Looks like Jrpg as a genre is at a point where it is no longer relevant in the west. ITs time for it to evolve in to something else (MMO's maybe?) or go in to niche territory. Their current state actually reminds me of 2D fighters/sidescrolers and where they were in the late 90s. Getting medicore reviews and having a hardcore following and nothing more...

That's almost like saying Fighting games need to evolve into something else, like FPS.

JPRG, as any genre, can always do well with a little innovation, even in a radical way in some cases, but it is still a very consolidated genre and no single game or reviews trends will mean its final day anytime soon.
