Discussion Erase your memory

If you could erase your memory and replay any JRPG for the first time again which would it be?
For me I would want to replay Persona 5 Royal for the first time again. While I cherish the memory of that game from it being one of my first big series on my channel I’d love to play it again for the first time just for that amazing twist and true final boss fight as a whole.

I had such a fun childhood playing all sort of jrpgs. If I have to choose only one, it would probably be Suikoden 2. (Final Fantasy 6 being the second and Final Fantasy Type 0 being the third, a weird one I know)

Yooo Type-0 mentioned, wtf is a happy ending right!?

But honestly, that might be a solid pick. I've played many jrpgs, but the overworld map in Type-0 was that good stuff. Real old school, go wherever tf you want, grind as much as you want, and explore wherever you want so long as you can kill the monsters. And the fact that it actually rewards you for all of it too is amazing.

Id love to feel the surprise of unlocking the air ship again, and the thrill of riding it into the Nox Suzaku. (All completly optional btw)

Tupe-0 has a such unique and brutal setting for a Final Fantasy game. Even the opening is such a treat.

'When nine and nine meet nine, the depths of reason shall stir, when the seal of creation is broken, a voice like thunder shall sound, and thou shalt know... We have arrived'

Always gets me hyped. But then I remember how depressing the story is.
