Story:Rogue Galaxy is an action role playing game set in a futuristic fantasy universe, in which the player moves through a continuous environment with no load time between overworld exploration and battles. Battles occur as random encounters, Rogue Galaxy uses a real-time hack and slash combat system in which the player fights with a party of three characters. The player has direct control over only one character, although they can change which character that is at any time. The two NPCs fight independently of the player character, based on a strategy selected prior to the battle. Available strategies include fighting especially aggressively, targeting a specific enemy or not fighting at all. The strategy can also be changed at any time during the battle. Additionally, the player can issue specific orders to the NPCs during combat, such as having them use an item or activate one of their special abilities.Show more

All i want in life is the have this GEM in PC. This game has so much to do... So much to see. Great music, great gameplay. It's so much fun to 100% (besides the Frog Log thing...), it would take like 200 hours. But it's so worth it. The Insectron ''mini game'' itself is beyond fun.

This game is just perfect. It was my first experience with RPG gameplay in my early 10s and I was obssessed with it for years. I would play that with my sibling in our PS2 for hours and days in a row. The characters are amazing, so as their backstory, there are a lot of different things to do, there are mini games and the quarries are so much fun to complete. The planets are beautiful, each one with their own story and particularities and items and insects (there is a side quest that it's also a minigame which you can battle insects, The Insectron) to find. It's a dream coming true to have it in PC. I really love this game.

This is such a hidden gem, its bad that no much people know about this rpg, its totally worth to bring it to this era and maybe in the future get a sequel or remaster/remake 10/10.

Amazing game. Spent many hours playing it and still couldn't finish the game. The only flaw is that it has an open ending. Maybe it will receive its deserved sequel if it sells well on GOG.

This was one of the best games to have been released on the PS2. A hidden gem that flew under the radar for many people because it was one of the last games to be released on the platform and was overshadowed by the hype of the PS3. This game is a cult classic and for good reason. It is a travesty that the only way to play this game is to own a PS2, unlike many other classics to have been originally released on the platform, this never got a re-release or remake.

It’s an incredible RPG and a beautiful story that did not get much highlight currently it’s very hard to play it on any platform I have very fond memories of this game so I want others to have a chance to play it

Make this game one of the ones you slightly update, because if you could figure out a way to set up a online mode which is only for people to battle their bug collections against each other you would add the bit of polish to this gem that I think it would need to stand out all over again. Great game and I need a reason to break my strategy guide out of the bookshelf again, please!
I love this game so much! The characters, planets, even the items you can obtain, have so much history put into them. I adore the music, and keep a playlist of the soundtrack to listen to in my car driving. After discovering this game from a friend at school long ago, it has been a treasured story and pulls on every emotion throughout its extensive narrative. And after showing my wife all of the cutscenes, so she could understand what it meant to me, when we had our first child, we named him Jaster, because the main character is heroic and had values we also want to instill in him.
Those games also need your vote!
Elden Ring
Elden RingElden Ring is an action RPG developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment, released in February 2022. Directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki, with world-building contributions from novelist George R. R. Martin, the game features an expansive open world called the Lands Between. Players assume the role of a customisable character known as the Tarnished, who must explore this world, battle formidable enemies, and seek to restore the Elden Ring to become the Elden Lord. The game builds on the challenging gameplay mechanics familiar from the Dark Souls series but introduces a more open-ended structure with vast exploration, dynamic weather, and a day-night cycle. It offers deep lore, complex characters, and an interconnected world filled with secrets, dungeons, and powerful bosses.

Final Fantasy VIII
Final Fantasy VIIIFinal Fantasy VIII is the eighth main installment in the Final Fantasy series. The gameplay makes a departure from many series standards. While it still uses the Active Time Battle system, it deviates from the series' traditional means of boosting a character's power via leveling, although levels are not completely abandoned as they were in Final Fantasy II. In addition, it does not have a Magic Point-based system for spell-casting. Instead, magic is collected, drawn, and created from items, and is used to power up the characters via the junction system.
