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.

    Tactics Ogre (LUCT or the remake, not the GBA entry which has a very mediocre story). The whole Ogre Battle franchise is pretty interesting but the other games are more RTS I think? Sucks that the series will never be properly finished. (I haven't finished the N64 one though -- my impression is that the story is worse than the Matsuno games but still fairly solid.)

    I also liked the original Front Mission a lot (enjoyed the extra content in the DS version too), but I do wonder how the politics holds up since it's been years since I played. If nothing else the music is fantastic.

    (Tactics Ogre > FFT imo.)
