Are there any good action RPGs? The only one I've really played is Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time.


Anybody have some suggestions? Thanks in advance.

You can try FF:CC Ring of Fates, Soma Bringer(plus Translation Patch), Phantasy Star 0, Avalon Code, Lunar Knights, and Kingdom Heats 358/2 Days.
There are more, but these are the best.

Happy gaming

There's Rings of Fate, which is similar to Echoes of Time, but it's not nearly as good.

There's Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, but it's pretty average. Incredibly repetitive and has the same downfalls the KH already has.

M&L: Bowser's Inside Story isn't exactly a hack and slash ARPG, but it keeps you in the action during the turns (using timing-based commands). It's also one of the best overall games for the system.

There's a few Tales games out there, but they're all in Japanese. There's a full translation of Tales of Innocence (right?) that's almost done, and should be released by my guesses around late this year.

Oh yeah, and there's Soma Bringer which is pretty good. Use the translation patch, though, since the game is like 99% translated.

You should also try The World Ends With You. It's super fun and addictive.

Summon Knight on DS is rather old, but it was really fun. I would recommend it if you can find a copy.

PS0 FTW

I have been playing for a few days now and it's hard enough to make you go URGH but addictive enough to keep you motivated to upgrade that +23 gun of yours

Children of Mana, From The Abyss, Summon Night Twin Age, Element Hunters, Kaiju Busters, many others. Most of them suck hard.

They're technically ARPG/platforming hybrids. You do combat in real time, hacking and slashing through monsters, while gaining levels and becoming more powerful as you progress. As for the games, I've played them and think they're fun, but I always seem to put it down eventually and never pick it up again.

You're welcome.
You should also try Dungeon Explorer: Warrior of Ancient Arts if you're into Diablo.
