I'm getting tired of all of the middle ages crap. Are there any more RPGs that take place in modern times? All I can think of is Earthbound and FFVII.

Pokemon
Shin Megami Tensei
Persona
If you like jrpgs, look at FF8 and Arachronox
>The one other person on earth who's played anachronox.
My Black person
>Arachronox
goyslop
frick off, you and your embarrassing Japanese shit is the goyslop here
not fricking Anachronox you masturbator
Wild ARMs 2/3/4/5
>Wild Arms
>the modern age
honestly only 4 qualifies as that imo.
2 and 3 are thoroughly 1800s, 5 is in a weird nonsense dimension that changes every town.
Oh yeah, Shadow Hearts and Koudelka are 1900s.
2 is set right about after the equivalent of WWII
>1800s
>modern
anon, I...
Yes, actually. Anything post-renaissance is modern.
I think Slayheim is meant to be the Russian Revolution with nukes/Angel Weapons. WA4 follows this up being set in a post-cold war setting.
>Anything post-renaissance is modern
Wrong again, anon. Anything pre-ww1 is old af and by definition, not modern.
Wrong, historians define the post-renaissance as "early modern." If you're talking about literature/art movements, you are correct, though.
War on an industrial scale forever changed our society and outlook for the worse, nukes and the internet only exacerbated our modern anxieties/alienation. I'd say the World Wars are a damn good cutoff point for what I consider to be the "modern era" that we live in.
Stfu sanctimonious brainwashed homosexuals, historians are morons who don't even understand the significant societal changes brought along by the industrial revolution ALONE. Historians want you to believe the enlightenment era was more important than it actually was when it was just another footnote of a decadent empire in the grand scheme of things.
You're an ignorant Black person.
We're talking about games, anything after a single repetition rifle is modern
>af
Opinion discarded
Laplace no Ma
the recent live a live remake has modern and near future settings
That's not just the remake moron
i dont care
Yeah because you're a homosexual.
Tokyo Xanadu
Digimon Cyber Sleuth
Inazuma Eleven series
Shin megami tensei games generally take place around the time they where made, though depending on the game it doesnt stick with an urban setting for long
Parasite Eve is lots of fun
As others have said, SMT, though it depends on the game (I and III are post-apoc, II is futuristic and kinda Cyberpunk) and the related subseries tend to be as well (the devil summoner series is largely urban, Persona although the later games utilize more fantastical settings for the dungeons)
Falcom probably has some series that takes place in settings close to modern times.
If you don't mind quirkiness, the Mario RPGs tend to have more 'contemporary' settings, particularly Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door.
There's also options for games with more futuristic settings like the Star Ocean or Phantasy Star games.
SaGa Frontier has a really cool mix of settings, and from the looks of it the new SaGa Emerald Beyond will have something similar too.
Sad we never got to see Elysium Residential Disk.
Is that Bespin?
Sadly missed.
Is that the sky tower thing from Foundation? They made that way to big in the series. The cable was like a million billion miles long.
It's just forced perspective, my guy. The cable is much thinner then that when you see it collapse to the ground later on.
If you think that's bad, this proves indeed that artists for sci fi have no sense of scale. Then again, Trantor is supposed to be about the size of Titan.
Dyson Sphere when?
Never, but here, have some shitty image from one of the Saudi princes and his movie that will never get made.
bloodlines
The world ends with you. Great music.
VTMB is the best one
Metal max series are post apocalyptic.
4 TL NEVER EVER
FRICK YOU DISCORD TROONS I KNOW YOU'RE IN HERE
JUST DROP THE INCOMPLETE PATCH
We're working on it, keep your breasts up.
Mega man battle network. Internet is a dungeon.
Phantasy star is Sci-fi fantasy.
These games, if you can handle hardcore strategic RPGs, not casual press-A-to-win shite like Reddit Trigger.
Oh boy FIFA 2018
Only a moron would call lnazuma Eleven "Hardcore strategic RPG", especially the Go series
Trails
Valkyria Chronicles
Sakura Wars
Phantasy star 1,2 and 4
Shin megami tensei (Persona is for homosexuals)
Xenogears
>modern RPG
>lists Phantasy Star
I don't think you got the point of this thread
The OP said FF VII.
If the OP don't gives a shit, why should i?
The World Ends With You
Neo The World Ends With You
G.O.D for SNES (fan translation)
Sailor Moon Another Story for SNES (fan translation)
Some levels in the Kingdom Hearts franchise
Nier Replicant's intro then it becomes post apocalyptic
Digimon World 1, 2, 3, DS games, new games etc
Megaman Battle Network 1 to 6
Omori (Switch)
Contact (DS)
Any stone age rpgs?
Prehistory chapter in Live A Live
Wizardry: Stones of Arnhem
Me want unga bunga sex cavewife
Breed cavewife many moons, make many young
Alpha Protocol and it's without any supernatural elements as well.
7.62 High Calibre
The Nameless Mod
Planet Alcatraz
Tokyo Xanadu
Real world modern setting
Tokyo Xanadu
Digimon Cyber Sleuth
Persona
Fantasy world modern or near-modern setting
Trails
FF7
FF8
FF15
Don't listen to the morons saying mainstream SMT, those are all post-apocalyptic or isekai settings
Trails is weird, because the tech explosion goes so fricking fast if you’re actually following the in-game years. Sky feels insanely different from anything recent
Liberl is just a backwater shithole compared to the rest of the world, like some european village with no internet. Tita already had a satellite laser in the first comic.
>like some european village with no internet
More like the Earth Kindom aka: Qing Dynasty China with the serial numbers hastily filed off in ATLA, but yeah that works too.
Sci-fi settings
Infinite Space
Megaman Battle Network
Megaman Star Force
Shadowrun
Xenosaga
Xenoblade X
Resonance of Fate
You might want to check out Star Ocean but those are a bit different, they're Star Trek age spacefaring sci-fi settings but typically start with the characters stranded on pre-spaceflight generic middle ages fantasy setting planets. Most of them take you off the fantasy setting planets and put you in real sci-fi settings later on though.
Fallout.
Uh many Jrpgs
>Megman battle network is near future
(it was sci-fi in the 00's, but many of things in the games have come to fruition since then)
>arc the lad
was modern in the 90's
>FF7 remake
>Mario and Luigi RPGS technically
>thousand arms technically
>world ends with you
Thee are many more I am not thinking of.
check out Kotor 1 and 2
>Are there any more RPGs that take place in modern times?
I would rather kill myself then be forced to deal with another game with Black folk and women that boss around men.
Your taste for the sequels may vary but the first Persona is top tier classic JRPG.
Unfortunately there is no way to really play it. The Atlus North American version has the best music and characterization, but it is missing a major side quest that is arguably the best part of the game itself (not to mention if you don't emulate it's super rare). The PSP remake butchers the music and characters but includes the side quest (as well as reverting all the characters back to their bland soulless Jap designs).
You can patch the PSP version to have most of the PS1 tracks
soulless Jap designs
>these japanese anime game set in a japanese anime high school has japanese anime students
>le horror
>bring out the blackwash!
>Burger can't stop worshipping the BBC
Color me surprised!
>color
Obsessed, yet you use American English. Curious!
Using this thread to rant about EB
>game starts out as solo RPG and balance is crap without the Mr. Baseball cap
>will randomly lose party members due to mobs getting critical hits
>lots of enemies exist for no reason but to cast some annoying status effect which they will rush turn 1
>which is even worse when you barely have inventory room for heals
>homesickness is annoying
>battles are extremely luck based, the AI randomly hits like a truck and there is nothing you can do unless you grind to avoid that
I don't know if it's tongue in cheek but this game's combat is just unpleasant. I go back from time to time wondering maybe I'll like it now but nope. Still sucks
There are dozens, zoomer.
The real question is where are all the Japanese-themed RPGs? Elves in kimono and samurai dwarved and praying at pagoda towers and shit
Hourai High - aeon genesis fan translation. It’s pretty good and funny and square stole the class thing of ff5 from it.
