| chocoloco said: Why does it matter if games are Eastern? i have enjoyed this gen more than any other and most of the games are Western, As long as you are having fun it should not matter. I do not feel bad at all for the guys who think everything Eastern is better because it is not. |
No one said it was superior. But there are obvious distinctions in Japanese games versus Western games, ranging from art design and style to cultural/social differences as well as different preferences regarding genre. You could even claim there are fundamental differences regarding game design.
The fact that they were at one point dominant and now seem at times nonexistent worry and bother fans of the style. The lack of Japanese Rpg's particularly bother people imo, because Western rpg's are very different beasts a lot of the time.
EDIT: It feels like Square Enix is a very inefficiently run company sometimes. I feel like it takes them to long to come up with substantial progress with games, particularly, Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts. They are a pretty big company. Also, they need a creativity boost. You gotta leave Final Fantasy alone, make new ip's.
