Given that PC Gaming is getting big in Japan, I think the divide is going to shrink.

Difficult when most PC's are larger than the average Japanese home

that's an advantage, with good cable management you can curl up next to the PSU and then you don't need a space heater

Major selling point of the PS5 in Japan was that instead of building new apartment buildings they could just put a bunch of them on racks for people to live.

JRPG?

Expedition 33 is absolutely a JRPG, and a bangin’ one at that.  Do you also claim that Chained Echoes isn’t a JRPG, Sea of Stars?

Yes. They totally are not.  

Mostly because I hate how those in sale themselves as JRPGs rather than say “JRPG inspired RPG”.

Much like resetera, anything other than the location of the studio makes you think that?

[Jansen]

TIL Secret of Evermore isn't a JRPG because reasons 

[HaughtyFrank]

Isn't the answer that both are kind of right?

JRPG has been used to describe a very specific kind of game but also the origin of a game. 

JRPG just isn't really a useful descriptor anymore I'd say.

Maybe instead of promoting capitalism, colonialism and white supremacy y'all could organize to find more Global South RPGs:

I can’t, someone on the internet is wrong

[Uncle]

your character doesn't level up so no

It’s an rpg made in Japan therefore by your logic it must be a jrpg.  I think that’s preposterous but it is what it is

[Jansen]

I will never do anything to bolster a weebs argument. 

E33 is a jrpg you disgusting moeblob loving fuckfaces.

You understand that the French are the Uber Weebs, do you? 

[benji]

I could see playing a JewRPG but you'd never catch me playing a ZionistRPG. Which is basically what the output of people like Bethesda, inXile, Obsidian and Playground Games are now.

“Borderlands is a western RPG.”

[Besticus Maximus]

Guys I heard someone on the internet talked to a transformer and it first told him that he had to kill himself because he wanted to play cyberpunk then a few months later told him it had finished the game and had a really detailed critique, shits fucked up

[DocWager]

Does it look, and act like an anime, as well as from Japan? Then no, Claire whatever is not a JRPG. 

God, this place needs a cleaning as much as Era does these days.

I am conflicted about this. Mostly just because I've been told Bakula is a gigantic prick off-set and I don't really have any nostalgia for Enterprise.

By "I've been told" I assume he means he's read that Topher Grace anecdote.

At least they have the excuse of being French

Clair Obscur has more of a claim to JRPG than Final Fantasy 16.

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

I like both games.

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

Actually discussing video games on a video game forum? Fuck off.

JRPGs are like porn, you know it when you see it.

Libs will discuss anything as long as it distracts from the genocides they're doing.

[Potato]

Using the TTRPG as a reference point, JRPGs don't even qualify as RPGs, they're more like turn based strategy/adventure games. Now they're not even that.

Sub-genre warriors are fun to make fun of though.
