One of my first JRPG's ever (if you don't count like Pokémon and stuff I guess), and I fell in love immediately. This game has my favorite setting in anything I've played, and a story that had me hooked the whole time dying to know what was going to happen next. This is the game that got me hooked on story focused games.

Balthier best girlie

Strictly talking ARR here, oh my god this story was a snooze fest. Gameplay is absolutely fire though and this is the best MMO ever, super addicting once you get sucked in!
