Erm I'm actually talking about JRPG not WRPG... but fine.

 

That is what I thought but you wrote "All RPGs".

My bad.

 

I was saying the other day to another member here that I thought L5 was spending too much time worrying about the social aspect of this game and that it alone was going to drop this games overall score.

So far I seem to be correct.

The online and social portiono of the game if I am not mistaken was said to be like that of Facebook. If I am not mistaken, isn't stuff like that more popular in the West?

Do they use anything like that in Japan? Do they care for it? I honestly don't know, I don't use Facebook.

Well I'm not sure about online gaming, although Japanese love to play games social with friends. It seems that the biggest issue which Famitsu had with the online part, is the missing microphone option. Concerning the Facebook look alike and then I can only speak of what I've experienced with My Space, that ain't that big in Japan comparing to the US My Space for instance. So yes, I guess you're right that stuff is far more popular in the West.
