What's /vr/'s take on the hardest retro RPG ever made? Can be turn-based, action, whatever.
I would say SaGa Frontier 2. Just getting past the learning curve isn't enough. Every chapter is a point-of-no-return, and the game often hinders grinding by not allowing you to leave dungeons once you enter, stranding you with no way to heal your party or maintain your equipment. Several people have played all the way up to the final dungeon only to have to restart the entire game from scratch because of the extensive preparation that has to be done chapters ahead of time.
Wizardry IV: the Return of Werdna
Well that was easy.
Final Fantasy Legends
Most challenging game of all time, out of any genre.

>Final Fantasy Legends
Are you referring to the mobile game, or this?
Final Fantasy Legend for Game Boy wasn't too difficult. You could backtrack and grind as much as you wanted, although keeping any humans in your party equipped was certainly expensive.

Final Fantasy Mystic Quest.

Sorry, I meant Mystic Quest. I am a retard and cannot troll properly.
It's an absolutely hellish combination of difficulty and terrible design. Easily the worst RPG ever made.
Wizardry IV

Because once he snaps his fingers he is going to show the crowd how a real dancer does things.
I always thought it was Soya Frontier
