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.

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]

* = unfinished and most likely unlikely to ever finish, although a few of these I'd like to get back to some time, yet feel confident enough in commenting on anyway.

[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]

6/10 - This is about where the average falls for "games I could stand to finish". Competent and enjoyable. Being a 6/10 isn't an insult, and could very well still fall under "Djinn-bait".

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.

3/10 - Not the worst thing available, but this is where a lot my "I like this franchise usually but this game is really flawed" goes.

Digimon Story Sun/Moon (NDS)
Digimon World (PSX)
Final Fantasy 13-3 Lightning Returns (PS3)

2/10 - Bad games, but somehow I played them. Some of them are offensive but the gameplay was fine so it kept them out of the lower tiers.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced (GBA)
Legend of Heroes 3 White Witch (PSP) *
Phantasy Star 3 (GBA) *

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.

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]

* = 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.

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.

7/10 - Good. Theoretically, this level and below a game has either none or very few outstanding areas. We are yet to reach games with any substantial problem problems.

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

1/10 - Atrocious. These games will theoretically turn most people off regardless of whether they've have a good reason to play them or not. They have extremely low redeeming value.

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.

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.

[VySaika]

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.
