Atlus have proven time and time again that when it comes to making top-notch JRPGs, no one can do it with quite as much style and flare as they can, having released some of the genre's most beloved games over the last few decades. While a lot of their games carry over the traditional core components of classic RPGs, such as turn-based combat and a party system, many of them also share the brutal difficulty which had become synonymous with role-playing games back in the 90s and early 2000s.
