| Marks said: Yeah good point my man. I'm in the country of origin camp, but I do think that goes hand in hand with differences in gameplay. An American would never come up with a game like Final Fantasy, and a Japanese would never come up with a game like Fallout...too big of a difference in culture or whatever. |
But Japanese could (and have) come up with game like Souls games - which is quite WRPG by that other, non-country of origin definition. If more of their countrymen would go that route, and maybe use more of Japanese medieval heritage (instead of going usual pop-culture emo heroes), just like western developers are doing with their RPGs, maybe todays western audience (where bulk of sales are) would accept Japanese developed RPGs much more open minded.
