I completely disagree. The most important thing about a JRPG to me is the story and having an interesting world/lore. I loved a lot of the older Final Fantasy games but the battle system was something I was willing to put up with, not something I really enjoyed engaging in. The story and the wider mythology was what kept me playing.

I agree. The main point of a JRPG is the STORY and Character development. And the main story, the characters and the world should really feel connected.

I find it hard to remember a game I got more immersed in the world and which and it'slore than Morrowind. I like many JRPGS (although I admitedly haven't layed many of the newer ones), but I fell more connected to the game world when I'm not being strictly directed (which happens in plenty WRPGS as well, sure).
