If you like DDLC, you should try Song of Saya. Just a warning, it can get quite graphic, but the storytelling is amazing.
Also Chrono Trigger if you're a Final Fantasy fan.
Chrono Trigger have played and loved as well, but it's not one I've gone back to and replayed, which was one of my key criteria in this list, longevity (for me - I realise Chrono Trigger does have it between the multiple endings and New Game+ mode).
I have a very distinct memory of first playing it via emulator on ZSNES, and running into a bug in a section in the future that required you to hold L and R and activate some controls to open a door. For whatever reason the emulator wasn't handling that properly and I got stuck. Eventually went back to it on Snes9x and was able to progress, but that stuck out.
Haven't heard of Song of Saya though, thanks for the recommendation!
I don't think an emulator bug (especially from a 90s emulator) should factor into how good a game is.
I'd recommend giving it another shot. It's one of my favorite games of all time, and the only game I find myself replaying every year.
Oh, sorry, please don't read it that way! It's a game I very much enjoyed when I played it, and I do still today watch speed runners race it occasionally. The bug didn't impact my enjoyment of it in the longer term, it's just a fun fact I remember about it from when I did play it all those years ago that I thought I'd share.
Ah. Makes sense. The early days of emulators were something I really enjoyed. One of the reasons I even got into computers was ZSNES (although glitching Pokemon 1st gen was another)
