CRPGs mean Computer RPGs or Classic RPGs. JRPGs mean Japanese RPGs. You wouldnt call Lunatic Dawn an American/European RPG just because it took inspiration from early D&D like games from those regions. |
It stands for computer RPG, I'm not sure when that "classic" misnomer began to pop-up.
As said, I would call it CRPG, not JRPG, cause in its structure and gameplay is very much that, akin to something like German Darklands from few years before it - I would never call it JRPG, even though it's made in Japan, just like I wouldn't call South Park WRPG just because it was made in US.
