I've played Digital Devil Monogatari: Megami Tensei I & II [NES] but never recommended those.
I find these relaxing, I enjoy the grind/difficulty. I also play a lot of traditional roguelikes and dungeon crawlers as I find these equally relaxing and fun to play.
I would like people to look into what I recommend even if they won't play them. I don't treat people like they can't play them or assume they couldn't enjoy them.
I'm also expecting a lot more known games to be recommended and more popular, If you're playing a translation it's more a "deep cut" recommendation.
