Will JRPGs Die Next Generation?

Actually, there is no point of calling them JRPGs and WRPGs anymore, things have changed and the lines have been crossed. I was not stating my opinion on the matter, JRPGs is a term used to describe turn base, usually cartoonish style RPGs with young main characters with unique hairstyles. I know some WRPGs meet those conditions, but as I said, these elements were first created and evolver in Japan and thus.. JRPGs. If the OP suggests that all the RPGs from Japan would die then he is greatly mistaken :)

 

However, the Tales series has been around for a while and is not turn based, but meets those other requirements.

I still think many "JRPG" or "JRPG-like" games will still exist as long as RPG's are still widely played.
