Man, i just want a finished state xenogears.

Xenogears modern remake divided in two games or an HD-2D remake with everything fleshed out

Playing Xenogears for the first time! 17 hours in and I’m loving it so much. It’s already made a case for being in my top 10-15 favorite RPGs of all time. Every bit of it continues to impress me - it’s incredibly cinematic, bursting with wild ideas, interesting characters, creative-varied gameplay and a super fun combat system, deep world-building and lore, great aesthetics and art work, and just… has such a “cool” factor to it. Plus mechs!!!

Thanks to you i have gotten onto old school rpgs for a year now, thank you

Man, nobody ever puts Threads of Fate on these lists. Threads of Fate is one of the best PS1 games and a sequel was even teased in the true ending. I was so mad for so many years that it never got a sequel. Now, I've just given up hope completely.

I forgot all about the LOD pause screen lol. It gave me BOF3 vibes. That OST was 🔥

Rogue Galaxy is a certified hood classic. I played it/rented it so much in high school that after the 5th rental the dude at the counter was like "keep it, man". I hope that dude gets everything he ever wanted in life.

A list that includes LoD, Lost Odyssey and Xenogears? Man I thought it was a list of my top 10 at first lol I wish all of these got sequels. I would so eat it up

Roque Galaxy spotted, immediately yelled in joy. Love that game!

so glad you mentioned legend of dragoon in this video. it was the first game that came to mind as soon as I saw the title

Man, that Dragoon soundtrack gets me every time, hit especially hard in the intermission. I would actually love to see a prequel for LoD, the whole journey covering the Dragon Campaign would be awesome. So many other good choices in this video too!

I liked the peek behind the curtain with the mic being hit. That gave me a good laugh.

I remember that Microsoft actually wanted to turn Lost Odyssey into a full franchise, because it was impressed by its sales in both Japan and US. However, due to the some conflicts between Mistwalker and Microsoft that didn't happened and the title didn't get the sequel. Great video as always!

I see The Legend of Dragoon in the thumbnail and I must watch and agree. Crystalis on this list! Also agree with that.

I argue that rather than a sequel, that The Legend of Dragoon deserves a remake & prequel. There is so much that happens before the events of the game that it be worth playing through especially with the prior Dragoon Spirit Holders in the Wingly Dragon Campaign War. With a remake it's obvious so much they could improve upon to truly make it better. A better translation, consistent & improved voice acting, updated graphics, better stat balancing for characters like Rose, give Shana & Miranda actual cool additions & not have the exact same stats,(seriously it never made sense why Miranda was as weak as Shana especially since she was a trained warrior unlike Shana prior her joining), different weapons designs visually, bigger inventory capacity, easier inventory sorting management.

Awesome video! I really enjoy how you show little clips and moments from the game as they completely give me that "Oh yeah! I forgot about that!" moment. Those are the little things that make me want to replay a game.

Guardian's Crusade is one of my favorite games of all time. This was while I played Brave Fencer Musashi as well. I was a happy kid with those two.

babe, wake up...

I love anytime someone recognizes how cool the menu theme is for Legend of Dragoon

Hell yea! Awesome topic. Keep up the awesome grind gents! 🤙🏼

I still have to play Lost Odissey before I die.

Since you didn't mention it in the video Lost Odyssey can be played via backwards compatibility on any Xbox back to the original VCR Xbone and is available to buy digitally and for pretty cheap too. I bought it at release and recently replayed it this way and it works great since it gets some additional graphical filtering and faster loading times.

Lost Odyssey is one of the most underrated games of all time. Since it was an exclusive on the Xbox 360 and most RPGs were on the PS3 at the time next to nobody played it. Really hoping for a remaster or remake some day.

Great vid as always my man. Thanks for being there with great videos in my times of need :) !

Thank you for saying FF XIII was ok. I really enjoyed them. My son had just been born when I got my ps3 and the man trying to save his son in the first title resonated with me.

Great video homie! Keep it up!

The fellas are back! Love seeing Thousand Arms on here... so forgotten. And of course Xenogears!!! I'd throw Vagrant Story on there, if you include it as a JRPG.

Another great video bro, I know these probably take a while to make, hope you've been well! Have a good weekend bro

Props for giving some love to Crystalis and Secret of Evermore!

In the same line of Rogue Galaxy, I wish that White Knight Chronicles had a chance to evolve, but this time written by someone who knows what they're doing, and a more player-friendly droprate....

Hell yeah, a Captain Harlock shoutout

I see xenogears I like

Xenogears and Skies are good picks. I would like a good Soul Hackers 2.

Another great video. I couldn't even think of any games that would qualify for this list that you didn't cover aside from the Saturn rpg's, and even they had Japanese sequels or were a part of Japanese franchises. Albert Odyssey and Dragon Force specifically.

Legend of Dragoon = instant upvote

Vagrant story i would put in here too. A sequel to FF7 could be cool too. And FFT.

what a great friday. thanks!

Xenogear-Xenosaga series spun off into Xeno Blade.

"Everybody was Kung fu Fighting to Starfox Music" - What I'm gathering about Xenogears' Battle System

The dungeon theme from Guardian's Crusade, and "Tender People" from Ys II. The music choices in this video are so on point.

When you hit the mic! 😂 It's not a traditional JRPG, exactly, but Azure Dreams had a fairly robust for the time dating element, and also could've used a sequel. Great work as always!

I vaguely remember playing Thousand Arms and Xenogears back in the day and they didn't click for me. I was probably just too young, but they would be ripe for a remake at this point to bring fans in to those games.

I clicked because lost odyssey. I can't shut up about this game even now, but barely anyone knows it. It's almost as forgotten as Phantom Dust.

Awesome list!! Love most of these games, specially Xenogears (my fav of all time)

I love your videos. I would like to see a Child of light sequel. It was such a fun and interesting game. I always recommend it to people looking shorter game that still packs a punch.

Would love to see more from the Lunar universe

It’s CRIMINAL that we don’t have a Lost Odyssey sequel. Hell I just wish they would re-release it again . One of the best JRPG stories out there and the true Final Fantasy 13! As a side note every time I hear even one note from a song on the Xenogears soundtrack I get immediate chills. Best soundtrack of all time and not even close for me.

Great video as always. Noticed other comments saying this but before we get a sequel, Xenogears needs a proper release more attuned to the original vision first.

the intro is dope as hell dudes

I was always a big fan of Legend of Legaia on the PS1 a sequel would’ve been really cool to see!

Crystalis was an amazing game! We definitely need a new version of a game like that. You also gotta give credit to a game that came out in 1990 that predicted the end of the world in 1997.

I’m in the same boat, brother. Wondering what the other five Xenogears games could’ve and should’ve been keep me up at nights too. Shit I think about the real 6 episodes of Xenosaga. I would love to go to the reality in our multiverse where the six Xenogears games actually came out

Rogue Galaxy was one of my favorite games. It really needed a focus on the story, though, and some continuity checkers. It's like they forgot Jupis's name pretty much after introducing him, and the skill tree for Jaster has a dual tech for him and Kisala that references their romance, which isn't explored AT ALL in the game. We need a director's cut to explore some content that I feel had to have been cut out. And the whole idea of the intergalactic war isn't touched on at all. Just "hey, my desert planet is basically enslaved by our galactic government because we can mine supplies they need to support our armies against another galaxy, and oops we made it to the capitol planet and our general wants to start peace talks so our government is good guys now." Definitely want a sequel with a whole new cast that takes place centuries later. Maybe bring back the robot, just to have the link to the first one.

another good topic!

Can it even be a Level 5 RPG if it isn't too ambitious and trying to do too much?

I'd love to see another Radiata Stories myself.

Panzeer Dragoon and Skies of Arcadia.

I still remember being shocked at just how bad the localization of Wild Arms 2 was. Those segments where the lizard super villain would show up were just straight gibberish. I finished the game, but it was rough. I wonder if it ever got a fan patch?

Thanks for the upload, bros.

I know it wasn't very popular, but a complete revamp of Evolution Wars would have been cool - Xenosaga deserved better imo, but i am horrible at JRPGS for some reason so those are the only two i can think of LOL great vid!

You make the best rpg videos!

I'm still waiting for someone to at least make a spiritual sequel of Radiata Stories. Preferably with the same level of banger ost.

14:28 im playing xenogears for the first time and i love it alot. man it deserves a sequel so badly.

9:13 this jam tho

Robotrek was one RPG I loved growing up and would have liked another title

I’ve seen all from 1980-Now I have every NTSC-U and NTSC-J console as well as tons of games what a life of gaming every game you named here is good and well deserves a sequel I enjoy RPGs I have every Super Nintendo/Super Famicom PS1 and PS2 RPGs all the memories throughout the decades

Really did enjoy Xenogears, did play the original and as download on PS3, such a good game. Although a very similar yet even more forgotten game that needed to be this list is MS: Saga A New Dawn for PS2. As that game not only introduced quite heavy mech customization in a JRPG, it actually had the Gundam license to use official mecha as well. Would so like either of these games to get a sequel, but the current modern gaming industry would very likely ruin them for very obvious reasons.

Can you imagine a sequel or prequel to xenogears with the same complexity and deepness? It would be surreal

The legend of dragoon: i was there when it released and it got a big publicity campain announcing it as Sony´s Final Fantasy. They bet on visuals and FMV to sell the game but it didnt work. Lost odyssey: still waintig for it to be released from xbox. Good writting and music. All this talk of sequels makes me think: 1-the importance of reiteration: lighting in a bottel comes once in lifetime. the rest of the time we need to try, leran and improve and try again. 2- the gaming business become increasingly more risk averse and that is the reason many games and good ideas dont get a second chance. 3-that leads us to the importance of crowd funding as a tool for us to make things happen.

I agree with many of these

I haven't played a lot of games on this list. But I agree with the ones I have played. Legend of Dragoon 2 where they fix the issues would've been amazing. Xenogears needs a remake with the second disc the same as the first. Secret of evermore definitely had an amazing premise but you're right was not executed fantastically. Would've played a sequel though. Skies of Arcadia is super fun and I can't believe we haven't gotten another.. Who Even owns the rights?

I'll settle for a remaster of Lost Odyssey on Steam. A sequel would be nice, but I just want to replay it and with 360 emulation being what it is, it's going to take a while before that happens.

SNK considered a Crystalis sequel for the Neo-Geo but ultimately decided against it as it would've been a huge contrast to their "true arcade experience at home," strategy.

More like 8 RPGs I’m glad never got sequels because their image never got tarnished by a lackluster sequel.

i'm still waiting for steamboat chronicles 2

i think the battle system of xenogears would have been a better implement than the timing based battle system of legend of dragoon.

new Gaming Broductions video. Stopped everything I was doing to watch.

Aren’t Xenosaga and Xenoblade the successors of Xenogears though. I mean the protagonist of the Xenoblade 3 expansion was a blatant reference to Fei from Xenogears. I know they are different stories entirely. So I get wanting a sequel to that particular story.

This is probably an unpopular opinion: I wish "Beyond The Beyond" got a sequel. The game ended on kind of a cliffhanger that looked like it was going to be resolved in a sequel

I'm a Xenogears superfan as well but I genuinely wouldn't want it to have a sequel. I just don't like it when stories which feel conclusive in a self-contained manner get add-ons for no reason. Now, as conclusive as Xenogears feels by the end of its run, I can't deny the final "XENOGEARS Episode V The End". The thing is, I don't see how you make Episodes II to IV in a fashion which fits well with Episode V without completely reframing it to accommodate the recurrence present until that episode. You'd also be taking the focus away from Fei's dissociative identity disorder, which I can't help but see as a terrible idea. I'm not confident the plot can stand on the other Contacts' and Antitypes' two feet the way Fei and Elly fly on their shared wings in Episode V. That being said, Xenosaga managed to keep me hooked with Shion outside the spotlight for long stretches of Episodes I and II. Speaking of, when it comes to Episode I, Xenosaga's intergalactic odyssey sort of fits the bill. Furthermore, I'd rather have it as a spiritual successor than insist on shoehorning everything into the Xenogears universe, it allows them to play around with more ideas. Finally, the end of Xenoblade 2 is the only reasonable way to even imply a Xeno Episode VI. For the aforementioned reasons, it is my belief that Xenogears can and has very well done without a sequel, thanks in part to the merits of Xenosaga (which is the Xeno series I would've liked to see more of, it's a shame they had to cram so much stuff into Episode III and couldn't pace everything as initially planned, because I wholeheartedly believe in Takahashi's and Soraya Saga's vision) and Xenoblade 2, but mostly as a result of how paradoxically well-realised it was for its creators' overambitious conception. But, who knows? I would have probably said the same thing about the original Mother back in the day and I would've missed out on what's possibly my favourite game of all time in Mother 3.

I somehow miss Last Remnant on the list, a game with great potentials, which could have evolved into something great, if it ever had a sequel.

You could put Xenogears on every list you make and you would be justified for doing so lol

Dragon valor is one id say could sue a remake or sequel. I juat got it and been playing it and its awesome. Oh and i jave to mention Xenosaga and Tales of the Abyss as games that need remakes, remasters or sequels

Another banger menu screen theme is FFXV.

SNK recently made KOFXV right?

Come on sega, REMAKE SKIES OF ARCADIA

A true sequel to final fantasy tactics would be great too lol

Legend of dragoon is one of the first games I can remember playing. Unfortunately, its hard for me as well to enjoy it as much as I did. For me, its almost entirely because of the translation. I went to school for japanese, and reading the dialouge in LoD honestly doesnt even feel like english to me because of how directly it was translated. A translation mod or something would go a long way in making it better imo

Rogue Galaxy and the crafting i was like lets do it, combine anything everything etc. make everything but after like i dont know the first 15 or 20 i gave up i mean i did get to the best gear that u can craft, or i think its the best, by just playing around combining and it worked every of my character that i played with had their weapon the best one and armor etc. i was ok with it and the end was easy enough and sure i agree with the towns etc to have monsters and encounters be a burden, tedious etc. just to get to that shop or whatever. I mean i did what u just said AOE clearing skills and moved on, it was just a pain to deal with especially in the later phases of the story and the game, u just wanted to enjoy the setting and story not just fighting randomly encountered goons and agree a sequel could iron out some of if not all of the annoyances

Getting that sweet ff9 remake soon

Radiant historia doesn't need a remake or sequel.

This channel needs way more subscribers, well done, quality content here, thank you. God bless. Jesus loves you!

Nah! They would just mess it up if sequels were made today.

How about Radiata Stories

I think you forgot to add "but will never get sequels". 😊

Or a remake!!!

seriously...WHAT DO WE HAVE TO DO TO AT LEAST GET SKIES OF ARCADIA TO RE-RELEASE!? 🤣

It's a bit of a nitpick, but anyone saying Crystalis is one of the best NES games in general is totally full of it. It's cool, but.... One of the best overall? Not a chance.

I couldn't get anywhere in Legend of Dragoon, I'm bad at the timing, and couldn't use anything but the most basic combos, and even then I couldn't pull them off half the time on a bad day. I doubt anyone could do a sequel or remake of this combat style I could enjoy Rogue Galaxy got annoying to me, when I found out you should just spam your best AOE attack. Then later, a fight that turned 1 vs 1 with the dogman I believe, I got brutalized in the blink of an eye. Put it down an never looked back. I think they would have to rebuild the combat design for me. I always wished we got a Xenogears anime rather than a game. I feel like rather than a sequel, we need the team that has proven in the right scenario, they can make great finished games, need to be given the chance to properly remake Xenogears "Thousand Arms might not be for everyone," yeah, especially SJWs, you'd never see it fly today unless it was nothing but anti cis hetero normative relationships

Please Squenix. Sell xenogears ip to monolith or pay them to remake it.
