I think the main issue here is that more and more Western gamers are starting to really dislike the stylistic approach that JRPGs (and Xenogears is no exception here) generally take, and even if you don't it's somehow become cool or popular to hate on them. In a way its a testament to Xenogear's quality; even people who hate JRPGs will still rate Xenogears (and the likes of Chrono Trigger) really highly. I can guarantee you people who dislike WRPGs (i.e. me) have no love for Planescape: Torment. But that's cool in a world where the likes of Mass Effect and Knights of the Old Republic are critically acclaimed it's really not that shocking that people can have shockingly bad taste.


Actually I dislike Xenogears, and I actualy liked JRPGs back when I played it...
