Any other short and sweet RPGs like pic related? Can be turn-based, action, whatever.
>>
>>12268934
I dont know how long Parasite Eve is so I dont know what you consider short. For turn based games Luna the Silver star is like 20 hours and for action RPGs the Brandish games are around 15-20 hours. I consider RPGs that a complete under 25 hours to be short.

dragon quest, it's like 12 hours, 15 if you go crazy grinding to max level

Dragon Quest 7

I've played DQ 1 and 2 already, nes versions.
>>12268947
PE took me about 9 hours on my first playthrough (not counting NG+). Haven't played the ones you mentioned yet but I'd say anything 20 hours or less.

But seriously, fuck the crystler building

Whoever included this super-boring dungeon needs to be fucking hanged. I suspect it was a big "Fuck you" to completionists on purpose.

Silver for Dreamcast
Hybrid Heaven N64

>>12268934
Ys 1 is pretty short. Ys 2 is longer but still pretty short.

Deserved, completionists live in a prison of their own making.

>hurr durr if you enjoy a game enough to 100% it, you're a weird nerd. ICK!
You're the reason that Breath of the Wild has literal collectible shit. It would be funny if it was legal to kill you.

I've beaten PE many many times, and do a run every Christmas week. I've only bothered doing the Chrysler building twice, even though the bossfights and the ending are really cool. The dungeon itself feels like a means of torture.
I guess since it's such a short game, they wanted to give the player an opportunity to really make use of their ultra powerful late game gear by making it the dungeon really long, but having the floors be essentially mazes was a ludicrous decision.
>>
>>12269028
it wouldnt be so bad if you didnt have to slog through 70 fucking floors to get to the actually difficult enemies and bosses.
>>
>>12269182
It would have been acceptable if the main path to the next floor was signified by arrows or making it look a certain color. That way all the other rooms would still be accessible, but not necessary. If you want to get it over with fast, you could this way.

But making everything look almost identical, causing you to get lost over and over again or tediously make a map is fucking insanity.

Vandal Hearts is a pretty short srpg with near to none customization so its very mission based.
Valkyrie Profile is a short game. While it has several endings you can do the ending B path which honestly felt like just right until I found out there was some cryptic requirements. Just play normally without a guide.
Growlanser 2 also has several paths but the normal canon path is very straightforward and relatively short.

Koudelka. Play Koudelka you damn fool

>chrysler building contains the true ending
>chrysler building's availability is very early into NG+
>you can beat it without having to do the rest of the normal game
does that mean the rest of the story doesn't matter?

A non-canon alternate ending, because Aya still has mitochondria powers in the sequel.

Parasite Eve 2

Robotrek
>>
>>12269935
The decent ending is more in line with the game being a sequel to the book, pe2 just disregarded both it and the book.
>>
>>12269176
Nobody is forcing you to collect every shit-seed beyond their occasional use.
>>
>>12269937
>Parasite Eve 2
Trash. I pretend it was never made just like the third one.

Is good?

Do you like Robopon and pre-ATB FF?

Fucking fair

Good job OP
>>
>>12270056
It's better than the first one unless you hate puzzles and exploration.
>>
>>12269176
You obviously didn't enjoy 100%ing the game. So it's OCD on your behalf as a completionist rather than actual enjoyment of the game to 100% it.

>>12270503
I don't 100% games that make it a chore, and I never rate those games higher than an 8. Imagine going out of your way to shit on the most passionate players. All modern devs are spiritually jewish/mentally female.

Nah man. PE2 is amazing, probably only behind RE2 as the best survival horror on PS1. It's not fair to compare to 1 because they're completely different games, different genres
>>
>>12270056
PE2 is the best PS1 horror game!
