The same goes with RPGs, however WRPG and JRPG often arent the best terms. What is much more appropriate to genre is terms like turn based, strategy or action, in which games like Dark Souls and Skyrim would be categorized together. |
We have a term for that as well. Arcade racers, kart racers, and sim racers which i do always ask actually if someone asks me.
but yes that is my point. What is the point in calling them JRPG and WRPG. Dark Souls is a completely different genre than FF which is usually considered a JRPG. This is why a lot people consider it a WRPG and why the devs called it a WRPG.
If people are going to classify them as one genre then why isnt it the case in every other genre? People acknowledge the differences in 2D and 3D platformers, FPS and TPS, Simulator Racing and Arcade racing, yet some people will not acknowledge the difference in rpg's and wrap them up in one for some reason.
