Turn based games tended to be something I sort of stopped getting into as I got older. Despite really enjoying games that involve tons of strategy and thought like Hitman or 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim, I struggled more with games that are turn based. I’ve tried to get back into them with stuff like Pokemon and the occasional board game sim that I play with my friends, but I just know there’s games out there I’d like a lot more.
I do want to give Fire Emblem, Bug Fables, and Sea of Stars a try at some point soon. Was just wondering if there’s anything else I’m missing.
Super Mario RPG is really fun, I like that era game with optional challenge bosses. The PS1/2 Final Fantasy games are good if you like the anime bullshit too (I do mostly). However, the best turn-based gaming experience I’ve had is Pokemon Black Randomizer, where you can tweak the settings to give gym leaders more Pokemon, 10% higher leveled Pokemon, random Pokemon and move sets. It takes a great base game and makes it challenging and more exciting.
