Overall safe and very mainstream picks, but still fairly reasonable choices, even if I disagree with most if them on a personal basis.

Much better than any list /v/ would come up with, since this is a Nintendo hivemind and also filled with porn addicts, so the list would be filled with Nintendo-published stuff (ranging from mildly good like Mario RPG to mediocre like Xenoblade 2, plus the "tactical" one would obviously be a random Fire Emblem entry) and weebshit filled with hentai "humor".

The fact that you don't realize this proves you're low IQ.
The only cringe aspect of XB 2 is the fact that they call out attack names.

Nigger are you fucking serious. I can't recall a single track from that game. Should have been another W for Xenoblade.

Anything between 4 through 10.

The first 3 Final Fantasies really aren't that good.
After Final Fantasy 10, the series experiments way too much and kind of loses its spirit. The only decent post-10 Final Fantasies are 11 and 14 but both are MMOs and nothing like the previous games. 14 has the best story in the series though.

Unfortunately Final Fantasy's been hijacked by "auteur" directors who think they're too good for conventional JRPGs and constantly bend over backwards trying to prove to the world that "See, Final Fantasy isn't cringe like those anime games!"
>>
>>729522485
>"See, Final Fantasy isn't cringe like those anime games!"
i wouldn't be surprised if once square and enix merged, whoever was running the show decided that dq was for the east and final fantasy was for the west and that's how we ended up where we are.

>best action
>FF7R
>not Tales of Graces or any other Tales game
slop list
>>
>>729518576
Nier isn't an RPG. Anything other than FFVIII getting best soundtrack invalidates the entire list.
>>
I'll be honest and this might be a controversial take, but I attribute a huge part of Final Fantasy's, and Square in general's decline to the formation of Monolith Soft, who took a lot of the creatives who worked on 2D Final Fantasies, Chrono Trigger/Chrono Cross, Xenogears, and a few other 2D square games, with them.
>>
>>729520667
Correct, but it is a JRPG.
>>
>>729522807
>not Tales of Graces
Tales of Graces was the first Tales game I dropped because it was so boring. People would say the story sucks but at least it has the best combat, but it really has probably the worst combat too.
