Message: [QUOTE="Sinmenon, post: 201654, member: 3614"] My literal first thought is to go to the Koudelka and Shadow Hearts rabbit hole [B]Koudelka (PSx)[/B] is a mix between JRPG and Survival Horror. The developers travelled to UK to take pictures for the textures and inspiration, record the walking sounds, and even bought an absurd amount of books for research back in the 90s when there wasn't so much information readily available online. There is this Romani girl named Koudelka whose powers attract her to a mysterious monastery in Wales. In there, she meets an adventurer guy named Edward who was about to be killed by a monster, and a priest named James. The place is littered with evil spirits and all sorts of dangers. [B]Shadow Hearts (PS2)[/B] is closer to a traditional JRPG. The graphics might look a bit underwhelming (it was released one week before Final Fantasy X), but apparently it started as a PSx game. You start with this dude named Yuri, who is a rude prick who sneaked into a train because a voice in his head said it would be interesting. In the train, there was this girl named Alice who was kidnapped by some people and was being transported to the East when a mysterious gentleman wearing a top hat summoned a mini-demon and started killing everyone and wanted the girl. It was when Yuri decided to kidnap her instead and then they go on their own adventure. Oh, and Yuri can turn into monsters after absorbing evil spirits. [B]Shadow Hearts Covenant (PS2)[/B] is the sequel to the previous game and it picks up a few months after it ends. Yuri is...well, at a crossroads in his life, and then he gets cursed. If he fails to deal with the curse, his very soul will die. We also see some old familiar faces from the previous game. [B]Shadow Hearts From the New World (PS2)[/B] has a far more colorful and upbeat visual, and a seemly unrelated story. Johnny Garland is a kid with a self-entitled detective agency and he is hired to check a disappearance and everything goes south. [/QUOTE]
