The true villain of [JRPGs] is thinking FFTA is a good game
Shadow Hearts 2 features a creepy old man and his doll
a gay vampire wrestler
DOGGY
and lost Russian princess Anastasia Romanov
So of course you fight Rasputin.
But if you want to talk about some newer Jurps, like some dumb fuckboy carpool party, go ahead. I'll be over here with the Spin Ring 10 doing sick DPS with my butterfly dracula luchadore.
he finds weapon upgrades in mini events that involve him admiring something that is definitely not a weapon(mail boxes, giant tuna) and taking it with him
"wait. this is a nice mail box"
"huh?"
joachim pulls it out of the ground and carries it with him
"aren't you supposed to be a hero? that's stealing"
"nevermind that"
If you can't get your hands on Shadow Hearts Covenant, you have to find an LP because the game is in the perfect zone of off the rails but not so much it feels too dumb/weird to play.

Shadow Hearts 2 is the best Jurp of all time.
I never even played the original.
Great battle system.
Great story.
Great characters.
And the female lead ends up being YOUR MOM, WHICH IS BOTH HILARIOUS AND SUPER-AWKWARD WHEN THEY FIND OUT.
Best Jurp Shadow Hearts 2. We don't need anymore Jurps guys. Just remake this game over and over.
Blind Judgment Ring ALL DAY. I remember powering up the earth form late in the game and discovering that I really liked its powers, which annoyed me that I hadn't chosen it earlier.
I don't want to start things off with controversial discussion (wait, or do I?), but I found Shadow Hearts 2 to have one of the worst representations of a primary female character.
"Oh well, I can't score with Yuri so I guess I'll go fuck his dad".
"Hey, so I know you need a change of clothes, but all we could find was extra hand-me-downs from the doll that clearly will not fit you properly. That cool?"
You could probably argue that it was made to be as intentionally parodic as the rest of the game, but it sure didn't feel that way to me.
I missed basically all of the last thread except for the last page and I just had to chime in here to agree that Agnes was the most annoying character ever.
Obtuse to the point of inducing rage for the entire game, and her voice actor is the only one I've ever found irritating enough to selectively skip through one character's dialogue while listening to all of the rest.
Seriously, that voice. Even remembering it now, as I type this post, makes me shudder.

Oh well, I'll save it for later.
Now, tell me more about gay vampire wrestlers...
This is clearly a personal life mistake
Just give me all the gay stuff
What's the best you got
you unlock new abilities for him through the Man Festival wrestling tournament
Does he get a suplex?
one of his regular attack animations is him suplexing his weapon
his weapon is
whatever he finds

That I can find at work? This is a good place to start.

Also I love the combat in the game.

I think I've played this Shadow Hearts thing
Shadow Hearts 3 was a disappointment.
Because I'll take any opportunity to talk about Dragon's Dogma that I can....
i would say that dragon's dogma is a jurp/action game
it's riiiiight on the jurp cusp though

Was it one of you guys?
What if I throw in the j-rock intro music, that's like bonus points right?

I believe it was @Ashcroft
Buried in Midway's grave.
Wait is this true
Did no one bother getting the rights to Shadow Hearts?
Mannnnnnnnn
Apparently they belong to Aruze, the Japanese publisher
which is a pachinko company.

I mean the game wasn't super scary or anything but there were quite a few unsettling parts to it.
Mother 3 hasn't got a lot of gay stuff so to speak
But it does have the only genderqueer party member I can think of off the top of my head
They're great and worth tracking down some PS2 copies, since apparently an HD collection is not in the cards!
I've been in the mood for some PS2 RPGs lately, namely Shadow Hearts, Xenosaga and the Dark Cloud games
I will always hope for Dark Cloud 3
