I really don't agree with this concept and there are plenty of creative ones as well. I mean
The World Ends With You is anything but a normal JRPG. As well as some of the most innovative gameplay this gen IMO along with demon soul's.
As well as kingdom hearts. I mean, the JRPG genre evolves as much as others. The Persona Series is quite different than the
Final Fantasy Series. As well as Sakura wars, which is part dating sim. I mean you might not like them, but there's lots of good ones. And lots of
differnt ones.
I mean, I didn't play SNES, as I only had a computer and I've played them recently and without nostalgia I personally found FFIV, and Chrono Trigger Overrated, But FFV, and FFVI, and DQ5
were both fantastic. Now I'm not saying everyone is wrong for liking those, but they didn't impress me like I was expecting So maybe they don't make the games to your taste anymore.
And dealing with FFXIII, you can't critisize it for being different and that's the reason you don't like it... and then call it a rehash that doesn't
make sense.
And I mean... Dragon Quest IX and FFXIII sold more than any other JRPG on SNES by a wide margin... I guess with Dragon Quest IX probably gonna be the highest selling dragon quest ever... With FFXIII obviously not. As well as many DS JRPG's selling well.
Now if you're talking about as a whole... I can't average out all the games for you...
