It’s good that developers make it easy to customize the soundtrack, although I didn’t feel the need to as I found the songs for Rebel Galaxy exceptionally good. Have not played Outlaw yet. I’ve read reviews that gameplay wise it wasn’t as good as the first one.
I see some Final Fantasy mentions, but I’m throwing Final Fantasy Tactics in particular into the ring.
Great gameplay (min-max to your heart’s content) that will let the player fail. Also will let the player soft lock themselves and require loading an earlier save if they didn’t have “optimal” builds for some encounters…
It has a story! That moves forward all of the time! Just let it happen and don’t think too much about it. You’re a mere mortal fighting up against gods at some point. Maybe?
Great soundtrack! My personal favorites are below.
Actually my hours are 3pm-1am and I’m a night owl. It’s only about 40-45mins round trip. Roll out of bed and go to work, then come home to video games and movies.
This is all going to be “great gameplay” rather than “great story”.
If you have a way to play 3DS games and a tolerance for punishment in your JRPG dungeon crawlers, the Etrian Odyssey series has some of Yuzo Koshiro’s best work.
Finally … Monster Hunter is an incredibly fun and addictive game series, and though it doesn’t center the music quite as much as a typical JRPG does, it’s got some great stuff. I particularly like the soundtrack of MH: World – although the newer game MH: Rise tried something new with its mostly choral arrangements, I think they are not quite as memorable overall.
Arena battle from Monster Hunter: World (it’s particularly impressive the way this theme, the small-monsters arena battle theme, and several of the town themes reuse the same melodies in different arrangements)
Secondly anyone who said FURI - that game is a masterpiece and the OST is so well tied into the fights it’s hard to separate them. Seriously, they gave the artists details on the bosses and their arena, fighting style and other notes and said make a song that fits
