The PlayStation 2 is full of magical RPGs that defined the genre, with a sense of discovery as you are transported into strange and interesting worlds.
One notable series is Dark Cloud and its sequel, Dark Cloud 2, which gave a freedom that wasn’t seen in RPGs at the time, including an interesting city-building mechanic.
