WRPGs Vs JRPGs.

"Jrpgs when they try to be Wrpgs.... in other words the soul series."

- I disagree since this series had some of the worst game design I had ever seen, like, on par with shitty indie games

naturally JRPG/WRPG just comes down to preference and well, the games themselves (hard to make blanket-statements over an entire genre), but

Which had games with the better setting? - JRPG settings tend to be more interesting

Which had games with the better music? - JRPGs for SURE, western soundtracks tend to be bland and treated more like background music you hardly hear except in exciting scenes (kinda like in movies) and therefore usually make little to no impression on the player and aren't very hype

Which had games with better game design (How the game works)? - generally WRPGs seem to do better in this (too many cliches/poor balancing/grinding issues in JRPGs I think)

Which had games with the better combat gameplay? - JRPGs tend to be more creative and successful on this front, IMO

Which had games with the better story? - same as above, but highly comes down to preference

note that I'm of the opinion that JRPGs lately have generally gotten kinda worse, maybe even more generic and bleh, like for some games it's all about fan service and tropes and shit

not that WRPGs are really doing anything impressive either and don't have their fair share of (slightly more realistic) boobs, but still
