Many jrpg franchises sells more in US than in Japan(FF, KH, e SO). Why dragon quest isn't capable to sell a million in west alone?

Unlke those other ones, western gamers can see how dated and lame this particular brand of JRPG is. It should be caled 'Cliche : The Video Game'.

You are an idiot.

And you're a douche bag who says things without providing any argument. I hate dissing you because of your Bruce Campbell icon. But yeh DQ makes the same game over and over like madden. Provide an argument back perhaps.

I'm sorry for calling you an idiot. I had written a response, but decided to delete everything and go with the idiot comment cause I knew you probably wouldn't listen, seeing you called an entire genre "lame", based only on personal taste.

You're obviously not a fan, so when you criticise the genre, you're not trying to be constructive, you're trying to feel like you have superior taste than all the people who buy the game. Fans of the genre are allowed to criticise it, cause they want to see the genre grow. Haters of the genre like yourself want to see it crash and burn. They should just not comment.

You make a good point.  I was being a hater.

I do like some JRPGS like Chrono Trigger, and the more tactical ones like J'eanne Darc.  I guess I meant the melodramatic ones with simple fighting.
