https://www.facebook.com/TheRPGFanatic I'm sure you've seen GamePro and other magazines talk about Japanese computer rpgs. Maybe even read a Wikipedia article about them? Well, they're all wrong. Watch this retro video and learn the real history of the genre.

@TheAndycoll I don't own Grandia, but maybe someday I'll do something on the Grandia series.

you must know elder scrolls: arena and daggerfall but didn't sayd a word about them. arena and daggerfall was revolusonery (skills level up over time in daggerfall arena is xp based level up with no skills.) propeply best rpg series ever that don't mean console rpg are bad. but i don't like final fantasy.
Osmodaful 1 month ago
@Osmodaful Final Fantasy II had a system for skills leveling up. That was 1988, long before Elder Scrolls. Elder Scrolls main claim to fame is that the origin of faction / reputation systems comes from Daggerfall, but was refined into it's present form by EQ's design team.
