  • Today, I'm eager to delve into a specific Turn-Based RPG genre that offers tactical combat and a significant strategic element. Each year, a plethora of titles are released, providing this captivating experience. The options are plentiful from classic Tactical RPGs to games with a stronger emphasis on storytelling.
    Tactical Turn-Based RPGs have been a beloved genre for decades, offering players a unique blend of strategy, story, and roleplaying. Usually, they are associated with the glorious classic Final Fantasy Tactics.
    Let's examine the best tactical turn-based RPGs of the last two years, including some 2023 releases you should play. Starting from 2020 up to May 2023. Just a premise before starting. In this article, you will not find games that emphasize the Strategy Layers' such as Warhammer Chaos Gate - Daemonhunters, Songs of Conquest, or the freshly released Age of Wonders 4. There are many of them so I will dedicate a list soon. Let's start with the top 20 tactical RPGs of the last two years on PC and Consoles.

    Nice to see Troubleshooters get mentioned. It is one of the best turn based tactical rpg I have played with a story and character depth that greatly suprised me. The english localisation is remarkably good for a game made by a korean indie team.

    I recommend TroubleShooter to everyone. Its amazing game, easily the best in terms of bang for your buck title I ever bought. Great characters and story, amazing character customization, hundreds of hours... I have 250hours already on steam just after starting first dlc (after finishing base game) but still I have ton of stuff to do from base game and dlcs. I think I'll easily squeeze 80-100hours more. Super underrated game. Not many people know about it which is a shame (game could really use better marketing) and from what I know, they are working on thr sequel in Unreal Engine 5 :D

    I absolutely love Dungeon of Naheulbeuk and I started Troubleshooter recently and it has been my new addiction. I wish there were more games just like these two. I personally don't need a ton of party members or crazy character creation options. Give me a compelling storyline and enough turns and twists that Idk what to expect (with a good combat system) and I'll be fine.
    I recommend these two for sure. I put about 90 hrs into Naheulbeuk (I actually beat it and then beat it again immediately afterwards (the first time I have ever done that for a RPG). Troubleshooter I am around 25 hrs atm. But it looks like it will go over 200 at this rate.

    I recently saw your video about "Symphony of War". At first I was not convinced, but then I ended up falling in love. It is a good example of how great things can be done with few resources. It is incredible and addictive. So thank you very much for showing it. 🥰
    And "Showgunners" has been quite a surprise. Although it was short-lived (or I played very intensely) I have enjoyed it a lot, both the exploration and the combat. 👏
    Without detracting any game, and waiting to try "Midnight suns" and "Wartales", I'll stay with "King Arthur". His tactic combats, history, unit/resource management and duration are on another level. 😍 I miss "Disciples: Liberation" on your list. I think that game has been a bit underrated 😔

    • @przemysek2511
      @przemysek2511 Рік тому +3

      Yeah i had same esperancie with Symphony at fits meh another game made in RPG Maker then id try it out and yeah game is super good, for me the part with building ur own units/squads was what sold me i love o play around with the set up even if it mean just a bit more hp/dmg or one more person to fit in the squad. Beat a mission great now to have fun with squad management for almost 30min (time sure fly when ur having fun)

    • @TurnBasedLovers

    Such a great vod... so many great games but i have to say it as much as i love some tittles in there like Symphony, Eidolons or Triangle... the troubleshooter takes the cake for me (i do have 1200+ h in it and im not even close to the real pros in that game) still love the 2D graphic in some of the titles the 2d games still can be mature and not candy games as some may say Triangle did make stop and think about the bigger picture way to many times and Symphony (are we the bad guys moments hahaha). Yet again great work.

    Solid list. I have to say though, that I personaly didn't like Wildermyth, altough I've seen it listed on some top lists. The estetics are great for about 5 minutes. The stories are mediocre at best, and the legacy system is a joke. Characters that cross multiple stories have no recollection of previous events, like they never happened. Story sequences get repeated over and over again with the same exact dialog over multiple stories. I wonder if ppl that praise the game actually played it. On a positive note, Symphony of War was a great surprise. Had an absolute blast with it. And hope that it gets a sequel

    Great list. Beat most everything on it that's available on console and can confirm they're all mostly great in one form or another. A little surprised Diofield Chronicles didn't make it but that doesnt really detract from the overall list. Never played Showgunners though. Looks interesting will see if it's on console or runs on my steamdeck.

    • @armchairtheorist
      @armchairtheorist Рік тому +2

    A great list to see all the recent games, shame that there's still quite a few that hasn't found their way to consoles (Playstation).
    Some feedback: The video footage changes to the next game too early, in my opinion, as you are still talking about the previous one. I'd hope you show the game you are talking about and then change to the next one, perhaps with few seconds of only gameplay, then continue narrating!

Apart from that it was a fantastic video and I agree with just about all you said. I'm most looking forward to May 26th for the Ice Palace dlc for Solasta as it will finalise the Crown of the Magister campaign. I think Solasta is my favourite game overall.

    Midnight Suns is a game that really should have sold better - absolutely amazing game and fun to play. Easily my favorite game for 2023 and the hours I've played it bear that out. I would not agree that the story was 'forgettable' - it gets better as you go. I will admit the start is almost juvenile. I do think it was overpriced - $100 for the Legendary edition is ridiculous. It should have been closer to what I paid on sale, $60.
