World of JRPGs

Definitely Trails Beyond the Horizon and Ys X: Proud Nordics. I'm not a "must play day 1" fan for Ys like I am with Trails, so it was pretty easy to wait for the new version considering how quickly they announced it after it finally came out in English. I also just started the Dragon Quest III remake in Japanese and already am having a good time with it. Plan to continue nibbling at that for a while.

The currently announced games in the genre are honestly kinda lean for me. Leanest in recent memory. The only ones I know for sure I'll play are the last of the FF7 remake and the Persona 4 remake, and if I remember right they already said P4R isn't coming out this year. So that means I might try catching up a little bit on some other series. I've got the following on my playlist:

• Atelier Escha & Logy
• Breath of Fire IV
• NEO The World Ends With You
• Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven
• Rune Factory 5
• Tenchi wo Kurau 2
• Yakuza 0 (probably will jump straight to LAD7 from there)

game i want to play for sure in the first few months

• Chained Echoes
• Fantasian Neo Dimension
• Final Fantasy Tactics

as every year i play 1-2 Trails games, thought about the remake of the sky series, but i guess i rather go into daybreak first, so i don't have to wait.

For new games i'm only exited for the new Fire Emblem game and maybe Lost Hellden

First of all, I plan on clearing my backlog:

• Octopath 2
• Nioh 2
• 13 Sentinels
• P5 Tactica

Besides that, I have a few things on my mind:

• Hundred Line Defense
• Final Fantasy Tactics A2
• Xenosaga 1-3 (or maybe the rumored remake?)
• FF 7
• Persona 4
• Dragon Quest 1-3 Remakes

Probably already too many RPGs for a single year.

I don't plan that far ahead, but planning to start Ys IX soon, and resume FF XIV. Other than those, also plan to play:

• Super Mario RPG
• The World Ends with You: Final Remix
• FF XII: The Zodiac Age

Let's see what else comes up.

My daughter still does not allow much playtime. I want to replay the first two Trails of Cold Steel games before diving into parts 3 and 4.. and I guess that will be my project for the year lol. Ah yeah and finally Chained Echoes.
