NES4EVER 07/09/23 10:46:54 PM #1:	My sons birthday is coming up this week and he loves Zelda. However im gonna try getting him introduced to turn based rpg. My initial thought based on subject matter is FFIX but open to other ideas. He has a switch and access to my ps5. ~~And hes getting Breath of the Wild.

Ivany2008 07/10/23 8:11:53 PM #15:	Pokemon Fire Red, or and hear me out here: Final Fantasy 4. I've long since been a massive advocate of FF4 and think its the best teaching turn-based rpg in existence. It's a very basic story that's easy to follow, introduces the mechanics of nearly every turn-based rpg, and to top it all off has a brilliant soundtrack. The only real questionable dialogue is the well known "You Spoony Bard", but it really shouldn't matter that much. After playing Final Fantasy 4, you'll know if they like turn-based rpgs or not. <cite>Ivany2008 posted [p:974754332] in What turn ...
