I would not have played Nier if it wasn't for KamikazePotato recommending it, also a bunch of visual novels
Most importantly, Phoenix Wright, which will probably be every other post in this topic (and all the other posts will be Zero Escape and Trails) (I know we have this topic pretty often but it's one of my faves) --- (|| ' ' ||) drooling while eating . /|_|\ ... Copied to Clipboard!

Also Life is Strange, which, while not nearly as big a board obsession, I played because of a mention here. --- darkx ... Copied to Clipboard!

Probably every visual novel I've ever played.
So Ace Attorney, Life is Strange, Danganronpa, and now I'm in process of going through 999. Tales of Symphonia and Disgaea were also two big Board 8 darlings I played in the mid-aughts, and Skies of Arcadia was a game I took interest around that time because it was in a couple contests. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service!

Honestly, probably nothing. I really enjoyed the Persona games that I have played, but I don't know if I would call myself a true fan of it.

Ace Attorney, Persona, and Trails are the big ones. Probably lots of others that I heard of that weren't board-wide phenomena, too.

A lot of Visual Novels - surprisingly not Ace Attorney, though, I was one of the original adopters.
There's many games I don't try without GameFAQs in general, but the biggest B8-specific one is probably Shadow Hearts. EDIT: OH YEAH Zen I specifically remember you sold me on Persona 3 FES back in the day. --- It's Reyn Time. ... Copied to Clipboard!

CaptainOfCrush 04/29/20 8:23:19 PM #22: |
Probably the entire RPG genre. When I first came here in 2002, I was very familiar with FF and CT, but the only RPG I had ever played was Pokemon. Who knows if/when that would have changed if not for deep imprinting by Board 8 and GameFAQs.

Phoenix Wright 04/29/20 8:36:08 PM #24: |
Nier and Demon's Souls kind of, in that they were getting a bit of buzz here and a few other places, so I bought them near launch and bounced off them, but they were always on my mind considering how often they came up so I did eventually go back to finish them. They're now both in or near my top 10 games. I wouldn't attribute my love for them directly to B8 but B8 certainly contributed.
Uncharted, Apex, Terraria are games I think fit the bill considering how often I played them online with B8ers and how integral that was to my experience. Lightning Strikes posted... Persona is the big one, specifically Persona 3.I think this is my best answer though. I saw a lot of praise for Persona 3 around release, and once FES came out I made a topic looking for recommendations only for it to be mentioned in the most posts. I went down to a game store to pick it up and adored it. --- ICON: The next time you say forever I will punch you in your face. ... Copied to Clipboard!

For me, it was specifically SC2K4 when we thought Liquid Snake was almost as strong as Solid Snake, and so I felt the need to figure out why the heck these games were so popular.

Phoenix Wright and Umineko, most definitely. Think I got into Lord of the Rings Online from people here. Ooh, and Heroes of the Storm and Armello.
And if it weren't for this board, I probably would've never tried a Shin Megami Tensei game, and probably would've never played Persona 4 one summer at my friend's house, probably playing something completely different. --- "In my headcanon, some staffer saw Trump pull out his phone and start typing so they just Terry Tate Office Linebacker'd him out of his shoes." - FFD ...

I came here young enough to have not played all too much. Board 8 probably influenced the order of things a bit, but I'd still have played them eventually, probably. Anyway, Final Fantasy and Metal Gear Solid comes to mind. Chrono Trigger if individual games are included. I don't really know what else.
