Monster Hunter stories 2 is really good btw. Thought I should mention that. I don't like jrpgs, or RPGs in general really. Especially where there's any kind of slow paced, turn based battles, and ESPECIALLY if there are random encounters. I think it's for this reason it took me so long to complete any of the pokemon games until swoosh. And even then I never bothered getting the dlc, I felt just... Done with it?
But because of a combination of a genuinely engaging storyline, character customisation, fun, simple yet tactical battles, and the ability to CHOOSE when you get into fights, as well as anti frustration features like speeding up battles, or being able to auto win battles where the foes are significantly lower level than you, makes it not only far more tolerable, but actually fun to play... Plus the game has a very charming and fun sense of humour which has gotten genuine full laughs out of me
So yeah. Mhs2. Amazingly good game. Take notes RPG genre
