My next game i start will be Star Ocean First Departure R. And if i finsih that game fast enough i probably play either Persona 4 Golden or a rerun of Nier Replicant.
I also still play Final Fantasy XVI and Soulhackers 2 occasionally, because it’s hard for me to finish these game.
Last month in only finisehd redemption reapers.
What do you intend to play?
The was the first Final Fantasy I had to hate-play to finish. Between the encounter rate, 20 second load times to get into said encounters (I hope you’re playing a quicker version), and the brutally sluggish pace in combat, I had a really rough time with it.
On the plus side, FF9 got me to finally start looking at JRPGs not made by Square, and I discovered Suikoden II and Valkyrie Profile soon after.
Duckstation seems to load everything fine.
Suikoden 2 is a classic. Square definitely had a giant pile of RPGs for the PSX. Star ocean and Ogre Battle are two other good non Square games.
