The Western Version of Final Fantasy IV!
I have played many games in the past that are RPGs, but I must say that this one deserves the almost infinite amount of praise it gets. Hardly any other game on GOG has as many five-star reviews as this one, and I'm definitely going to tell you why. This is a game that has a huge world to explore, and there is quite an immersive plot with a very unique font with old English, and you get to actually know characters in the game, and the roles that they play better than a lot of WRPGs out there. The story progression rivals JRPGs, which is a first for me, since I have played through and beat many JRPGs over the years. Don't get me wrong, I love Oblivion, Fallout 3 and 4, and Skyrim, but this game feels as close to a JRPG as it gets with Western elements. Just like with JRPGs, you will NEED a walkthrough for this bad boy as you are not exactly told what to do and where to go. The interactive map on the internet is your best friend. The magic carpet is also an incredible method of transportation that reminds of airships in FFIV. 26 years later, this is still a very fun game to play, although it does heavily rely on the mouse as dragging and dropping stuff was the norm in the early 90's. You will definitely benefit using Exult for this game; you can adjust the difficulty, and you can get much smoother framerates than its DOS counterpart. This is the first time I am comparing a WRPG to one of the most hailed JRPGs of all time, because of the similarities, along with the unique characteristics that occupy Western RPGs. You have the storytelling of JRPGs, and the gameplay mechanics of a WRPG. This is the best of both worlds, I highly recommend this if you haven't played it yet!
