Is it me or does every modern Japanese game (that's not a visual novel and not made by Nintendo) basically boil down to...

Adventure games died with kings quest thank god

You don't know what a hack n slash is

To a BAD hack and slash.

Not the guy you're talking to but a game where you press buttons on a controller to hack and slash things in action-based combat is a hack and slash in my book.

There are a million western RPGs, strategy games, sims, etc. that contradict you.

Didn't know a turn based JRPG was a hack and slash. Who would've thunk.

Kind of agree. It'd be nice to see both western and Japanese action games be more bold with their gameplay. Games like Resonance of Fate, Hybrid Heaven and God Hand are good examples I think of what devs could do instead of the normal hack and slash gameplay style.

That's not a bad thing. Hack n' slash when done right, is ALWAYS good times.

Don't be fooled by turn based JRPG cucks lies. All of they're precious “thinking” JRPGs can either be easily beaten with just using physical attacks or an elemental spell and heals or some other shit mechanic that can nuke an enemy in one hit. They'll cry how “modern game are cinematic garbage” but they'll defend cinematic garbage like summons and spells and slow ass shit camera pans because “it's old school”. They'll cry how “modern games are empty” when all of their old JRPGs have literally empty maps and dungeons. Kek. Grow up and diversify faggots. Imagine seething so hard about games that doesn't pander to your favourite combat system.

Now I want a Dragon Quest visual novel

Try playing SaGa next time

Your webm clearly shows action-based combat.

>any game that requires pressing more than 1 button every 10 minutes is a button masher

Nothing wrong with hack and slash. Kill yourself

Japanese games are way more creative than your shitty streamlined garbage. Westfags literally play the same god damn game every time they go out and buy a new release.

Not when they hardly make anything but third person action games.

How does it feel to be wrong? Most of these nippon hack n slash' games have more depth than the bullshit fast food gaming that's produced by the rest of these mooks

>what is persona
>what is pokemon

>>what is persona
Not a game, for starters.

At least have the decency to mention something good, like Silent Storm 2.
You nigger.

I'm an hour late but I do hope someone will read this.
Gamepads cause this problem and even KB+M to an extent as well.
Ubiquitous controller design across all platforms have lead to a sort of "solved" control scheme where the greatest difference between similar titles is the button arrangement. Nearly all 3rd and first person games control movement with the left stick and camera with the right. The face buttons between games generally carry similar actions like jumping or using some sort of equipment possibly opening up a menu as well. The triggers are relegated to shooting, ADS, and grenades in most shooters and function similarly in fantasy games like elder scrolls. For racing games they are usually acceleration or reverse of changing the camera position. I can go on and on and point out the similarities between tons of games but what you'll find is that pretty much every game just jumbles all of these controls around to different places on the controller. This is why nintendo is so dedicated to reinventing the controller nearly every single console generation. Humans have 10 digits normally and let's assume you play claw on both hands (idk anyone who actually does this) and use a seperate digit for bumper and trigger then at the absolute MOST a human is only using 8 digits of those 10. When I play I use 3 fingers with my right and only 2 with my left and everyone plays differently but my point is that every game needs to fit on a control pad and needs to be accessible to the average user. And if your game doesn't fit into that tight design philosophy your game isn't going to reach a wide market because no one wants to buy peripherals to play your game. The result is a shit ton of games that all feel and play the same.

Japs and weebs just want to watch sexy girls and flashy effects. Why bother making a good game if your target audience doesn’t care

So you don't know what a hack and slash is. That's like saying any game where you shoot is an FPS to me.

Zoomer mad his Add won't let him play Jrpgs.

what are turn based games
what are side scrollers/platformers
what are eroge
what are SHMUPS
what are racing games

All better than anything Japan ever made.

japanese devs are hacks. they churn out soulless garbage just like they do with anime.
