OP said Genesis, not Sega CD

>/mu/ is so dead you're more likely to see a Weird Paul thread on /vr/
Absolutely grim.

Just play the SNES instead. Sega consoles are so bad for rpgs is not even funny.

A lot of people dont give it a chance as it is one of the later SSI golbox RPGs. It is unapologetically a D&D space campaign and a lot of fun once you get your spaceship.

>>12774274
Get a haircut dude

You realise that most people that enter and engage this thread are ones that like mega drive / genesis? Why are you here if you don't like the console?
>>
>>12775472
I didn't think it was a thing until I ate enough carrots
>>
>>12775495
It's a great game and definitely a nice change of pace from JRPGs. It's too bad more of the Gold Box games didn't get console ports including Matrix Cubed,the BR sequel

If you don't play Phantasy Star 4, Shining Force 2, and Lunar 1&2 (unworked hack recommended)
You're not a real rpg fan. And that's all there is to it.
Though the PS1 version of lunar 1&2 is better, that still leaves phantasy Star 4 and shining force 2 as mandatory classics.

Honorable mentions:
After Armageddon, Aisle Lord, Arslan Senki, Cosmic Fantasy, Dark Wizard, Langrisser 1&2, Phantasy Star 2, Pier Solar, Shining Force 1 & CD, Shining in the Darkness [Antigrinding Hack], Vay [Unworked], Vixen 357, Legend of Wukong

Not sure, haven't played: Secret of the winds (recent homebrew), Surgimg Aura (just got translated)

>>12774894
I want a specific comfy vibe I can't get from SNES. Something about the genesis controller and the sound font.

>pretending that this dudes content isnt literally tailored to /vr/ and he does some music on the side

>Shining in the Darkness [Antigrinding Hack]
Its a 20 hour game on original hardware, why the fuck do modern players "fix" games? It is fine as it is out the of he box.
>>
Final fantasy,oh....

>not a typical rpg
its literally based on a /tg/ RPG.
>>
>>12774294
>>Starflight
Endurium bugs makes it ass to beat. landing your ship uses up too much fuel. shooting your weapons uses up a ridiculous amt of fuel. that said it's best to avoid all battles in SF1 , unlike SF2.

then again the original EGA game was buggy and tedious to play too.
>>
>>12774274
oxymoronic thread
the geneshits barely had any good games, let alone any good RPGs
