.
My name is Steve; I'm one of the creators of Nameless: the Hackers. We're a group of 2.5 guys who quit our jobs, invested our life savings and worked on a JRPG full time!
.
It's always been my dream to create a JRPG. I grew up with the classics such as Chrono Trigger, Earthbound, FF series, Phantasy Star, SoM, etc...
The story, the music, the characters; I was addicted and their influence is still apparent in my daily life.
When I got an iPhone, I was excited. Now I can play RPGs on the go without carrying another device. However, as I downloaded a few, it was very apparent that something felt missing. Though the games were ported, and working. That's what it felt like, a straight port. I realized how different the touchscreen felt compared to a controller. It turned me off immediately from furthering my adventures! And, these RPG games were also extremely expensive. 17 dollars? That is just crazy. Especially because I can barely play through it due to the controls. It was just a negative experience for me. A few games managed to do it well, such as ""The World Ends With You"", but a vast majority felt awkward. Thus, my mission was set.
.
Make a JRPG with controls designed for touch and also take the opportunity to try something completely new.
.
The game's theme is about living the life of an ""underground"" hacker for hire and all the craziness that ensues. The game features a global conspiracy in present day and has references to current technology and cyberpunk elements.
.
Here's a few reviews:

[148Apps](http://www.148apps.com/reviews/nameless-hackers-review/)
.
If you have a chance to play, please let me know what you honestly think of the game!

That's also a more serious problem with JRPGs since they're usually very long. I find myself wasting 30 hours of game progress because I don't want to continue without remembering what has happened before.
I did it with Persona 3. The first time I played it was during a vacation to another state on my cousin's PS2. I played almost half of the game in a week (fucking love this game). Eventually, I came back home and brought my save file with me.
The problem is, it took around 3 months for me to get the game for myself, and when I finally played it again I couldn't remember the story correctly! Of course, I still knew about the Dark Hour and the overall important points, but I had forgotten all the little details that make this game so great!
I couldn't do it, so I deleted my 50 hour save file and started the game again, and I'll be honest: I don't have any regrets! =D",,False,,t5_2quw1,False,,ness,True,t3_r8ve4,http://www.reddit.com/r/JRPG/comments/r8ve4/dae_restarts_the_whole_game_because_you_stayed/,

So this post began as just talking about Crimson Echoes and Flames of Eternity but blew up into every good CT ROM hack, enjoy!
For those that don't know of these, back in the mid to late 2000's there was a major Chrono Trigger fan sequel called Crimson Echoes ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrono_Trigger:_Crimson_Echoes) & [Chronopedia](http://chrono.wikia.com/wiki/Crimson_Echoes:Game) Summaries, [TV Tropes page](http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/FanFic/CrimsonEchoes)). It was highly, highly anticipated to be the penultimate fan hack that would fill everyone's desire to a more direct sequel to CT than Chrono Cross was. However Square Enix sent a [cease and desist letter](http://www.destructoid.com/square-enix-shuts-down-chrono-fan-game-crimson-echoes-131702.phtml) three weeks before the official release of the project, much to the dismay of EVERYONE. Luckily just under two years later the 98% beta build was leaked on Emu Paradise!. For a summary:
>Crimson Echoes takes place right after the events of Chrono Trigger in the year 1005 AD. It starts where Marle and Crono are discussing the big tomorrow. Marle drilling Crono's head not to sleep in. They kiss and make their way home. Crono (Still living with his mom) is yet again be force to awaken but this time by Marle.
>Crono, Marle, and Lucca attend an important meeting at Guardia Castle between the nations of Guardia and Porre. Porre has grievances of some kind and some political mumbo jumbo goes on. After a suspicious encounter with the Porrean agents, our three heroes are caught in an unstable Time Gate generated by a Time Egg replica. They all share glimpses of events across time featuring their old friends, then find themselves greeted by Robo in the year 2305, who is assisting Belthasar in his hidden facility. And so the untold story of the eternally burning flames begins...
And for those who want to watch it, here's a [Crimson Echoes Playthrough](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSTpkMB9kNk).
After CE's cancellation another fan picked up the project and produced [Flames of Eternity](http://metronomeproject.blogspot.com/), which... has proven considerably controversial. The devs of CE were more than a little pissed that someone took their work and tried to complete it, and it does diverge from the original and has some spelling/grammar errors. That being said it is very complete and really just needs some polish. If you want a look at it, it's all up on [Let's Play Flames of Eternity](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svMe2X9pAQs) on YouTube. It got to a very final build, RC7 which only had a few missing features to be added, namely:
* Expanded Mall in 2305
* More open 2305 AD Overworld Map
* This includes a 2305 AD Medina
* Being able to skip the introduction
But for what you are all really waiting for, a link to [the ips files to play the game yourself!](http://ge.tt/19yuW0k)
**NOTE:** These are NOT ROM files. You will need to get a copy of the Chrono Trigger ROM to patch and play these. For your convenience, [How to Patch a ROM File](http://fantasyanime.com/patching). As for a Chrono Trigger ROM... you'll have to find that on your own, perhaps you can rip it from your own CT SNES cartridge!
Additionally there are several other ROM hacks which are worth exploring to various degrees which I have summaries below (Note I copied these summaries from another website which I won't link to since it has the SNES and NDS CT ROMs at the top). All of these are in the link with Crimson Echoes and Flames of Eternity. But first let us take a moment to mourn the loss of another CT Project [Chrono Trigger Resurrection](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxxwZSafh3E) and [Preview](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuAkxoSFdSA).
Chrono Trigger: Prophet's Guile - YouTube [Playthrough](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HVqPqvrJVE)
> Chrono Trigger: Prophet’s Guile is another extensive hack, and by the same people behind Crimson Echoes. This follows the story of Magus’s rise to power in the Kingdom of Zeal after arriving in 12000 B.C. thanks to the distortion at his lair. In his bid to stop Lavos at the Ocean Palace, Magus must gain the trust of Queen Zeal and abolish all opposition. It’s about two regular Chrono Trigger chapters long, and full of surprises.

Chrono Trigger Retranslation
>The Chrono Trigger Retranslation gives you a chance to experience Chrono Trigger in its purity. Every single line is properly translated. Nothing is left out, its 100% uncut. Everything (items, weapons, attacks, spells, espers, etc.) have their proper name. The original challenge is retained (US release was made easier). Various bugs have been corrected. In other words, this is ""Chrono Trigger : PERFECT Edition"".
Chrono Trigger Coliseum
>This incredible hack installs a battle arena in 2300 A.D. Three ladders of monsters exist for three difficulties - easy, medium, or hard. The ladders can be ascended with either a full party or a single member from Crono's group fighting the battles; for each win, ""battle points"" are earned. These can be traded for high class items in the right of the coliseum. Cool huh? But it's important that you read the 'readme' before using it, as it explains important details.
Chrono Trigger Hard Type
>Do you think Chrono Trigger is way too easy? Well then apply the Hard Type patch! Here's a segment of the Read Me: ""Basically, CT5 is a Hardtype patch for Chrono Trigger, which means that most of the enemies' stats have been hacked to make them harder to defeat. Also, the character stats have been lowered to a degree, so when you hit certain peak levels you will not be as powerful as you would be in the original version. One more thing I did to add more of a challenge to the game is remove most equipment from the characters, so your defense will not be very high at the beginning. The tradeoff is that you get more experience from battles, so you will have the chance to get to a high level early in the game.""
Chrono Trigger Spoof #1
>This is a 'spoof patch'. Spoof patches are applied to English R0Ms as if you were applying an English patch to a Jap R0M. This patch replaces about half of the main dialogue with hilarious jokes. Important aspects of the storyline are still retained. Click [here](http://i.imgur.com/729Jgdj.gif) for some screen shots.
Chrono Trigger Spoof #2
>This spoof replaces almost all of the dialogue in the beginning of the game with hilarious perverted jokes. Click [here](http://i.imgur.com/ZRifJaW.gif) for some screen shots.

The new trailer did recycle a lot of the new features included in the first trailer but there is so much more to be excited about. The opening hangar scene, the large modern city, the sense of scale as the main character walked through the city.
I want to know what you guys think. Here is a link to the trailer for anyone that missed it:

Feel free to put multiple games per post, but separate them out. Bold the title by surrounding with \*\*
If someone has already written about a game, and you'd like to add additional information, please respond to that game's post and don't make another--duplicates will deleted (or moved to their proper place).
As games are populated in this thread, I will add them to the master list in this post (which I've seeded with a bit). I will write a few descriptions of my own as an example. **Please feel free to write up descriptions of games already mentioned in the list if they don't have a write-up yet**.

Persona 4 was a huge exception. The story kept me hooked, the monster designs were unique and the voice acting was top notch. The comedic relief in the game actually made me laugh IRL and the sound track freaked me out in a good way at the right times. To this day I think this game is #1 in my books next to Chrono Trigger.
This was probably the first game in 5 years that I've finished start to end. Many games I trail off and get bored. After it finished, I felt as if I parted ways with some good friends. Felt surreal.
Can anyone recommend any games that you feel had the same effect on you? I tried P3 but it just didn't hook me for some reason. Currently playing SMT: Devil Survivor 2 and it's pretty good, but the voice acting in P4 made me feel so much more attached to the characters.",,False,,t5_2quw1,1343194473.0,,whitemage,True,t3_x44uj,http://www.reddit.com/r/JRPG/comments/x44uj/just_finished_persona_4_i_felt_like_i_lost_my/,

1364799489.0,59,self.JRPG,1ber7z,FF XII is the epitome of the statistics portion of tabletop RPGs,81,22,59,http://www.reddit.com/r/JRPG/comments/1ber7z/ff_xii_is_the_epitome_of_the_statistics_portion/,"Skyrim is just the imaginative role playing part of those tabletops. The comparison between Skyrim and XII is this: XII is the epitome of the statistical based tabletop role playing game. The math working behind the scenes is an RPG enthusiast's wet dream, for those addicted to character customization & how your world is affected by formulas like the dice roll. The 1/2/4/8 drop rates and the like. A weapons-based customization system influenced from Vagrant Story and FFTA, I suppose Yasumi Matsuno loves this. Matsuno basically made XII how he would've liked Vagrant Story given the technology.
What XII champions in RPGs, Skyrim does the opposite: in simplifying stats, with technology finally available, Elder Scrolls re-interprets the table top RPG. Elder Scrolls and Bioware games drop you in a world and instruct you to break the rules and live in that world. XII on the other hand presents you a world filled with rules and a concrete setting like any other traditional FF, yet hidden within is a set of tools that allows a skilled, intuitive role playing fan to break those rules and bend the world to your characters' will. This in no way takes away from the depth of culture written into the game world. It is a quality game - quality at what it does, which is entirely unlike ""open-world"" and especially sandbox games. XII is a unique open-world. Mundanely described as half-opened, or to haters, half-assed open world. The story is still on rails but you can force the train off the tracks, miraculously without explodering the train cars or passengers within; again, it is one and only game where it's presentation of your character(s) in an open world doesn't detract from that world - it's wonderful atmosphere, qualities we love from FF, shine through like no other.
There are monsters in the game that will kill you in one hit if you choose to fight them. For example, the Tyrannosaurus Rex inexplicably located right outside the first town. But this is just an example of why the game is interesting. There is no way to kill the T-Rex at the start of the game. It’s a rather brilliant red herring, design-wise (not the least of all because he’s a T-Rex, a normally ferocious creature). See, the T-Rex’s life bar is displayed in green, which the instruction manual clearly tells the player means the enemy will not attack. That many players just go ahead and attack the T-Rex is indicative of their belief in common sense (a T-Rex is murderous — fight for your life)
Gambits. This is where director Hiroyuki Ito shines most — in creating straightforward game concepts that eliminate waste. Ito saw a way to get rid of the tedium of role-playing games (heal when low on HP, attack, attack, attack, get hurt, heal again, attack, attack) by implementing a simple AI programming scheme. The dead simplicity of the AI programming scheme, however, rather violently lays bare the fact that RPGs are, generally, predictable and tedious. Yet people can’t get their heads around this. With Gambits turned on (and configured with just five minutes of commonsensical thought), battles go at least TWENTY TIMES more quickly than in any other RPG. Yet players feel betrayed. They say, ""I want to press buttons."" The player merely directs his party through an area, freezing the action when he sees fit to make adjustments on the battle plan (stronger enemies appear, et cetera). This alone should be enough to qualify XII as a ""video game.""
So From this point on I will separate RPGs into those I played before FF XII and those I’ve played after.",,False,,t5_2quw1,1364905817.0,,whitemage2,True,t3_1ber7z,http://www.reddit.com/r/JRPG/comments/1ber7z/ff_xii_is_the_epitome_of_the_statistics_portion/,

Going in a direction different from the soon to be released Final Fantasy IV, This was to be an Action-RPG with the awesome “Obviously drawn by Akira Toriyama” graphics seen in Chrono Trigger. The CD-Rom Add-on was canceled, so they decided to revise the project into what is now Chrono Trigger.""

It is just that all the advertisements, promotionals, even the polish of the game itself, Midgar was the pinnacle. It had that certain feeling to it. A Cyberpunk Blade Runner (Deus Ex if you will) style feeling. It took the capital from FFVI (which was steam punk) made it a bit more cyber and modern and ran with it. The music was the best. From the feeling of an oppressive corrupt government to finding your way through the corrupt and crime filled slumps working as a resistances group. It had lots of steam, sparks, robots, computers, wires signs and kanji (Chinese characters) everywhere. It was great! There were a few towns that felt like Midgar (Junon ect) but for me it just wasn’t the same. Does anyone else feel like this?

We recommend Suikoden 1 on PSN purely because its all we have. I don't know how many times I've said, ""You can get Suikoden 1 on PSN, but Suikoden 2 is soooo much better.""
Let's get them to think, get them to see that we want more people to experience this classic. We want to share one of the greatest stories and villains in the history of video games with more people, and having Suikoden 2 on PSN will give us so much more ammunition than just the first game, as good as it is.
