Hello everyone! I really want to get into the jrpg genre but I have no idea which game would be good for a beginner. I have played persona 5 and I really enjoyed it. Any recommendations would be really appreciated!

      Xenoblade is one of my favourite series of all times! Definitely recommend!

      Never played dragon quest but DQ11 looks so good.

      Also it depends on what you’re looking for, jrpgs are a vast category and persona feels very different from final fantasy.

      Are you looking for something turn based or real time/action? What setting would you like?

        Honestly! Xenoblade is genuinely such a good game/series and I don’t see people talking about it as much as it deserves

          Probably because the Xeno series has always been very niche, xeno chronicles being switch-locked restricted the playerbase by a lot (not saying the switch market is small, but it’s very casual)

      Xenoblade Chronicles 2 was my entry point to the world of JRPG games. I would definitely recommend the whole series for first timer.
