I am redacting my formal statement because this a genre I love and a battle I will choose. First, no not all JRPGs are exactly as I described. I am speaking mainly about the JRPGs I have played which include almost every single Final Fantasy game (I have played up till 10), Xenosaga, Suikoden, Brave Fencer Musashi, Secret of Mana, Earthbound, and on. Not all JRPGs have every single fault I listed. However, all of them do have male protagonists or party member who falls into the sexually confused emo hipster stereotype. Furthermore, JRPGs do have more of an emphasis on leveling and character development before gameplay and exploration as is the reverse in WRPGS. You can play and be good at a Diablo type game spending only a third to half your current skill points. You will die easily and often if you do not level and develop your character properly in a JRPG. Finally, linearity and a movie like game has become common with Final Fantasy games since Final Fantasy 7. It was very apparent in Final Fantasy 8 and is in your face in Final Fantasy 13. I have a friend who is playing Final Fantasy 13 and he had to get to Ch. 11 or so before he could freely explore the world map. We are talking close to 40 hours of linear gameplay here where the developer gives you no freedom until a certain point. |
Earthbounds ? In earthbound no one is emo because the game is around courage and friendship and nobody look like feminine probably because the character are ugly lol.
Sequel I want the most :
Patapon 3 , Elite beat Agent 2 , ROTK 12 , Mother 4, Legend of legaia 3, Resident Evil outbreak 3.
