Great looking and characterful RPG that allows you to choose either an active or turn based combat system and has a really strong premise that's ambitious and epic in scale. A classic adventure that's a must for fans of the genre.

Another great RPG with an epic story spanning thousands of years - a ton of endings for a diverse cast of characters and fantastic gameplay that still holds up to this day. If you're a fan of the genre, it's worth tracking down.

A Great RPG Different Than Final Fantasy

I didn't play this one until college, and I'm glad I finally got around to it. The idea of a RPG based on what happens from one time period to the next was great. They did a good job of not making it confusing, which can easily be done with time travel type games/movies. No random encounters, you see enemies on the world and can avoid them if you like. There are several different types of enemies and you can plus games, too so there's solid replay value.
