To RPG lovers: why I can't embrace the genre? T_T

Well you should try a WRPG once. WRPG's =/= JRPG's.

How much are that different? besides the artwork

 

EVERYTHING is different. I am amazed they are both considered part of the same genre, they are so different.

Oblivion is an example of a WRPG

Eternal Sonata is an example of a JRPG

I haven't seen many games that different. It's like comparing Mario Party to Crysis. Both very good, in their own way, but they appeal to different people. Some people like both, some like neither.

I personally prefer the WRPG, although I am getting Valkyria Chronicles, mainly because I've never really gotten into JRPGs. Final Fantasy appears ridiculously convoluted to me.
