Even though I still have TONS of games to discover, I have to say so far it has to be Bravely Default.
I only started to play this in 2021 and it was my first-ever so-called JRPG.
I absolutely adore this game. Stunning graphics, especially the scenery and in my opinion totally worth playing it with the full 3D experience.
Great writing with snappy humor, the character development is great and for me the story was really enjoyable as it unfolded.
The twist at the end was something that really blew me away though.
Spoiler:
The full title of the game is called Bravely Default - Where The Fairy Flies, however near the end of the game, you discover the fairy guardian, called Airy, that has been on your side the whole time is actually the bad guy. After beating the game with the true ending, the game shows the title screen ''Bravely Default - Where the Fairy Flies'' but some letters fade out untill it says ''Bravely Default - Airy Lies. I thought that was an incredible cool easter egg/detail.
If you have a 3DS, even if you're not into JRPGS, you really should give this one a go.
This has some very interesting features such as the ability to descrease or increase random encounters (great to travel fast or to grind some extra XP if you keep getting whiped out).
9.5 out of 10 for me
