We don't even know if this is 'save the world' yet and you are still judging it.

I said "Looks like...". It probably will be what I said anyway.

You don't even like RPGs yet you will post in forum topics about them




That's not true Riachu, he doesn't like JRPGs. He has shown an uncharacteristic love for WRPGs.

Who are writing the stories for these JRPGs? Do Japanese gamers even care about stories in their RPGs? Can't they write a JRPG story that isn't save the world? I try to like JRPGs as best as I can but it is hard when 90% of them have generic stories.

I'm the same way. For some reason I love to play RPGs. Or more correctly, I love to try out RPGs. But almost every time the story ends up disappointing me, and the gameplay isn't enough to carry me to the end of the game. So sick of being the teenage male protaganist who has to save the world with a spunky, yet affectionate female companion and a sidekick of some sort (whether human or creature).




oh come now....most games have a "save the world" type context, it's just not as explicitly stated as JRPGs. You're right though, I would like one that deviated a bit, even my favorite JRPG's still follow the "save the world" basic plot.
I suppose perhaps FFXII didn't have a save the world plot. It was more of a "save your country" kinda thing with a war context. Similar, but that's the farthest deviation I could think of off the top of my head.
edit: upon further thought, perhaps disgaea....I can't quite remember if that ever turned into a "save the world" thing.
