I rarely play JRPGs these days but I played a ton back then. Listing ones I haven't seen mentioned yet:
SNES
Lufia 2
Breath of Fire 2 (find a retranslation patch)
PS1
Suikoden 2
Saga Frontier
Star Ocean 2
Breath of Fire 3 & 4
Grandia
Valkyrie Profile
Lunar
Xenogears
Koudelka (didn't play this one but I had a friend that loved it)
If you like tactical RPGs, Front Mission 3 and Vandal Hearts.
Koudelka is a masterpiece just because there's nothing else quite like it. It's an attempt at making a survival horror RPG.
Parasite Eve maybe, that's also in the same vein. God I love these games
My copy of BoF2 is the USA version so I think it's already a translation? I don't know if I ever actually booted it up so I need to check that out.
The PS1 titles are hitting me right in the nostalgia so I need to grab those and redo my .m3u files for my PS1 folder.
There's an official translation, but it is notoriously bad and possibly the worst on the SNES. It's a great game tho so it's worth patching with a fan translation
I think I'll need to dust off my patching chops. There is an online tool for patching that I used a while back that I think I have saved somewhere.
This will save you some time. It's an archive of all known English translations for many if not most major systems, already patched and ready to go.
Dang lol wish I would have seen this comment like 10 mins ago before I manually patched BoF2 lol! I'm saving this archive tho because this is awesome. Thanks!
Just gonna throw out that if you like SaGa Frontier, and also like more traditional fantasy settings (vs the weird modern-scifi-urban fantasy gonzo kitchen sink of SF1) then SaGa Frontier 2 is, in my opinion, an even better game.
I grabbed both :)
Hell yeah
