If they do remake it, it'll probably be the first JRPG I ever buy. I was always turned off by JRPGs because of the turn-based gameplay, but then, I've never really played through one so I can't be sure that I wouldn't like it. :P

Well, I played LotR: The Third Age and thought it was garbage. That's somewhat like a JRPG, right?

Actually, I own Dark Cloud. I enjoyed it for the most part, though I found it very repetitive and never finished it. Was that a good JRPG?

LOTR third age=shit

No story, decent gameplay (found it repitive besides the multi hit moves), just no story. A huge and major key aspect of JRPGS is story, it really is, there are quite a few JRPGS i would not have finished if it wasnt for the story. And the great ones combine gameplay with story (ff 7). Story adds to how you want to push to find out more, or like in FF 7 when Aeris dies, and you have to face the thing that killed her, you just feel emotion, and when you perform special moves you just feel how you want to beat the shit out of the thing O.O. Also many JRPGS are steping away from the turn based, which is great, but i also like having a few remain traditional.

But the new ones such as White Knight Story use active gameplay, but also has JRPG elements.

Dark cloud i dont know anything about that one

 


So Aeris dies. Thanks. *rollseyes*

Nah, I'm just joking. :P Story is also very important to me. That's why I love MGS so much. The gameplay isn't all that, tbh.  I mean, yeah it's fun, but the story is what really keeps me going.

Having anygood JRPGs you'd recommend? Should I just wait for WKS or something? WKS looks awesome, visually and story-wise. The gameplay look spretty fun as well.

And I think the only reasons I don't like turn-based gameplay is because of the few experiences I've had with it (LotR:TA, for example). I actually enjoyed what little of the LEgend of Dragoon I played.
