It amazes me how Final Fantasy 7 got my sister to play a video game when I was a kid. What also amazed me was how easily she seemed to be able to play it. FF 7 is my favorite JRPG. But I honestly think Suikoden 2 is Better. Then again Final Fantasy 10 has voice acting and the graphics hold up nicely to modern standards.
Lots of girls seem to like FF9 but I can't get into it.

male or female , Which of these do you think is the best starting place for a JRPG beginner?

Probably FF 10. The graphics on those older games, particularly on the PS1, don't hold up well and that would turn people off from the get-go.

My favorite of those is Suikoden II, though.

Isn't FFX the most linear and straightforward game out of those?

The voice acting for X was horrible though. It ruined the game for me.

9 is the best game. I've never heard that it "attracts more girls than guys". If anything, FFX should attract for girls

Yup, you're basically on a train track the entire game

I don't like suikoden 2, didn't find the story compelling.

I feel that ff7 has just the right amount of handholding and breaks, it has the most simple combat as well - attack until you need to heal, heal, then attack again.

FF7 has the common format (Standard of 3 party members from a cast of 7 to 8 characters). It's also easy but some wild enemies can be a challenge.

Skip them all and get a good classic Square game like Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy VI.

I'm replaying the steam release of both those games. The iOS ff6 port I have no issues with but there are all kinds of slowdown issues and weirdness going on with the assets in Chrono trigger. CT is of course playable but it is still sad to see that such a universally loved game was slopped out like that on PC.

Came here to say this. But hot damn, I miss pre-rendered backgrounds, they're so vibrant and full of detail.

I need to finish Suikoden II.
At this point though I may have to restart. It's been at least 6 months since I last played.

Anyways, I voted FFIX. But really, any of them you could easily get into.

I love pre rendered backgrounds. I collect ps1 rpgs that have pre rendered backgrounds.
I just spent like 140 canadian on Shadow Hearts 1 and 2 Because Shadow Hearts 1 is the only ps2 jrpg I could find with pre rendered backgrounds. I wish that more people would use them. It's cool that Pillars of eternity 2 has them , that game looks beautiful

I voted for VII. I think both VII and X are both pretty easy. I think VII is the better starting JRPG rather than X, though. I don't remember IX much. And I've never played Suikoden. And I think I've only heard of it pretty recently... maybe...
