Uploaded December 2021 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago
After the original Final Fantasy title sold over half a million copies in Japan, it really didn’t take long for Squaresoft to capitalize on this success with a sequel. Final Fantasy II was released from the NES in 1988, only a year after the original, and although it received some decent reviews in Japan at the time, it is now widely considered as the weakest in the series.
Final Fantasy 2 did quite a few things differently, but with this, came a fair share of problems. Problems that will drive you insane. However, I also know that there are many people out there who are interested in seeing how this series started, for better or for worse, and it’s to those people that I say: This is NEARLY the perfect way to experience FF2.

Unless you’ve grown up in Japan, you may be unaware how massive the Megami Tensei series is. Since 1987, there’s been 18 releases, and re-releases of the main series, and even more spinoff series including Persona, Devil Survivor and Digital Devil Saga. The latest in this massive series is Shin Megami Tensei V, released as a Switch exclusive in late 2021.
If you’re new to the series, then SMTV is a great place to start, as there’s no requirements to have played any of the previous games, plus, it’s bloody addictive!
It didnt quite win the 2021 RPG of the year award, but it was close. Watch this review to find out why!

Top 100 JRPGs of all time! Number 97: Valkyrie Profile
The JRPG genre has been evolving for around 40 years now. It has seen its share of ups and downs, but right now, its arguably in the best place that it has ever been. Since the early 80s, we’ve seen the releases of 1000s of JRPGs, or JRPG style titles, from hundreds of different developers, but it goes without saying that not all of them are created equally.
This series is going to look at the very best JRPGs ever made, or at least, my favorite. This is my personal top 100 JRPGs of all time! I’m certain my top 100 will be different to yours, so let me know your thoughts in the comments below. Is something too high? Is something too low, what do you think? 💬

![Bravely Default 2 - Review [This is why I love Job systems!]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XvRgYZeS8-c/mqdefault.jpg "Bravely Default 2 - Review [This is why I love Job systems!]
The original Bravely Default is a title that I have always wanted to play, but never got around to it due to me not really being a handheld gamer. This really disappointed me, as I have always been a HUGE fan of job systems in RPGs, which is something that fans of the series praise, as the stand out mechanic.
As you would expect, this acclaimed job system, as well as the unique Brave and Default battle mechanics, all make a return, and just like in the original, these are the standout features of Bravely default 2.
Now, despite what the name suggests, Bravely Default 2, is actually the third title in the series.
As soon as I started up the game, I immediately felt some old school vibes. Bravely Default 2 reminded me of the Super Nintendo era Final Fantasy games I used to love, all those years ago.
For those of you after an old school style JRPG, with a highly addictive job and combat system, then Bravely Default II, may be worth checking out.
Have you had a chance to play this yet? Let me know your thoughts.
