He thinks jrpgs are superior to wrpgs
They are now since WRPGs are shit nowadays.
come back with an wrpg that isn't samey tolkienish fantasy game about knights and wizards
>he thinks glarb bloork troghtorm jumanji grahlarth
There are still jrpgs? On what? Maybe some handhelds and an occassional FF or Persona. Other than that, I thought they died off somewhere after the PS2 era.
Fallout
Arcanum
Planescape
Pathologic
VMTB
Morrowind
Deus Ex

woody sure is wild
>none are recent games
lmao
Some are though.
name one jrpg that actually deserves the r in rpg. most games I've seen would be more suitably described as action games with turn based / real time combat and light character progression / customization.
show me one game that's actually meant to be role played it.
He didn't ask for recent ones though. Not like JRPG's are any better these days, in fact I can't think of any aside from SMT or Persona
>a recent game is one that came out this month
A new Deus Ex came out last year, dude.
>backpedaling
Damn....really makes you think
and ot was shit
Old wrpgs were a force to be reckoned with. Newer shit lacks the soul that the older games had. And let's face it, the hollywoodization of the genre ruined it for good.
No longer are we free from political agenda in a fucking video game, it is the core driving force most of the western game devs, and as such, leads to very poor mechanics and even worse story telling.
WRPGs = wannabe visual novels
JRPGs = anime with stats
>he thinks
>WRPGs = wannabe visual novels
As opposed to JRPG's which are literally visual novels?
why is that pencil laughing

Before anyone asks, these characters actually aren't traps.
no replies. thought so. fucking weebs
Are those actually traps?
jrpgs are weird in that you don't have a blank slate character whom you can customize like traditional rpgs. the roles that exist are predetermined by characters and you unlikely can't change them. the closest to role playing would be picking and choosing which character (role) you want in your party.
Wow, could these characters actually be males in a female disguise?
>>he thinks jrpgs are superior to wrpgs
True that, still waiting for a jrpg that can surpass Gothic 2.
Which is never
no one would ask
Sup Forums knows every trap by name
then stop calling them role playing games.
call them action adventure games or something.
What are you even talking about? Most JRPGs are split between either party based systems or job/class systems with job/class systems also having the sub-system styles of weapon based class systems for games where you don't get a party.
From a purely mechanical stand point most JRPGs actually let you do more as a player than WRPGs.
Childhood is loving jrpgs. Adulthood is realizing wrpgs are superior in every way.
most jrpg class systems are shallow. wrpgs allow better customization.
>childhood is loving wrpgs
>adulthood is realizing you're going to spend 1000 hours trying to fix everything wrong with that wrpg from the shitty UI to the ugly characters and bland world aesthetics to trying to make the bare bones game systems fun to play and then 2 hours actually playing
No they're lolis, it's an edit
>you will never be a cute trap
Customization is meaningless when everything plays exactly the same.
They are for sure my man
this
Doing all that repairing is autism not adulthood. Just live with the sub par UI and get on with it.
Jeez user just drive the broken car. Who cares?
nope. even if that was true, jrpgs are far worse in that regard.
Reminder that the devs of the first JRPG ever made, Dragon Quest, openly stated on record that they made it for people too retarded to play WRPGs.
Well at the time Western RPGs were things like converted D&D to computer form, and could be rather complex. As a whole WRPGs have really shifted from that towards a simpler state.
Reminder: WRPGfags need to stop pretending they know moon. The interview was about people not being able to play things like D&D and other pen and paper RPGs easily. DQ predates the vast majority of WRPG franchises and even the ones that do predate DQ didn't arrive in Japan until after DQ even existed.
Mmmmmm nope, both the devs and the publishers have stated on multiple occasion have stated DQ's success was due to catering to a more casual crowd.
>He thinks his opinion is superior to any other opinion
On the bright side, OP is always a faggot.
Actually I fixed my car while user was spending hours installing skyrim mod to give his companion bigger tiddies. See what I mean? You care. Someone has to care...
I'm interested in boss-fights, dungeon crawling and being challenged so I prefer JRPGs.
I don't think WRPGs are bad by any means, I just don't like visual novels.
You mean like all those Shadowrun games?
The best ones are JRPGs that try to be WRPGs.
>dark souls
>trying to be a WRPG
it just took gritty 80s and 90s action JRPGs and brought them to the modern era.
Fallout 1 and 2 > Any JRPG ever
In fact any WRPG too.

Yeah, yeah, just keep babblin'. It's western to the core.
They are both shit nowadays.
With each genre having an actual good game very far and few between, like Dark Souls and New Vegas.
>DaS
>wrpg
Kek
Learn to read dumbass weeb
In terms of choice&consequence mechanics, sure, but there are a few JRPGs I consider to be better overall, like Suikoden, Arc the Lad II or even Chrono Trigger.
New Vegas was the WRPG I mentioned dongus, DaS was my example for a recent good JRPG.
>wrpgs are visual novels
Literally what?
Actually, Suikoden was one of the best RPGs I've ever played full stop, but I only played the first two. Whatever happened to that franchise? Is it still around and good?
>DaS
>JRPG
You´re not even trying, right kiddo?
Maybe he's thinking of Mass Effect? I don't know. Visual novel isn't really what comes to mind when I play most WRPGs.
I like both
>Caring which is superior
I'm glad I'm not a faggot
>dark souls is the best RPG in history of videogames
So yes
underrated post
kys yourself
Kid please, i don´t even like jrpg even after playing some of the most "praised" ones. Sure there are some interesting points but still is quite predictable.
CRPG are always superior and usually they mix western and eastern thematics, don´t be so simple you´re not talking with your kindergarden friends now.
Dark souls babies should learn to shut the fuck up
>acolytes of a new god
Holy shit this is atmosphere kino. So dark and forbidding. I remember the first time I went to the church, did not expect to see mutants there
Why did you put "praised" in quotations? Are they not actually praised?
I hate both
This is a joke, right?
Damn dude. CRPG's have such good artstyles, almost 20 years ago and it Fallout 1 still looks fucking amazing.
Yeah but CRPGs aren't fun. Skipping the gameplay is seen as a reward in those games.
>Skipping the gameplay is seen as a reward in those games.
Which ones? The only one I can think of is Planescape. I mean JRPG's aren't really either. Turn based combat sucks balls and the only JRPG where I actually didn't mind the combat was CT.
>CRPG's have such good artstyles
I wouldn't generalize like that. Some have aged like milk. Just look at the character sprites for most Infinity Engine games. They look like glitches.
Learn what "both" means and come back playing old school daddy like anyone cares
>Some have aged like milk
Which ones? I should have been more clear too, I mean strictly Infinity Engine ones. The only IE title I believe aged visually bad was BG1.
It's obviously bait, that's not to say Dark Souls isn't good though.
>fo2
>above deus ex and planetscape torment
The holy trinity of rpgs are fo1 and the other two I mentioned.
Name 5 good CRPG boss fights. I'm pretty sure Nocturne alone has more good boss battles than the CRPG genre.
>playing rpgs
Literally the cuck's genre.
Grow the fuck up and play some MOBA or FPS, you cuckchildren
Japanese games are in general superior to Western games. That's not to say Western games can't be enjoyable once in a blue moon, but in general I'd rather play a weeb game.
Fallout 2 is still great, what the fuck is up with this meme of 2 being bad? Sure it's more silly but it's honestly still a masterpiece. People really do exaggerate when it comes to "MUH REFERENCES".
Jap games need to branch out, though. I want some weeb FPS and open world Ubisoft ripoffs shit.
Japs can't do first person unless it's a dungeon crawler.
I hate it when Sup Forumsirgins like OP and you try to push your opinions as fact.
>Fallout 2 is not one of the three best RPGs in existence
>WHAT'S WITH THIS FUCKING NIGGERMEMECANCER OF FALLOUT 2 BEING BAD???
Fallout 2 is better than Deus Ex though
They are praised by some fans and hated by the other half. You could take for instance FFVII and VI.
You don´t even know how to answer don´t you.
>WRPG & JRPG
>I point out that DaS is not W neither J-RPG
>STFU WEEB L2READ LMAO
>Kid you are making a big mistake and you´re even rejoicing in your ignorance
>kek learn what both means old school daddy man i dont even care haha!1!one
Yes... you´ve won this you (you) now keep playing your shitty games and watching some e-celeb that could explain to you anything about vidya genres.
Quake 3, Deus Ex, Fallout 1, UT 99, and Thief 2 > anything Japan has ever created
Fallout 2 is objectively better than 1.
This comment enrage me, you can be a cute trap if you want, boy... go to gym and start working your ass... hormones help too
All this damage control because you can't fucking read, truly laughable
>I point out that DaS is not W neither J-RPG
It's a JRPG though.
>he hasn't played phantasy star IV
It doesn't count because I like it so I'll do mental gymnastics to prove it isn't.
