DOUBLE POSTAN!
Everyone already knows what I'm playing, but I'll post anyway just to talk about it and make conversation.
Lunar - Silver Star Story Complete (PSX)
It's awesome. Great writing, extremely fun battle system, and good pacing. Dungeons are frequent enough that there's plenty of gameplay but short enough that you never feel like you're grinding or otherwise getting bored. Not to mention it's nice and colourful with great looking 2D graphics. And the more lighthearted fantasy atmosphere is the perfect thing after Xenogears, with its dark tone, futuristic world, and convoluted plot.
Did I mention the great writing? And the battle system.
Because they're awesome.
Not to mention some random references to Western pop culture, including "The name's Bond. Ramus Bond," Nall singing the first line of the chorus to "The Wind Beneasth My Wings," and a spell that apparently involves placing a filet of pickled fish on your forehead while chanting "I Am the Walrus" by The Beatles.
In other words the game kicks the asses of most of the other JRPGs out there.
