Septerra Core has pretty cool story. If you want a hack and slash ARPG then I recommend Nox.

The Exile/Avernum series is very unknown, and a great RPG

Xenogears (will never be rated high enough), Vagrant story (innovative if repetitive and emo), Final fantasy tactics, Final fantasy 6, (Not under rated, but before all squares chars were emo, still :D) and lastly, Dragon Age (Which is sadly overshadowed by a much more shallow title from the same company, Mass Effect 2 takes 6 hours to beat, and is an adventure game, with the most laughable RPG tack-ons).

Props to Lunar fans too
Skies of Arcadia, whats up, you could use some more love. :D

Demons souls, I don't know how this is call this an RPG sometimes, you could read a bathroom wall for a bigger story. But the online features make this a very sweet adventure game, even if all you do is level, farm, and leave people bad advice. Still very fun, even if the entire plot was replaced by grinding. (Think Diablo 1, with more polish, and less story.)

Lost Odyssey ... sigh. At least timing the perfects was cool But if you thoroughly investigate towns you will be sucked into hours and hours and hours of reading, as in, hours of reading in a row. Flashbacks come in floods.

Ancient Domains of Mystery, an awesome roguelike.
Daggerfall, the best FP RPG ever made. (It's actually available for free download at the Elder Scrolls webpage).
ELF. Although more of a platformer than an RPG, it has a lot of RPG elements, so I'll classify it as such.
DnD: Eye of the Beholder. Spent tons of hours with a pal on his AMIGA playing this. Those damn chittering spider creepy-sounds haunt me still, fifteen years later ;_;

Earthbound

With honorable mention to Legend of Dragoon.

Legend of Legaia is DEFINITELY one of the best games I have ever played. I have spent hundreds of hours on that game alone. It was one of the first RPG's I ever played, which was a disappointment because almost NOTHING could live up to that game. If you've never heard of it or played it, you MUST do so ASAP via any means possible!

Agreed that it was an awesome game. Still not as good as Earthbound though.

I love PST, but it's more underplayed than underrated. Every legitimate review I have seen of it has always been bursting with praise.

Definitely Mount and Blade, if you actually consider it an RPG.

This one isn't underrated. It's epic.

Example of some underrated/less known RPG's that are actually worthwile to play:

Lionheart: Legacy of the Crusader



Jade Empire



Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines



Might and Magic VIII: Day of the Destroyer

Yes, Vampire: Bloodlines was fantastic!

On Planescape... I've tried playing it like 5 times. I always end up quitting an hour or two in. God, someone update the graphics! I really want to finish it, eventually.

I second this. Most people didn't hear about this game and it was buggy as fuck when it came out but it was pretty sweet. Also, I like how people are just throwing out their favorite RPGs in an "underrated RPG" thread. YEAH FF7 AND CHRONO TRIGGER MANG

Skies of Arcadia is just little known, but it was rated high. Even so it is one of the best games ever, and it seems to be underrated by many people. The dragon quest series is underrated in the states as well, I don't know why my fellow Americans can't seem to grasp the beauty of those games.

Grandia II for Dreamcast I always liked. I believe its the exact same for ps2 or PC but the graphics might not be the best so I've heard.

Legend of Dragoon was fantastic. One of my favorites.
Guess a lot of people didn't like the addition system.

I would like to make a voice for the fire emblem series, even though they are officially recognized as turn-based strategy, its an awesome collection of RPGs (albeit a bit too original).
