Though Adol is in all but 1 of them (strategy excluded), there is little to no continuity between them other than Adol's friendship with Dogi pretty much. You're better off just playing the ones that look the most interesting to you. I personally think starting at the newest game is fine. Though I do actually recommend playing Ys1 and 2 before origin. I don't know how to explain it but Origin fleshes out the twin goddesses in a way that really only means anything if you played 1 and 2 I suppose. I also recommend playing as yunica in Origin, not Hugo. Hugo is such a douchebag, it's painful to play as him.

In general, due to most of the games being unrelated, going in order of "best to worst" isn't a bad way to get into the series. Back when XSEED was publishing the game, this was actually the reason they published _Ys Seven_ first. That's the title that really got me into the series, so when they published _The Oath in Felghana_ I was primed for it. Even the "worse" _Ys_ entries are still solid games though, so don't be too worried about quality, though difficulty might be more of an issue.

My very first YS game was YS 8 and man it was FANTASTIC ! I had the time of my life playing it. Currently playing YS 9 and it’s pretty amazing. What a great story...

started on Dana? lol!

My friend lent me Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana about two years ago. I have zero knowledge of what the game franchise is but I am really glad I had the opportunity to play it. The story is for me is outstanding and touching, and has one of the greatest soundtracks in a game I've ever heard. One of the best action adventure games I've ever played. A game worthy of a Platinum Trophy playthrough and beyond. Thank you very much Nihon Falcolm for the wonderful gaming experience.

Ys Seven on the PSP is my first Ys game and I was absolutely hooked and now I'm a big fan of the Ys franchise with Ys VIII being one of my favorite game of all time.

I recommend completing the games in chronological order as I did. If sudden graphics jumps aren't your thing, you can start anywhere, but in my opinion this is the best way to experience Ys. Ys Origin Ys I & II Ys IV: Memories of Celceta Ys III: Oath in Felghana Ys V: Loat Kefin, Kingdom of Sand Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana Ys VI: Ark of Napishtim Ys VII: SEVEN Ys IX: Monstrum Nox

@@Nyonics I've kind of avoided looking harder into _Ys IX_ but the trailers have enough of a tone shift from the rest of the series, along with some mechanics that seem a bit too much like something Tetsuya Nomura would produce. _Ys VIII_ is going to be something difficult to top without feeling derivative or going in a new direction. Still, it's an _Ys_ game, so as long as the gameplay is solid, with a rocking OST, and something a bit more complicated than standard RPG story, it should be satisfactory enough. I just hope NISA does a better job with the translation this time around.

It’s really interesting seeing folks discover Ys through the newer games and come to love the series in its entirety. I grew up playing the original Ys I&II as well as Ys III on the Turbografx 16. Ys Book I & II was the first game I ever played. I have a deep love for this series and I’m super excited new people are discovering it and that Falcom keeps innovating. It’s also really interesting seeing new players love the team party mechanic. I’ll admit it took me a while to warm to it. After 20+ years of it always just being Adol, it’s hard to drop that loner mentality of the red haired swordsman bravely taking on all the evil by himself. Though, now I will admit that Memories of Celceta and Lacrimosa of Dhana are great games!

Iam currently playing ys 8 and it's my first one in the franchise and oh boy iam loving it. I almost set myself up for disappointment by starting with the best one.

don't worry! Ys I&II aged very very well, it's still awesome today and has one of the best ending in gaming history. Origin is epic, but you have to play all 3 characters to unlock the real (awesome) ending. Ys 7 and Celceta are very fun too and not so distant from 8. Felghana beats Napishtim for gameplay, but the latter has a great story! And, remember that Japan already has Ys 9...coming in English in 2021.

Definitely my favorite vid of yours, so far. I've been playing the Ys games for years, but only in the last couple, started to get obsessed with the franchise. I'm currently playing through Ys Origin and absolutely loving it. Yunica rules!!! After that, I need to decide between a few other entries in the series. This video will help!

Really been wanting to dive into this series. Appreciate the video guide! 🙏🏽

Great video Ys IV for the PC Engine CD is also an amazing game in the series There's a fan translation of the game into English and a group of translators called Burnt Lasagna hired actors and dubbed all the video cutscenes into English as well The game looks and feels like a retail release that we would of have had if it had been released here in the US

Love the Ys series. I've played almost all of them. Only discovered it a few years ago with Oath in Felghana. Just now starting to play my way through Origin, and loving it.

I'm just now discovering this series after watching the trailer for Ys 9 and after watching this I do believe this series is up my alley! I'm definitely gonna check it out

I've been a fan of the series for about 10 years, playing them in release order more or less, including the fan translated ones. My last game was Ys 7 this year and I loved it so much! You really made me hype for Ys 8 now. And someday I'll play them all in a marathon (probably before getting into 8)

Played Ys 8 last month. I loved it Soo much I played Celceta, Origin and just now finished Monstrum Nox. Thanks Ys 8 for introducing me to your Great universe.

Feel exactly the same as you with Ys 7. Now I’m looking at your videos to see what I have missed all my life.

I was looking for PSP games to download, and I looked up some recommended games, and one of them was Ys 7. I decided to give it a try, and just by the intro of the game alone freaking blew me away. Right then and there, I knew I was in for a great adventure. And what an adventure it was. Since then, I came to love the Ys series, and started playing the other ones too

I blitzed Ys1 in one evening out of curiousity and it got me so hooked. I could hardly believe how a game could feel so old school trashy in the very best of ways. It was the most fun I'd had in a game in years. I loved every bit of it along with the incredibly questionable scaling system.

Great ranking. Thanks for sharing!

The Ys series... basically a history lesson of game development done right. Can't wait for Monstrum. Feels like it will do what Celeceta did, but who knows what Falcom has under their sleeves. February can't come too soon (yes, I will wait until the PC version).

I love this video. Your impartial ranking really took into account the games as opposed to just your own subjective views. Nice! I love that you ranked them based on multiple facets too (ie: this one is good on psp but not as good on PC or vice versa). I enjoyed the chronology release at the end too. Will definitely be watching your ranking videos now. Going to watch your STAR OCEAN video soon and the TALES OF as well!

Thanks to you I bought YS Origin back in the day. I liked it so much that I've purchased Memories of Celceta, Lacrimosa of Dana and now I'm currently playing Monstrum Nox. Such a beautiful series!

YS's music is perfect!!!!! Specially the rock/metal tunes from the older games!!

Ys mask of the sun and dawn of ys were completely replaced from the canon by Memories of Celceta and they were not made by Falcom to begin with, just in case someone was curious why he didn't write them down in the timeline but he did put Ys V: Lost Kefin, Kingdom of Sand

Erick, where would you place Monstrum Nox? I just received it and will be playing through it soon!

Let’s Begin! 👍🏻 (Hahaha loving your videos and your personality my dude!)

Great video man. I remember my first time playing ys. My dad bought a turbografx16 when I was a kid. Brand new. With the cd attachment. I still have it at my house. One of the few things I have left of my dad after he passed away. To Make The End Of Battle is my personal favorite videogame fight song ever. Playing through ys 8 right now and I want to play the next one whenever I get the chance.

I was on the fence about getting “Y’s VIII”, even though I loved “Y’s 7” and “Oath in Felghana”, but after watching this video and the fact that the digital version is on sale for $23.00 on the Switch right now, going to finally pick it up!

Hola Erick entre las versiones del ps4 y las del which cuáles recomiendas?

Thanks for the list at the end. I usually play game series' in chronological order.

Intro theme sounded fun. Which Ys was that from?

Erick I have to thank you for introducing the Ys series to me. I completely fell in love with it. Absolute masterpieces of games. I thought that if such an JRPG enthusiast as you are loves them it must be something special and sure it is.

I've never played any Ys game but I've gotten all of the ones that I was able to aside from the newest entries. Do you recommend that I play in chronological order or order of release? I'm assuming release date so you can see the improvements but just wondering your thoughts?

Just out of curiosity, I’m sure you played it by now, where would you place nox monstrum?

Por tus recomendaciones empecé a jugar el YS VIII y me está encantando! Saludos desde CDMX!

I dig your genuine enthusiasm.

Thanks for this list, bought memories of Celceta when it launched but didn’t get around to playing it until earlier in the year, got its hooks in me and showed me how awesome Ys is but o stopped because I wanted to figure out if I should play other games in the series before I finished it, I’ll get Dana for sure later but I think I will at least get 7 and try to play those 3 before 9 comes to the west

Fortunately very little plot continuity is meaningful in Ys games. You can play them in almost any order and all you're going to miss are things like, "why does Adol already know this woman [tiny tiny part of Ys VIII if you haven't played Celceta]," "Where did this girl come from and why is she traveling with Adol [tiny tiny part of Napishtim if you didn't play Y's V]," and "Why is this blue-haired snacc traveling with Adol [any game if you haven't played Ys I&II]." The general idea is that the Romun Empire is always after Adol, but I don't think I even know why and I've played or watched LPs of all the games except Celceta. They really treat each title as a standalone adventure from Adol's lifetime chronicles (except I & II really are like two halves of a single game).

I had never played an Ys game. I've spent the past two years playing Another Eden on my phone. Recently a bunch of "Tales of" characters were added and I liked their personalities so much I decided to try to find their entries for PS4. I found two of four, but I also there was Ys VIII on discount and I thought, "Hey, I've heard that name before." I've been playing it almost non-stop for the past month or so. It has quickly become one of my all-time favorites.

Great video! I'd love to hear what you think of Ys IX!

I just learned about the Ys series a few months ago. I've now beaten Ys 8, Ys 9, and Memories of Celceta. I'm planning on playing The Oath in Felghana next. I'll likely get to Ys 6 and 7 at some point, though from what I'm reading online, seems like people are less enthusiastic about Ys 6.

Ys 5 was actually the first action rpg incarnation of Ys. Sadly, it has yet to receive an official English release, though there is a fan translation of the SNES version of Ys 5.

After buying and leaving it in my ps4 library for years, I've started playing Ys8 2 weeks ago. It's the first game I've wanted to achieve 100% map completion and do every Quest possible. Finished everything today and oh boy, this is one of the best games I've ever played. The music is one of the best composed for games. Seriously.

Thanks for the ranking! What is the music in the outro, starting at 10 minutes? Guess from Ys but which song? I fell in love with Ys Book I&II on PC Engine 2 years ago but Ys 8 is one of my favorite games of the last years

It's "First Step Towards Wars" from the Ys 1 remake: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eqSgybqxka7bZcY.html

One of the very first games I ever played as a kid was Ys: Vanished Omen on the Master System so it'll always have a special place for me. So any version of Ys 1 would be top 3 for me. I also kinda love Ys 3 on SNES but that might be nostalgia. Oath in Felghana gets my number 1 spot, though. That's the pinnacle of the series to me. Even more than 8. Oath > 8 > Origin to me. I just love that someone is giving Ys some love in general lol.

Got into the series when I found Ys I & II Chronicle+ dirt cheap on steam back in 2015, instantly loved it because of the soundtrack. Since then, Ys VIII was my most hyped game ever, and once I got to play it, it was even better than I expected. Definitely one of my favorite games.

Hey Erick, if you were to rank Ys 9 on this list, where would it stand according to you?

Whats the Last Music name, in the first place?

Hi there. Could anyone tell me which YS game I should begin with? I know that may appear a dumb question but i guess what i mean is, can i start these games say for example a few games in skipping the early ones? Does that ruin the story? Or do i need to actually play from the very beginning?

New to Ys. Never played one. I am going to start with 8 but want to know...would it be better if I play it in Chronological Order? Will I get more out of 8 by doing that?

What do you think of the ds remakes of 1 and 2?

Played ys 8 yesterday for the first time. It’s been a while since I haven’t felt 4 hours pass by so fast. Though the switch port has a lot of jaggy grass, it’s still that good of a game

The original MSX, Ancients Ys vanished omen 1 and 2 are still my favorite and yes it has translations, together with the MSX's X.A.K. series they were the best rpg games for their time

I started to fall in love on YS series when I started playing YS: Seven

Been played all the YS series, starting from Wanderers era, and my favorite is Origin, it's perfect! Can climb Darm Tower in any difficult anytime and I still get amazing vibes through the adrenalinic gameplay and badass epic music it have! And after that some epic boss rushes with Adol!

Erick Landon, always one of my favorite reviewers, this dude is like my brother from another mother.

I got into the Series with VIII. Then grabbed Memories of Celceta and now will get into origins on the switch when the physical comes out. I’m hooked.

Is there a update video with Ys 9?

Just finished ys8 and I loved it so much, I just knew ys7 is the last series, so that's why adol said (ys8) he never been to altago city 😂, thx for the video

Finally, took long enough... Out of the ones I have beaten, The Oath in Felghana is my favourite. If you like, you should also consider: Xanadu Next

Are there any other action Rpgs that hold weight like Ys VIII?

Ys3 snes was my first Ys game and is one of my top 5 favorite soundtracks of all time, especially the PSP redone music which brought me back to and made me a fan of the games. The code that let's you change music on the second controller I abused to no end and I would often fight the final boss with the shop music cause it was my favorite. Ys 8 is my fav Ys game, the story was mind blowing and epic layered. The games aren't polished but the fast paced battling and characters, and the JDK Falcom Sound team that redoes all their music for each release, makes this one of my top must buy day 1 franchises along with Tales of, Final fantasy, persona and dynasty warriors (guilty pleasure)

what are the games in intro?

My first game was Wanderers of Ys and I've been hooked ever since. 8 is one of the most perfect action rpgs I've had the pleasure of playing and Celceta and 7 aren't far behind.

Wanders from Ys holds a special place for me, as it was my first Ys game, a long long time ago.

While I'd known about this series for a long time, it wasn't until _Ys Seven_ that I really fell in love with it, and Falcom games in general. That said, I've yet to play either of the first two games, nor the 5th (which has a fan translation). Everything else I've played and quite enjoyed. Pretty excited to be getting _Ys IX: Monstrum Nox_ soon, I just hope NISA does a much better job with the initial localization this time around. As incredible as the gameplay of _Ys VIII_ was, the translation that NISA shipped it was was laughably rough to say the least.

Ys "An underrated series with amazing gameplay, and amazing soundtracks. And now with amazing storyline"

the reason why I like Ys a lot is : - it wasnt a turned base RPG like Final Fantasy. - Fast playing that not takes too long to complete. - Great music soundtrack in every title. Genius composers. Ys The Oath in Felgahana is my favorite

Hey, obviously the video is a bit older, but (at least now) the PC version of Ys VI allows for teleporting from anywhere except story specific locations to any previously visited save point. Not sure how it was before, but with that feature, I didn't feel like the game was too difficult to backtrack through. Either way, great list! EDIT: Also, having played all of the Ys games released in English for PC/Modern Consoles except 7, I have to agree that VIII is just something else. It really is a masterpiece, and in a series with so many workmanlike games, it absolutely stands out. While I probably would put Ys Origins as my personal number 2, I have to agree that Falcom really has done a great job improving Ys with each subsequent release. Honestly, its why Ys IX kind of disappointed me. It isn't a bad game *at all*, but after VIII and considering the series' track record, I guess I had unreasonably expected it would be a masterpiece too.

I know i'm late asf But Ys VI The Ark of Napishtim *HAS* an item for teleportation You can find it on one of the mountains (i forgot which one) but in that area you'll also fight the fire Fairy and get the Flame sword

February of 2021 we’re getting 9. If you want to play it on the PC or Switch, those ports are coming out in the summer.

Y's VIII was one of the best action rpgs I have ever played and one of the best I have played this past year. I have such a hard time beating long games and I spent a good 80 hours getting everything in that game. I loved the characters the story and the gameplay was king! I normally hate action rpgs or at least would rather they be turn based, but this game flowed so well. I felt like a badass and the level up system kept me feeling invigorated to keep going. I just always felt like I was growing and getting better and better. An absolute masterpiece in my eyes.

I just got Ys 8 on sale and I’m loving it. First Ys game I’ve ever played

The first Ys I played was 1 & 2, they got a fan translation + enhanced BGM on the PC so I decided to give it a Go! I won against The final Boss on my first try standing on the last tile with 1 HP!!!! I was out of breath! My best Ys is Origin.

The Limted Run, collectors edition of Ys Origins for the Switch looks sweet

I can't wait for ys 9, next year. Glad it was confirmed for switch.

Ys seven is also what got me into the series. Love that game. But yea, my list is very similar, like you said it's a series that keeps improving and 8 is just amazing. Such a good series, in my top 5 favorite series, love the amount of adventure and wonder I feel with great gameplay and sweet soundtracks. Just great. If you've read this far stranger make sure to enjoy you're day :)

Ys 6 on PC got an update where you can teleport to the major areas since 2018 and Ys Oath in Felghana got the Voice Acting mod for English on 2019 for Pc too. The only problem of Celceta and Seven for me are their ports for PC. While there's a magnificent Chinese port of Seven who remade the graphics for 720P, XSEED just ported a emulated version of Ys Seven for Pc, and Celceta is the same on Pc, it's a emulated version of the Vita Version, at least you can play Celceta on Ps4 on a far superior port.

I had been a long time fan of Falcom soundtracks before playing any of thier games. Trails in the Sky FC being my first entry to Falcom games. Ys 8 is pure raw fun to play with a decent story and easily has one of the best soundtracks of the Falcom library. I plan to try a harder difficulty on my next playthrough. Playing Tokyo Xanadu ex+ and Trails in the Sky SC currently. I really like the vibes that Falcom games give off. They feel nostalgic even without prior history. Though I'm not sure I could have appreciated the games in the same way as if I had followed them back in the SNES days. I have within one year become obsessed with playing Falcom's entire backlog.

My only issue with the music in Ys 8 is that it is ever so slightly too fast. Maybe im wrong

I'd like to see where you rank the new Y's 9 on this list.

Erick, if you never watched the Ys OVAs, do it when the opportunity appears. They're not masterpieces, but still, if you're a fan, it is worth watching.

I'm playing Ys Origins and I love it. It can be a grind fest but very addictive.

viii was shockingly good. i just played it recently and it blew me away, and that was my entry point into the ys franchise. i immediately bought celceta and origins and dove straight into celceta. now i need to find a copy of seven and felghana - i wish they'd remaster them for ps4/5. looking forward to ix coming out soon!

i liked it a lot. it's clearly clunkier, being an older game. the characters aren't as fleshed out, some of the systems have warts that are worked out later (like map completion). but i found the battle system actually a little better because it is faster, and if you pay attention to delaying your combo starts to get max sp return, you can basically use skills infinitely, which is more fun than just button mashing the attack button. overall, it's a "for it's time a really good game" experience. so as a retrogamer, this is more than good enough for me. however, it is clearly a lower quality production that's earlier in the line.
