Monster Hunter: World named “Best RPG Game” at 2018 Gamers’ Choice Awards!!!!

As many expected at the 2018 Game Choice Awards Monster Hunter: World which was released for the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One back in January ended up being named the “Best RPG Game” of the year. It does not come off as much of as surprise that Monster Hunter: World was named the best RPG of 2018 especially considering how much mainstream attention the game has received throughout the year. Also, Monster Hunter: World has managed to sell over 10 million copies within this year alone which speaks volumes on how popular Capcom’s game has been throughout 2018. The visuals for Monster Hunter: World are simply stunning and the game has been praised by various critics for its online multiplayer gameplay which allow up sixteen players.

While online co-op multiplayer gameplay that supported up to four players was one of the many features that made Monster Hunter: World an Action-RPG worth having it should be noted that a local multiplayer mode was absent within the game. But despite, not having local multiplayer gameplay Monster Hunter: World has still won the award for “Best Co-op Game” at this year’s Golden Joysticks Awards back in November. Seeing how successful Monster Hunter: World has been since the start of 2018 there is no doubt that this title deserved to be named the best RPG of this year.

Will Kingdom Hearts III sell more than the Resident Evil 2: Remake?

When it comes down to high profile RPG titles for next year two of the big titles that instantly comes to mind are Kingdom Hearts III along with the Resident Evil 2: Remake which are both set to appear on the PlayStation 4 along with the Xbox One. In terms of which game is going to sell more in 2019 is a topic that almost everyone in the gaming world is talking about right now. In fact, Kingdom Hearts III along with Resident Evil 2: Remake are probably two of the most anticipated RPG titles of the 10’s. While the Resident Evil 2: Remake is just an in-depth remake of the original game released back Capcom for the PS1 in ’98 Kingdom Hearts III is a brand new game altogether.

The world has been waiting to see Kingdom Hearts III ever since Kingdom Hearts II appeared on the PlayStation 2 back in 2005. In terms of which game is going to sell more next year onwards is very hard to predict. But as far as RPG’s in general are concerned it seems like nobody does it better than Square Enix. While the Resident Evil 2: Remake is something than fans of the series waited about 20 years to see Kingdom Hearts III will most likely have the edge as far as sales are concerned in 2019.

Will we ever see a Seiken Densetsu 5?

As many people know the Seiken Densetsu series is legendary and as been around since the early 90’s. Since the early 90’s we saw big games within the series such as Seiken Densetsu 2/Secret of Mana along with Seiken Densetsu 3 which both appeared on the SNES between 1993-1995. Many would argue that the series had reached its peak following the release of Seiken Densetsu 2. Ever since Secret of Mana came out it ended up becoming one of the most popular Action-RPG’s to have ever appeared on the SNES back in the early 90’s. While Seiken Densetsu 3 remained a Japanese exclusive for the SNES we did get to see another game called the Legend of Mana which was released in 1999 for the PS1.

Since then we got to some other games within the series including Sword of Mana for the Game Boy Advance along with Children of Mana for the Nintendo DS between 2003-2006. It was during 2006 where Seiken Densetsu 4/Dawn of Mana appeared on the PlayStation 2. While Dawn of Mana fell below the expectations of many people there are still those who are long time fans of the series would love to see a Seiken Densetsu 5 for a current generation console such as the Nintendo Switch or the PS4. However, if Square Enix ever decides to make a Seiken Densetsu 5 going back to the 16 bit graphics and gameplay used in Secret of Mana dud the early 90’s for the SNES would definitely be a great idea.

The visuals and gameplay for Dawn of Mana was completely different from what fans were used to seeing in the Seiken Densetsu series which might be one of the many reasons why the game did not live up to the expectations of critics. If Square Enix decides to make a Seiken Densetsu 5 then returning to their roots should be a prior in a potential upcoming release of this game. But as of right now it seems like Square Enix has no plans whatsoever on making a Seiken Densetsu 5 and it’s unlikely that it will ever happen.

Could Final Fantasy Tactics Advance have been more popular on GameCube?

As many people know Final Fantasy Advance Tactics was one of the most popular JRPG titles on the Game Boy Advance back in the early 00’s. As poor as the game was there are many people who whether or not Final Fantasy Advance Tactics could have been more popular on the Nintendo GameCube during the early 00’s. While Nintendo GameCube had some memorable games such as Metroid Prime, Super Mario Sunshine those games were all in 3D. Nintendo was not too big about the idea of having many 2D video games on GameCube which is one of the reasons why the released the Game Boy Advance.

However, there was a Final Fantasy Tactics game back in the early 90’s for the SNES there is a good chance that the game could have been more popular than what we saw in the early 00’s. But then again the SNES did not sell as much as the Game Boy Advance so its hard to say how much a Final Fantasy Tactics game would have sold on the 16 bit during the 90’s.

Super Mario RPG (1996) vs Paper Mario (2000) which game had more success?

As many know Super Mario RPG along with Paper Mario are among two of the best Mario based role playing games that Nintendo has ever made. Super Mario RPG was praised for its 3D like visuals along with its storyline which diverted from Bowser being the main antagonist. Instead, we get a new villain named Smithy that players had to stop using playable characters Mario, Bowser, Princess Toadstool, Mallow and Geno. As good as Super Mario RPG was for the Super NES many people would argue that the game should have been saved for the Nintendo 64 especially since the console was released in 1996 as well.

Ever since Super Mario RPG was released for its graphics Super NES back in 1996 many people wanted to see a direct sequel to the game. But unfortunately, between the mid 90’s and most of the 00’s Nintendo and Square Enix were not on good terms with each other. Its was a real shame that we never got to see a spiritual successor to Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars especially since it managed to sell over 1.4 million copies worldwide and was praised by fans and critics alike.

Despite, the fallout that Nintendo and Square Enix has back in the mid 90’s we were still fortunate enough to get another Mario role-playing game for the Nintendo 64. Paper Mario was initially released for the N64 in Japan before appearing in countries like America and Europe during 2001. Paper Mario was developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo and was also a game that was well received by various gaming publications along with fans of the Mario series in general.

Ever since, Paper Mario was released the game has managed to sell over 1.3 million copies worldwide on the Nintendo 64 and is a game that remains a classic to this day. While both Super Mario RPG along with Paper Mario became successful following their respective releases there are some would be more inclined to give the 16 bit SNES Mario game edge over the classic that we got in the early 00’s. While Paper Mario was cool Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars was simply the best role playing game to have ever emerged from the Mario series period.
