The best stories in video games are found in JRPGs. I don't make the rules, that's just the way it is. There's something about the format of a JRPG that makes it ideal for telling stories both big and small, and I've collected the ten BEST stories in all of JRPG-dom to present to you here. Let me know what you would consider to be the best JRPG stories of all time down in the comments, and who knows -- maybe I'll have to revise my list!
