I began my love of RPGs in the 80s. My first was Dragon Warrior on the original Nintendo. Second was the first Final Fantasy. I fell in love. And this was long before they started adding in-depth stories and character personalities. Final Fantasy X is still my favorite. I was hooked and bought every one I could find. Those two franchises have kept me coming back over the decades. Currently playing Dragon Quest XI and Final Fantasy XV on and off.
There were a few others that really caught me up. Legend of Dragoon, Lunar the Silver Star, Secret of Mana, and Chrono Trigger.
Was curious if there was anyone else with similar roots. Or at least the same love for Fantasy RPGs and JRPGs.
