Good Underrated Games

[DarkDesertFox]

The pokemon mystery dungeon games, with the exception of gates to Infiniti. Most underrated series ever, I've replayed it countless times and the story is one of the most genius things in a video game I have ever played through.

Man I miss Mystery Dungeon. I'm so mad at myself for selling it.

Supposedly it's nothing like the other Square Enix games, but I haven't played many of their games (I couldn't get through the Kingdom Hearts game I bought once upon a time...) so I can't say so myself. But it's certainly a unique game, and it's got a wonderful plot (that might jerk a few tears at some points). I do recommend giving it a chance, I recommend it to like, everyone though so, oops.

Kirby's epic yarn

Kirby in general is underrated which is a shame because kirby games are one of the few remaining good platformers these days :/

I think The Last Hope came out for PS3 as well? Or something something International... all I know is it was a Star Ocean title and I've been staring it down every time I have to pick something up on Amazon...

I've been meaning to play Skies of Arcadia forever though! I've heard such great things about it and having Vyse and Aika (and I think the field medics were SoA characters as well iirc?) in Valkyria Chronicles only made me more interested in the game. I had a GC copy but I lost my receipt and found out it was busted, go figure. Guess I could go the emulator route...?

Yeah, I think its also out on PS3, I wasn`t sure about it.

Skies of Arcadia is still a great game, no matter how you look at it. The random battles can get on your nerves after a while, but the story is good, the locations are awesome and just the entire atmosphere is really engrossing. If you can get your hands on a emulator copy of the game, I certainly would recommend it!

a kappa's trail!!
got it for sale from club nintendo and it's such a cute game.
(if anything, idk if it's underrated but it seems to be just really unknown about, same style as mother 3 also made by brownie brown.)

Phantasy Star Online. One of the few games that should really get a remake/remaster.

Is that underrated? Thought it was pretty in the spotlight now because SEGA is failing so hard/gave up bringing the 2nd/Nova to the west and noone else seem to be able to.

Talking about the first PSO. Feels like a lot of people missed out on that one.

Really I think it's more overrated. It is good but the camera on the GCN is just horrid and some of the graphics mess up the game. I do like it though.

 

[Cardbored]

The camera I can deal with, especially since I played Monster Hunter and works almost the same. As for the graphics, that was released over 10 years ago, so I don't make a huge fuss about it. Maybe at the time it was overrated but I feel like a lot of people have never heard of it if I brought it up in convo.

Just grabbed one of those Atelier games for PS3, as well as Etrian Odyssey: Millenium Girl (is that what it's called? the case is like, right behind me but I'm too lazy to turn around and look lmao)

I see all the Atelier games consistently getting great reviews from the fans, but I never hear them talked about anywhere else. I love ingame crafting and the character designs are so cute that I couldn't help it and finally just went ahead and picked one up.

Never heard much about Etrian Odyssey either, except for one friend who used to love it and recommended it whole-heartedly. That was years ago so I'm late to the party, but excited to give it a shot and see what she was talking about.
