I've never gotten the whole "WRPG's are exactly like D&D while JRPGS are nothing like it".

If your DM decides to make your character for you and then give you a more linear storyline that you can make choices within, that would be a JRPG.

Making a character and choosing whether or not to kill every person you come across isn't really what defines table top RPG's to me.

I would take that DM out behind the shed and beat the stupid out of him, for the record. Not that it's a bad experience, but if I wanted that I'd play EarthBound or Final Fantasy instead of letting some Cheetoh-smelling nerd dictate a story and my actions to me.
