Hello everyone! I really want to get into the jrpg genre but I have no idea which game would be good for a beginner. I have played persona 5 and I really enjoyed it. Any recommendations would be really appreciated!

    IMO I think that old jrpgs can be easier to acclimate to as they have less feature bloat. They can be hard sometimes but there are more fair ones. I think final fantasy V, Lufia, or Dragon Quest V are pretty good, pretty simple jrpgs. If you want more like persona 5 there are a ton of games in the persona and SMT series and most are good, but they can be more challenging.

      I’m playing Chained Echoes at the moment which is superb. Feels like a classic JRPG but with some modern elements to make it feel fresh.
