| Xen said: Roam the battlefield, but not the game world :P Sure ARPG's are also different, but theres much less micromanagement there, wouldn't you say? |
But again, if you're trying to define JRPG's by the amount of micromanagement then woudn't you have to take out games with tons of characters and where positioning matters (Suikoden).
Basically it makes the most easy sense to me like this:
JRPG's are RPG's from Japan, and within that genre there are 3 different battle systems that are common:
Turn-based RPG
Action RPG
Strategy RPG
