was a dumpster fire. Unpopular opinion, I know. The battle system was good but it was so convoluted with all the emblems and their plethora of skills that you could mix and match with the job classes was too much. The story was not intriguing whatsoever and there was less than minimal effort put into character development. Etie for example, speaks about her muscles or lifting weights in every single sentence. Most of the characters had the same problem. I agree with Three Houses being God Tier though!
