Bro, I still replay Shin Megami Tensei for some reason. Every time it gets a re-translation in another console/handheld, I go back to play it and it’s enjoyable to me. Hell, right now I’m waiting until someone translates SMT again, but the one that’s on RPGMaker VX iirc. It seems to have more content added to it.
a bit late but yeah 4 is great. Rune factory 3 is also great, but it might be a bit awkward to go back to since you’re playing 4 rn. Rune factory 1 and 2 are in a weird place to me. They’re fun for a first play through but 2 in particular has that issue where the characters don’t have much character and there is a lot of repetition. Rune factory 1 especially is still worth playing through at least once even if they’re very rough compared to the later games.
