In light of the JRPG fading into obscurity, it is unsettling to see so many JRPG fan's resistant to advancements. There is a reason Xenoblade and Skyrim are known as the best games in thier RPG styles. They increased the immersion and the lore of their games by simply designing a better world.
The idea that JRPG's widely adopting game design ideas found in Xenoblade or upcoming JRPG's like X or Final Fantasy 15 would magically make them more like western games is unjustified. All that crap that KylieDog (no offense to him) is of no interest to me and is not what Im asking for. Go kill beetles or go fetch that flower on that side of the map and bring it back to me is also not what what I'm asking for (though that crap is still happening in JRPG's anyway). Worlds that better offer the sense of adventure,exploration and more flexibility in how characters interact with their enviorments. I cant not find any harm in that.
