RPG Ratings

[Talaysen]

Added Super Robot Wars Original Generation Gaiden at an 8.  I guess it fits for now.
Added Dragon Quest IV (DS) starred at a 6.  I guess.
Added Dragon Quest V starred at a 4.
Added Dragon Quest Monsters Joker at a low 7.

[Rob the Stampede]

Annnnnd repost.

10/10: The ten best RPGs ever made, IN ORDER.
Final Fantasy VI
Fallout
Fallout 2
EarthBound
Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden: Chapter 1 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa
Shadow Hearts: Covenant
Wild Arms 4
Star Ocean: Till the End of Time
Front Mission
Tales of Symphonia

9/10: Great, but I could fix one thing about it.
World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King
Mass Effect 2
Tales of Phantasia
Final Fantasy IV
Suikoden III
Vampire- the Masquerade: Bloodlines
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Tales of Vesperia
Suikoden V
Star Ocean: The Second Story (Now if this game had an Ashton mode instead of a Rena mode, I'd have given it a ten. Rena mode's no fun. You never have any clue whatsoever what's going on.)
Xenosaga: Jenseits von Gut und Bose
Skies of Arcadia (and SoA Legends)
Wild Arms (and Alter Code: F)
Fallout 3

8/10: Quality games with one significant shortcoming
Front Mission 4
Final Fantasy Tactics
Mass Effect
Xenogears
Xenosaga: Dur Wille Zur Macht
Seiken Densetsu 3
Planescape: Torment
Shadow Hearts
Shadow Hearts: From the New World
Breath of Fire V
Knights of the Old Republic
Knights of the Old Republic II
X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse
Marvel Ultimate Alliance (a better game than XML2 with less GAMBIT!!! in it gets the same rating.)
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2
Wild Arms 3
Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura
Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind
Mother 3

7/10: I like these games. They are quite fun. That's as far as I can go. They may have a major issue, or simply a lack of depth. Or they're just really, really short (I'm looking at YOU, Star Ocean).
Final Fantasy IX
Suikoden
Front Mission 3
Radiata Stories
Star Ocean
Final Fantasy
Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga
Super Mario RPG
Chrono Trigger (I loved this game for a while and thought it was SO great, but then I loaned it to my now-ex-girlfriend and she said, upon giving it back "why don't any of the characters change?" And then I realized, nobody does.)
X-Men Legends
Xenosaga: Also Sprach Zarathustra

6/10: Kind of a mixed bag, but I don't find playing them to be a waste of time.
EarthBound 0
On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness
Illusion of Gaia
Secret of Mana
Phantasy Star IV
Harvest Moon
Fire Emblem
Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
Wild Arms 5
Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion
Breath of Fire IV

5/10: Average, uninspired, or hamstrung with some hideously bad issues.
Robotrek
Sword of Mana
Suikoden II
Tales of Legendia
Castlevania: Lament of Innocence
Wild Arms 2
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
Final Fantasy XII

4/10: Primarily games that crap all over their predecessors.
Final Fantasy V
Fallout: Tactics (If FFT counts, so does this. And it's bad. Unfortunately, still not the worst thing associated with Fallout. Sigh.)
Suikoden IV
La Pucelle Tactics
Persona 3

3/10: I finished these when I was younger and had more time and less money, but now that the inverse is true, I don't touch them.
Final Fantasy X
Chrono Cross
Breath of Fire
Breath of Fire II
Breath of Fire III

2/10: These games can suck it. I have not finished most of them (except SoE).
Final Fantasy XI
Final Fantasy II
Secret of Evermore (Alchemy system was an interesting idea, which gives it one point. Inclusion of a bazooka? +1 point. No points for anything else.)
Arc the Lad: End of Darkness
Dragon Quest VIII

1/10: Failure not just on an execution level, but there is something CONCEPTUALLY wrong with the game's design.
Final Fantasy VIII
Final Fantasy VII
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles
Final Fantasy X-2
Final Fantasy Mystic Quest
Kingdom Hearts
Valkyrie Profile
Koudelka
Dragon Ball Z: Legend of the Super Saiya-Jin
All those other DBZ RPGs, for good measure (there's like four on the NES and three on the GBA?)
Unlimited SaGa
Quest 64
Diablo
Diablo II
Final Fantasy XIII


Some number that's so low you need a counting expert to count it/10:
Diablo II as played on Battle.net

[CompmanJX3]

Copy and Paste of old list with one addition:

Added Tales of Eternia at 6 out of 10.  Didn't annoy me very often (impressive for any RPG, even some of my favorites), didn't impress me.... ever.  Mediocrity at it's finest.  Slightly above average score due to lack of annoyances.

10/10 (Awesome.)
Final Fantasy 10
Grandia
Shadow Hearts: Covenant
Skies of Arcadia: Legends

9/10 (Not quite as awesome.)
Chrono Trigger (Chronicles)
Suikoden
Disgaea: Hour of Darkness
Tales of Symphonia
Growlanser 2

8/10 (Slightly less awesome.)
Wild Arms 3*
Final Fantasy Tactics
Growlanser 3
Star Ocean 2
Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
Brigandine

7/10 (Almost Awesome.)
Final Fantasy XII
Final Fantasy 1 (DoS)
Final Fantasy 7 (PC)
Final Fantasy V (Anthology)
Final Fantasy VI (Anthology)
Fire Emblem 7
Earthbound
Wild Arms 2
Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete

6/10 (Hints at awesome.)
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
Final Fantasy IX
Tales of Eternia (ToDII)
Threads of Fate
Arc the Lad
Pokemon Red/Blue
Dark Cloud 2*

5/10 (Definitively average.)
Wild ARMs
Xenogears
Shining Force 2
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance

4/10 (Mostly failed at being awesome.)
Phantasy Star IV*
Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure
Final Fantasy IV (Chronicles)

3/10 (Few if any redeeming qualities.)
Final Fantasy Legend II*
Tactics Ogre: Knight of Lodis*
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

2/10 (These games have no right to fail as much as they do.)
Arc the Lad 2*
Chrono Cross*

[Meeplelard]

Ok, swapped the order of my 10/10s a bit.  No, I don't rate in any order...other than alphabetical.  Which is to say, Final Fantasy should come before Fire Emblem by that logic <_< >_>

Added MMBN2 at 6/10.
Added Paladin's Quest at 2/10
Added Secret of Evermore at 6/10

MMBN2 was a game I finished recently, PQ and SoE are games I neglected to rate before somehow.

[superaielman]

Grim Grimoire added at 8/10.

[Nitori]

Added Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time at 6/10~

[Talaysen]

Added Mario & Luigi 2: Partners in Time at an 8.  For now.  It's on the low end so I might drop it later.

[Talaysen]

Added Tactics Ogre: Knights of Lodis at a 3.  Wasn't quite annoying enough to make a 2, I think, but kind of close.  Might drop it later.
Added Tales of the World: Narikiri Dungeon 3 at a 4.  Not bad for what it is, but still Tales gameplay.  Also, needs more TotA characters.
Added Rogue Galaxy at a 1, starred.  Not quite bad enough for a 0.  Yet.  I heard it gets worse, so it may lower when I get back to playing it.

[SnowFire]

There are unfinished games I haven't ranked here becasue I might theoretically return to them.  Any stars on this list means it's unlikely I'll ever bother (Terranigma's the only half-decent one, and I screwed up my save-state by saving inside the stupid Spanish castle with the bosses I can't damage and I can't leave to buy a better weapon.  Blargh.)  ? = DNR if nobody else is ranking it, as usual.

10 - Amazingly awesome, personal favorite.

Septerra Core *

3 - The first odd prime, generally awesome number.

2 - Not really playable.
Diablo *
Dragon Quest (NES)
Dragon Quest 2 (NES)
Tactics Ogre *

1 - BURN ON SIGHT.

(There are games that should go here, but I suppose I shouldn't rank Hydlide / Final Fantasy X-2 / etc. based off one minute.)

[Hunter Sopko]

Added .hack//GU Volume 3: Redemption in at 8/10.

Better than the second volume, but not quite 9/10 somehow. Love the series, love what it does/tries to do, but somehow can't rate it higher. Sad that.

Shino <3

[Nitori]

Added Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation at 7.5~

[DjinnAndTonic]

10/10 - Games with fun addictive gameplay, clever dialogue, interesting characters, and complex or original plots. These games flowed along smoothly without ever losing my interest.
Disgaea (PS2)
Tales of Phantasia (PSX, SNES)
Tales of the Abyss (PS2)
Suikoden III (PS2)
Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth (PSP)
Soul Nomad (PS2)
Star Ocean 2 (PSX)
The World Ends With You (DS)

9/10 - Lacking something in terms of gameplay, dialogue, characters, or plot. Generally good all around, but may have one or two nitpicky flaws.
Shadow Hearts 2 (PS2)
Tales of Symphonia (GC)
Suikoden V (PS2)
Makai Kingdom (PS2)
Final Fantasy 10 (PS2)
Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria (PS2)
Disgaea 2 (PS2)
Phantasy Star IV (Gen)
Suikoden II (PSX)

8/10 - Games with decent scores all around, but with one or two outstanding features to bump up the score. There's some definite personal bias here. I tend to put games that I had a great experience with here, even if the quality of the game seems lower objectively.
Wild Arms 4 (PS2)
Final Fantasy 6 (SNES, PSX)
Grandia 1 (PSX)
Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete (PSX)
Arc the Lad 2 (PSX)
Grandia II (DC)
La Pucelle Tactics (PS2)
Wild Arms 3 (PS2)
Growlanser 2: The Sense of Justice (PS2)
Skies of Arcadia (Eternal Arcadia) Legends (GC)
Fire Emblem 3: Mystery of the Emblem (SNES)

7/10 - These games are worth the time it takes to play them, with some outstanding points to offset their flaws, and generally fun to replay. A lot of these titles have some interesting original ideas or a really great translation.
Final Fantasy 9 (PSX)
Star Ocean 3 Director's Cut (PS2)
Suikoden 1 (PSX)
Shadow Hearts 3 (PS2) *
Lunar Eternal Blue Complete (PSX)
Super Mario RPG (SNES)
Growlanser 1 (PSX)
Ys 6 Ark of Napishtim (PS2)
Phantasy Star II (GBA)
SaGa Frontier (PSX) *
Jeanne D'Arc (PSP)
Skies of Arcadia (Eternal Arcadia) (DC)
Breath of Fire 4 (PSX)

6/10 - Just above average. Generally good characters or even style points keeps these games ahead of the pack. Some favoritism, especially in terms of battle system (ARPGs!) is prevalent here.
Final Fantasy 7 (PSX)
Legend of Dragoon (PSX)
Growlanser 5: Heritage of War (PS2)
Fire Emblem 9: Path of Radiance (GC)
Xenogears (PSX)
Tales of Legendia (PS2)
Wild Arms: Alter Code F (PS2) *
Star Ocean Blue Sphere (GBC)
Suikoden Tactics (Rhapsodia) (PS2) *
Threads of Fate (Dew Prism) (PSX)
Tales of Eternia (PSX, PSP)
Lufia (Estopolis) 2: Rise of the Sinistrals (SNES)
Shadow Hearts 1 (PS2)
Koudelka (PSX)
Breath of Fire 3 (PSX) *

5/10 - These games are average. On average, most games that get published have -something- good about them. These games are still great games in their own right, they just don't stand out as much. Most importantly, they're inoffensive and don't make many mistakes.
Tales of Rebirth (PS2)
Earthbound (SNES)
Chrono Trigger (SNES)
Final Fantasy Tactics (PSX)
Fire Emblem 7 Blazing Sword (GBA)
Ys 2 (NES)
Ys Eternal (PC) (yeah... it's 1&2, but it's still not better than 2)
Ar Tonelico (PS2) *
Alundra (PSX)
Star Ocean 1 (SNES)
Phantom Brave (PS2)
Tales of Destiny (PSX)
Final Fantasy 5 (PSX)
Kingdom Hearts 1 (PS2)
Xenosaga 1 (PS2)
Shining Tears (PS2)
Growlanser 3: The Duel Darkness (PS2)
Final Fantasy 3 Remake (DS)
Tales of Destiny 2j (PS2)
Golden Sun 2: The Lost Age (GBA)
Golden Sun: The Broken Seal (GBA)
Suikoden IV (PS2)

4/10 - Just below average. Nothing too offensive, but nothing really stands out. Style points help a lot of these games out.
Shining Force 1 remake (GBA) *
Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen (SNES)
Yggdra Union (GBA) *
Final Fantasy 8 (PSX)
Legend of Legaia (PSX)
Rogue Galaxy (PS2)
Final Fantasy 12 (PS2)
Wild Arms 1 (PSX)
Radiata Stories (PS2)
Riviera (GBA)
Brave Fencer Musashi (PSX)
Kingdom Hearts 2 (PS2) *
Ys 1 (NES)
Illusion fo Gaia (SNES)
Final Fantasy 10-2 (PS2)
Fire Emblem 8 (GBA) *
Fire Emblem 6 Sword of Seals (GBA) *
Fire Emblem 1 Dark Dragon & Sword of Light (NES)

3/10 - These games feel like they could have been better. They missed something vital in terms of fun factor. Not worth replaying, and probably a bit of a chore to play the first time through. Still, there was something rewarding here.
Atelier Iris 3: Grand Phantasm (PS2) *
Lufia (Estopolis) 1: The Fortress of Doom (SNES)
Final Fantasy 1 (and remakes)
Atelier: Iris- Eternal Mana 2 (PS2) *
Phantasy Star 1 (GBA)
Grandia III (PS2)
Chrono Cross (PSX)
Okage (PS2)
Final Fantasy 2 (PSX)
Atelier: Iris- Eternal Mana (PS2) *
Breath of Fire 2 (GBA) *
Thousand Arms (PSX)

2/10 - Playable. Tedious, but if you're in the mood for -exactly- the kind of experience these games offer, you could enjoy it.
Dark Cloud 2 (PS2)
Xenosaga 2 (PS2) *
Xenosaga 3 (PS2) *(both of these subject to change soon as I haven't gotten very far)
Pokemon R/B/G/Y (GB)
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles 1 (GC)
Arc the Lad 4 (PS2)
Breath of Fire 1 (GBA) *
Breath of Fire 5 (PS2) *
Eternal Sonata (360)

1/10 - These games need a lot of work to complete. Nearly unplayable. Only fans of the series tend to like these. Style points keep these games out of the zero category.
Wild Arms 2 (PSX) *
Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories (GBA)
Sailor Moon: Another Story (SNES)
Lunar Legend (GBA)
Legend of Heroes 3 White Witch (PSP) *
Phantasy Star 3 (GBA) *
Arc the Lad 1 (PSX)
Shining Force Neo (PS2) *
Dragon Warrior 3 *
Rhapsody (PSX)

0/10 - These games just aren't fun. At all. They aren't very popular, and there's a reason for that. It surprises me how many of these I've finished.
Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced (GBA)
Legend of Heroes 4 Tear of Vermillion (PSP) *
Ys III
Dark Cloud (PS2)
Granstream Saga (PSX)
Lunar 3 (DS) *
Unlimited Saga (PS2) *
Arc the Lad 5 (PS2) *
Final Fantasy 3j (NES)
Alundra 2 (PSX)
Grandia Extreme (PS2)
Beyond the Beyond (PSX) *
Arc the Lad 3 (PSX)

Completely re-worked my rankings. I feel better about them now. They are more objective without losing sight of my personal tastes either. Definitely more standardized and representative of how I judge games.

I generally avoid playing much of games that I completely hate. That's why nothing is below 4/10. Though Sword of Vermillion will certainly change that if I can force myself to play more of it.

[Twilkitri]

Added labels because it seems to be the thing to do. As a result of this I had to rearrange some things. Previously games I didn't care for took a huge hit which it's not possible to back up given a label which is supposed to indicate why they're there ;_;

* = games I haven't or didn't finish(ed)


10/10 - Perfection In Game Form. As it currently stands, complete flawlessness seems to be lacking in everything I've played.


9/10 - Awesome. The only problems these have are minor in one way or another, and they are outstanding in other areas.
Breath of Fire 4
Paper Mario 2: The Thousand Year Door
Planescape: Torment
Skies of Arcadia: Legends
Tales of Symphonia
The World Ends With You
Valkyrie Profile


8/10 - Great. These games are either outstanding in most areas and let down by non-minor problems, or very good in most areas with little problems.

2/10 - Horrible. These games will generally turn most people without a good reason to play them off.

1/10 - God-awful. These games will generally turn most people off regardless if they've got a good reason or not. These have extremely low redeeming value
Aretha (GB)
Super Robot Wars 1


0/10 - Should Not Have Been Made. These on the other hand have no redeeming values whatsoever. Nothing good can be seriously said about them, disregarding people with highly weird tastes.

[superaielman]

Disgaea 2 at 8.

[Talaysen]

Added .hack//G.U. Volume 3: Reminisce at a 9.  Pretty good stuff, though on the low end of 9, I think?

Added Seiken Densetsu 3, starred, at a 0.  It can go have epic slapfests with Dragon Warrior 2 and Magna Carta.

[Gatewalker]

Throwing this up just so Super can see what I can write for. Mostly C/P from the old boards, and a couple new things added.

[DjinnAndTonic]

Got around to playing Ogre Battle. Game suffers immensely due to time, but it was pretty revolutionary for its time.

Added Ogre Battle at 6. If this was 10 years ago, it would have been a 9.5.
