The Most Underrated RPGs

Final Fantasy has defined the role-playing game genre. However it's shadow has a tendency to overshadow many other fine RPGs.

What great RPGs are severely underrated in your opinion?

I vote Suikoden, Shadow Hearts and Dragon Warrior.

Shadow Hearts and Secret of Mana

final fantasy (except 8)

wait...underrated means best? or worse?

underrated means it wasn't very popular and wasn't given the credit it deserves

Radiata Knights.

Baten Kaitos. (Although I'm gladly announce that they're making a second one that's coming out soon so maybe it's not as underrated as I think it is. I loved the game anyway so.)

is it comprehensible.....

I really enjoyed Skies of Arcadia.

Until I got fed up with random battles.

oh...well in that case final fantasy 8, legend of legaia, legaia 2, ...yeah

FF9.....

Grandia II, Legend of Legia, Super Mario RPG.

Breathe of Fire 4

Terranigma, Golden Sun & Super Mario RPG.

Shadow Hearts; the entire series is brililliant.

Koudelka, because that was a great game and I think I may be the only person in the universe to think so.

Lufia, because Rise of the Sinstrals was great, and the series deserved something better then this.

Suikoden definitey, maybe part 2 moreso than the first though. I also think Shining Force 1 and 2 from Sega Genesis were underrated.

Any entry of the Tales Of series, no contest.

Spoony if you visit the GS/GS:TLA boards on GameFAQs, you'll see those kids will vouage for this game into a suicide pact of neccesary, and no one DARES underestimate Super Mario RPG. 😛
