IMHO JRPG>WRPG, and I've been playing RPG-style games since I was about 10.


WRPGs are, by design, superior to jRPGs. Japanese RPGs are limited by it's archaic linear design, and abuse of non-interactive scenes, and some other things.

That's why you most likely will never see a jRPG reach the brilliance of Planescape: Torment in terms of story, characters, depth, complexity, intimacy and writing.


 They are both very different from each other so you shouldn't compare them.  What is linear disign anyway?
