Gaming Trend - With the release of Planescape Torment on Good Old Games recently, we thought it’d be a great time to go back and review this title for the folks who have no idea why the rest of us are excited. Planescape Torment is an RPG from the now-defunct Black Isle Studios/Interplay. It is considered by many to be one of the best RPGs ever made. With a fantastic storyline that keeps you guessing, incredible voice work, and a setting unlike any we’d ever seen before, it is easy to see why.
It’s foolish to say that one RPG is "better" than all the rest across systems and generations. This is merely the 25 RPGs we feel are the best and nothing more!
Dragon Quest 11 isn't even the best Dragon Quest game, it's a good game, but not the best. Dragon Quest 8 is superior to it in almost every way.
OK let's end this, in order

As far as jrpg, while I'm not as big a fan as I am for Western RPGs, I love Persona 3 - 5, Dragon Quest 8 and 11, Rogue Galaxy, Final Fantast 6,7, and 12; and Lost Odyssey.
