Secret of Mana, Earthbound, Super Mario RPG, Paper Mario, Pokemon, Lost Odyssey. I don't play RPGs that much. These aren't in any order.

I would normally agree, except the term 'RPG' is extremely loose in the world of video games, and dungeon crawlers tend to be RPG in nature. Moreso than a typical JRPG where I can't even create a character. Dungeon crawlers are born from true pen and paper RPGs.

Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga and Mega Man Legends.

I'm not an RPG guy, so those (so far) are the closest I'll ever be to an RPG title. They're that good.

Diablo IS an RPG. Dungeon Crawler is a type of RPG.

5 Illusion of Gaia
4 Ys IV: Mask of the Sun
3 Secret of Mana

I'll try to list 10:

1. Chrono Trigger
2. Kingdom Hearts
3. Final Fantasy V
4. Tales of Vesperia
5. Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey
6. Etrian Odyssey IV
7. Ys Seven
8. Xenoblade Chronicles
9. Solatorobo

Soooo close, but I just can't think of another game I'd consider top material. I've played a lot of RPGs, but few can compare to these.

Oh ya, the Mario and Luigi games. I didn't play Inside Story, but I enjoyed the other 2. Chrono Trigger was ok, I suppose.

Persona 4 and Final Fantasy IX are my two absolute favorite RPGs, but there are a whole crapload of games vying for third-place in my heart:

Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride
Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the King
Final Fantasy IV
Final Fantasy VI
Final Fantasy VII
Final Fantasy XII
Radiant Historia
Mother 3
Grandia II
Suikoden III
Suikoden V
Chrono Trigger
Chrono Cross
Paper Mario
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan
Tales of Symphonia
Tales of the Abyss
Persona 3
Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow/FireRed/LeafGreen
Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal/HeartGold/SoulSilver
Pokemon Black/White
Xenoblade Chronicles
Cthulhu Saves the World

And I'll also include Kingdom Hearts, Terraria and Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love, even though I don't feel like they necessarily fit into just a single genre.

I'll try to avoid listing two games in the same franchise (although I'll split up the various Mario RPG series).

  • Kingdom Hearts (Got me to actively look into the genre more)
  • Super Mario RPG (First RPG I played. Didn't beat until years later)
  • Tales of the Abyss (3DS version rekindled my love for the genre)
  • Final Fantasy X (First real "epic" I've played)
  • Pokémon Gold/Silver (my childhood)
  • Paper Mario (first RPG I beat)
  • Chaos Rings (legitimatized mobile gaming for me)
  • Crimson Shroud (very unique)

I wouldn't necessarily say these are the best of the best, but they are the ones that really resonated with me, and left a lasting mark.

I haven't played a ton of RPGs but I really enjoyed these:
Pokémon main series (particularly Red/Blue and Gold/Silver because of childhood nostalgia)
Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
