| jesus kung fu magic said: The J man likes his jrpgs but doesnt see the role playing in them. The J man sees games like mass effect and fable as true rpgs because you can actually shape your character.All you do in JRPGs is just follow the story and level up thats it its like a action adventure in the J mans opinion |
As much as I love JRPGs, hes right. JRPGs are essentially games based off their system of play, as in Action Adventure, or Strategy. In very few instances do you really mold your character aas well as you can in Fable or Mass Effect.
If we took the meaning literally, Role Playing Game, then Halo would classify as an RPG.

GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.
