Of course there is a cultural difference. In the west we are in love with this whole moral choice issue, where you can choose between good or evil. This simply isn't the case in Japan where the good side is expected to prevail no matter what. I notice you are not complaining about the influx of teamplay in western games be it online coop or controling NPC chars. This is a very Japanese trait that has been of great benifit for western games. Obviously in an ideal world we could take the best parts of both cultures and combine them to create a better game, but this isn't happening just yet.


You mean like in the early pc Ultima games?  You know the ones that predate Japanese rpgs and in which they got most of their core ideas from?
