Damn, did not know that... So both of those games are more linear?


Well, it depends really.

You can get JRPG's like Xenoblade or Tales where you're given areas to explore and combat is integrated into that (either directly or through a separate arena-based combat system).  It sounds to me like this is the kind of exploration in a JRPG that you like.

A first person dungeon crawler (like Etrian Odyssey) is about exploration, but it's a different kind of exploration.  You'll be exploring a grid-based map step by step.  It's certainly a different experience.

And then a SRPG like Fire Emblem is more built around the combat; thinking laterally in battle situations and stuff.  I haven't actually played FE, but certainly for things like Disgaea and Wild ARMs XF that I've played there's no world map or anything and the games focus on telling you a story and putting you in combat scenarios.

Yeah, I've watched a little bit of the Last Story on youtube, and it seems like a better fit for me...

But I must say, I'm intruiged by the whole SRPG concept... I just wish there were a longer demo of FE on 3DS...



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
