- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Pretty much any jrpg for Gameboy, DS, PSP and PS2 (haven't tried many newer). I loved them a lot as a kid/teen but now when I try to play them do I get bored very quickly... I think the audience is supposed to be kids and teens so I am not surprised I don't enjoy them anymore
I get you. I've been going through a lot of "best of" lists for various consoles and it's tough going back and playing them because they were obviously made for a younger audience and and having never played them as a kid I don't really feel the same pull.
The Kirby games are a big one. I've seen a lot of recommendations but can't really get into them.
I recently replayed Legend of Dragoon, and I'd do it again.
I tried to play Golden Sun again though, and it just has WAY too much dialogue. And not in a good way. Just lots of filler dialogue that doesn't add depth; it just restates the story and what's currently going on.
VOLCANO!
That's where an emulator comes in handy, there's a ton of text to fast forward through in golden sun.
I'm playing a Steam release of an old PC JRPG (Trails in the Sky) and it has the best feature ever...
A turbo button that doesn't affect the sound of the game. Dialogue plays, music plays at the normal rate, no pitch shifting... it's glorious.
I'd pay for any emulator that could support something like that for every game.
