I’m on the hunt for a website where I can dive deep into the stories of JRPGs. I’m not just looking for a quick summary; I want detailed narratives that cover most of the story. Given that many JRPGs can take over 30 hours to complete, I’d love to refresh my memory on the plots of games I’ve played and maybe even catch up on some I won’t have time to play. Ideally, the site would provide written content along with some artwork or screenshots, and it would be great to have the option to listen to the soundtrack while reading. Any recommendations?

You might want to check out channels that post ‘game movies.’ These often include just cutscenes and essential gameplay throughlines. Search for your favorite game and see if that exists!
You asked a great question! Before YouTube took over, Let’s Plays were often done this way. For example, you can look at a screenshot-based Let’s Play of Chrono Trigger here: [link].
That’s really close to what I’m looking for! I would have preferred something a bit shorter, but this is a good find. Thanks for sharing!
Honestly, you’re not likely to find anyone posting the entire script or all cutscenes from a game. The closest option might be watching a no-commentary Let’s Play video on a faster speed.
I did come across a FF VII playthrough that was pretty thorough, but I’m really just after a concise version, around 10 pages or so. I know I wouldn’t get everything, though.
That sounds like a solid option! I’ll give that a shot, thanks for the tip!
