This game has an interesting episodic structure, so the structure lends itself well to people who have a regimented schedule. How motivated you are defines how strong you are in combat. This is because combat strength is based on emotional strength. Sakura Wars loosely qualifies as a JRPG as there's not much a sense of progression when it comes to combat strength. Of course, you can't talk about romance in JRPGs and not mention Sakura Wars, Sakura Wars 5 specifically. Things get pretty interesting around the end because of this. In this story, you can't choose heroines, so the romance actually matters to the core narrative. They clash on multiple occasions but there's always respect for one another at the core of it. The main heroine is a plucky go getter with a lot of resolve and desire to see the conflict ended. The protagonist is a kind man that values life and sees the weight of military action.

Not to mention the gameplay and music is TOP NOTCH.Īnother game where I really liked the romance was Valkyria Chronicles. You get very attached to the characters because you don't just see them struggle through the problems in the main narrative, but you also help them struggle through the emotional ramifications of the events that happen in the main narrative.įantastic romance, with fantastic buildup. You have to go and find a source of light to get around, and that search means the heroine has to confront her fear of letting people in emotionally. The only people who benefit from having any light are other people, but Cloche locked up the sun somewhere. Cloche can walk and see just fine without any light though. When you go into her mental scape, it's very dark. One of the barriers on one of the main heroines Cloche is that she doesn't really trust anyone. The mechanics of the game is that you dive into their mental scape, and help them overcome their psychological barriers so they're able to craft powerful song magic. I only dislike a few.Īr Tonelico 2's heroines have a lot going on with them, and are interesting because of this. Most of the Surge concerto romances are good though. romance is quite subjective, but my favorite romance is Ar Tonelico 2.
