Can’t say I have a favourite one to play as when I finish one I rarely go back. My favourites that I’ve played so far are Dragon Quest XI, Ys VIII Lacrimosa of Dana and Ruined King.

I’ve been meaning to get into the Ys series as I’ve never played them. Do you have a recommended starting point?

I haven’t played any earlier ones as they’re a bit old for my tastes. I’ve completed Ys VIII and played some of Ys IX but couldn’t say much about it. When I searched the same question before I started, the consensus seemed to be start with Ys VIII then Ys IX. The games aren’t in chronological order though so just play what seems interesting.
The newer one, Ys X Nordics, I also haven’t played due to the controversy surrounding it (they released it in Oct 2024 then a couple of months later announced a different version that was released in Feb 2026 with more content and QOL added - if you wanted the update you had to buy the whole game again!).
