Top 25 Japanese based rpg

10. Dark Souls

That's not an rpg and certainly not a jRPG.

and Lufia 2 is best

It's like if someone asked an AI bot to compile the most try-hard list of elitist meme games. I refuse to believe anyone puts Dragon Quarter on a top anything list. Even people who like that game admit it sucks.

I am confused by people listing ffx? The exploration sucks and the combat is too easy without any difficulty hacks, which don't exist. Plus, unskippable cutscenes kill replayability.
Am i missing something?

It is simultaneously shit and great. Miscellaneous gameplay (Blitzball is kinda cool), sphere grid gets interesting late game, the music is of course great, combat system isn't bad and relatively fast, though stupidly easy as others mentioned and often overrated...game is decline but still better than a lot of JRPG, as most are trash.
You also criticise the exploration/linearity and while that is one of the game's biggest downfalls, it has just slightly enough engaging level design to not be completely irredeemable. It's linear but throws various puzzles at you, occasional side rooms, hidden interactions and so forth.

That said, there are a lot of votes for this declined game over certain other FF (5/6/7/8/9) and that is just astonishingly retarded.
