a) That’s not a remake, it’s a separate game b) Please don’t buy it, made by russian devs that have been funded by oligarchs with ties to the russian government
Not OP but you should check out VCMI project. It’s finally got a 1.x release after some decade+ of work. Fixed castle limit issues of the originally to free up modding potential and they’re making improvements to enemy AI.
Lots of good suggestions already, but what first came to my mind is Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. I’m not even into Final Fantasy and have only played a few tactical RPGs, but I fell into FFTA hard when it came out. The battle system was fun, with a little twist that there’s random laws you have to follow each fight (e.g. no attacking with staves) that can get a character arrested and taken out of the action after a warning. Nice music, cute art style, and a pretty good story as I recall.
Was my answer too. Absolutely phenomenal game. Don’t really have anything else to add to your points other than to encourage people to play it if they haven’t already. Great story, great gameplay, just an absolute classic.
Recently went back to OSRS after getting recommended a video essay about how Runescape is good that included a rant about capitalism ruining the enjoyment of labor and capitalism. It was funny enough to make me go back
Game & Watch Gallery 2: Holds a special place in my heart as the first game I ever owned. Has the best lineup out of all the collections, with 3 and 4 you can kinda tell they had used up all the heavy hitters.
Mario Tennis: An incredible tennis RPG. And Mario doesn't even show up until the postgame as a bonus boss, which I find hilarious. Has connectivity with the N64 version if you can get that running, lets you transfer your RPG mode character and unlock more content on both titles.
Panel de Pon GBC: Better known under a name of a different IP it got reskinned with, but I'm a stubborn snob who will only ever call it by the original title. It's a bit different from the console versions in order to compensate for the small screen, board is shrunk from 6x12 to 6x10, and the 1P Arcade mode is fake versus that gives opponents a health bar rather than their own board. I actually have a soft spot for this version, it's different enough to stand out and be worth enjoying on its own, even if Gamecube is still the GOAT.
GBA:
Boktai trilogy: Hideo Kojima's greatest masterpiece. First game's alright, second game is where it comes into its own. Note that you want the Solar Sensor hardware for the full experience, but emulating them is worth it over not playing them at all. And for the third game, you'd have to pick between original hardware or the translation patch anyway.
Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow: It's Castlevania. It's good. Also check out Circle of the Moon and Harmony of Dissonance, but AoS was by far the best of the GBA entries.
Golden Sun 1/2: These games were way ahead of their time for how they designed a combat system that encourages you to use all of your tools and not just click basic Attack as if you gotta hoard your MP for a rainy day. Fantastic puzzles too.
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga: If you've played any of the other Mario RPGs, this one's great too. Has a 3DS remake but I haven't played that version so I can't tell you how it compares.
Metroid: Zero Mission: The original Metroid has aged rather poorly if you ask me, but this remake does a perfect job modernizing it into one of the best games in the series. Fusion is good too, but some fans have opinions on that one.
Mother 3: Surely you have already heard of this game and do not need me to tell you to go play it. Have you not played it by now? Why not? Well, okay, if you haven't played Earthbound first, go do so, then play this.
Rhythm Tengoku: A wonderful game about pressing the A button. Sometimes you press the d-pad too. Translation patch.
Summon Night: Swordcraft Story 1/2: If you've ever played the classic 2D Tales games, these are excellent spiritual successors to those. There's a third game that's JP-only, translation patch is being worked on but it's been stuck in development hell for years...
Steam sale has got me playing “Beyond: Two Souls” and now “Detroit: Become Human”. I think Indiana Jones is next on my list. And “Turbo Overkill”, so much nostalgia!
More Windblown. I finished the game a few more times on the lowest difficulty, then moved up to the next. I have made it to the final area and boss a bunch of times, but not beat it yet.
Then, some more Disco Elysium. I’m on Day 3 now and started exploring the area that opened up. I think I’m doing things very similar to my first playthrough, but already found a few things I missed before. From my first playthrough, I remembered your partner Kim commenting on you running everywhere, so I deliberately walked everywhere on the first day. Sadly, he says the same thing and doesn’t take into account that you just walk, so now it’s back to jogging. Hope you like the workout, Kim!
Also, some World of Warcraft. Did very little this week, just some of the weekly quest to buy the last stuff I wanted. I still wanna do some event achievements, but I’m too lazy. Maybe over the holidays. There’s also been a patch, that added some new area, but I’m not even gonna bother with it.
I'm about 50 hours into Astroneer. It's pretty fun but I don't see it gripping me for another 50 hours. I'll probsbly finish the main objectives and then clear something else from my Steam backlog
Been playing mostly Our Adventurer Guild. Super fun indie strategy RPG. Pretty close to the ending I think. If you’ve got a Final Fantasy Tactics itch I recommend you check it out! The art and the dialog is kind of goofy, but don’t be fooled this is a solid game.
