Welcome back. This part of the series will be primarily focusing on genres. So far I have [Arcade Game, Action, Text dungeon, Sandbox, Shoot/beat 'em up, Grand Strategy, and Miscellaneous] as available genres. Let me know if I missed something, and I will try to get it added.
This is eventually all going to get compiled into one megathread for people who want gaming recommendations from Chapos specifically. Other consoles and genres will come in sporadic subsequent threads. Please contribute to previous threads if you missed them. This is meant to be an exhaustive list.
Final Fantasy Tactics is a great one. Even with the wonky translations, the story is really good, the first half especially. It helped that you could name the characters as you saw fit.
Another one that's a personal favorite is Fire Emblem (7 in Japan). I thought a lot of the story was pretty cool and a good introduction to the series.
Then there's Fire Emblem Awakening that allowed more customization. My only wish was for more inclusion of LGBT characters and people of color.
Then there's XCOM 2 where I was able to form the Bara Battalion to stop the extraterrestrial threats. The strategy learning curve was super rewarding and you got to see how well you handled situations. Getting Flawless ratings is so satisfying.
You can mod awakening and Fates to allow same sex marriage, though the quality of the new supports varies
