Play all FFs (other than FF11 of course) and all Dragon Quest and all SMT and most JRPGs actually and you'll see that they all have a similar structure.

I said the "common" patern, not the only patern.

Yeah, I edited my post a few minutes ago. Just because it's common doesn't mean it's good. In fact, it only reinstates the fact FFXIII is nothing new, just a bare bones JRPG stripped down to a boring mess.

except for the ones he listed FF, DQ, and SMT are some of the most highly regarded among JRPG fans

Old FFs and all DQs are not boring linear and townless grind fests. That only belongs to the run of the mill JRPGs, like FFXIII

I mean... uhh... Townless Grindfests are called dungeon crawlers not run of the mill JRPG's
... which tbh FFXIII kind of is a dungeon crawler. Except that it has towns just not in the traditional sense. uhh :P



Well, I can agree with that. Dungeon Crawlers are, mostly, run of the mill games to me.
