Honestly, give it a shot. You'll thank me. It's amazing. Or watch an LP on it. TotalBiscuit (the I suck at SC guy) has an AWESOME one. Although it's incomplete still i think.

I have tried many times to get into Shining Force 2 but I lose interest like 30 minutes in. It feels too kiddy and innocent. The first one had a much better story and charachters.

I don't really know how games like Earthbound and Xenogears can be considered "underrated," the former being a massive cult hit in America, and the latter actually being a PSX greatest hits title. But I'll throw in my two cents for those.

Actually I don't see Lufia II on your list, I guess its too far off from being considered underrated, dunno. Excellent rpg, great part of my childhood.

Arcanum.

Not sure if it's underrated, but I know the vast majority of people have not played it. There is immense depth to the NPCs you can meet and have in your party as well as the world itself. Lots of hidden stuff to explore and a very good character development system.


Good call!

It's been a loooong time since i've played Arcanum and the cd box just happen to be 2m away from here.

A pity this game is ugly as fuck, it really has a depth that most rpg miss.

Btw did anyone mention Vagrant story? back in the day it was overshadowed by the FFs although it was a good rpg too.

Vote for legend of dragoon. Game was so fucking good. My copy was broken and it would glitch out at one point so I never beat it.

I fucking loved Quest 64. I've replayed it like 5 times whole-way through, and it's awesome everytime. I dunno why people think it's the worst rpg ever made, it's amazing. Simple, but amazing.

Another definitely underrated rpg is Aidyn Chronicles: The First Mage (n64). That game was fucking awesome. It had its glitches (save often, the game can and will freeze/crash at the worst possible time), but if you saved often you wouldn't have problems. The world was absolutely gigantic, you could never find everything there is to find even if you played three times through. You could choose different people for your party every game and choose to use/emphasize different skills/tactics for everyone every game: it definitely had replay value.

Angband (angband.oook.cz) is probably the best rpg that ever existed. It is however, incredibly long and incredibly difficult. When you die (and trust me, you will die, probably in the town too first time you play it), you have start over 100% from scratch with everything re-randomized. So if you get lucky and find an awesome artifact weapon that makes the game easy-mode, and an Ancient Multi-Hued Dragon breathes poison (offscreen) and you die instantly, odds are you won't find that artifact ever again, or if you do, you'll only find it after it's useless. You can replay this game forever. It's a different, unique game to some extent every single time you play it, even if you beat it (and well, you probably won't).

I don't know if Breath of Fire II was underrated or not, but I do know that it was awesome. Really surreal story. Kind of long/hard, but that's not a bad thing.

I liked Tales of Symphonia, it had a great musical score, the story was long and interesting, but it was somewhat aggravating. I never actually finished the game. I dunno if it was underrated or not, also.

Legend of Legaia was cool, but I personally never played it very much. My friend played whole game, and he loved it.
