JRPGs

Just play fighting games and stop wanting other genres to change just because you developed autism

>7 individual actions you can make with one character
>Some of those actions open up to menus filled with other actions

Most WRPG's have 5 abilities max you can do, and you spam the same ones for 99% of the game.

>"waaahh I don't like this thing but I'm too retarded to explain why I don't like it so I'll use buzzwords to call it bad"
these threads need to be banned on sight

Not every jrpg is persona shit

P5s writing was so bad. I get what they were trying to do with the cast they wanted this group of misfits and outcasts but instead we got a bunch of autistic chuunis with noncompliants whk mindlessly hate adults and are never challenged on their views.

I really hated how bloodthirsty the crew were for everyone.

A lot of jrpgs can be completed within minimal grinding. Grinding is often just a mechanic to compensate or a lack of strategy or to avoid mastering the mechanics

Playing them on higher difficulties changes the game completely for me, you either get lucky or you dont, even if you did everything right. That sort of challenge used to annoy me but no i crave it

What, exactly, makes these any more simple than your average single-player FPS, which have been the most popular games in the last decade?

Its a classic style, if it ain't broke don't fix it.

Not all JRPGs have the same systems
They may all have the same interface but the underlying systems are very different

Wasn't positioning was something important in Xenoblade X? That and targeting bodyparts. It's been a while, and by WiiU is on the fritz.

beepzorz has never played a jRPG in his life

You could have posted a better example, Divinity is shallow as fuck.

They're fun.

Do you actually believe everyone that doesn't like jRPGs is beep?
obsessed
Isn't Xenoblade that simplistic videogame where you only have control over one character in your party?

Demon waifus are still waifus
It's okay that you don't enjoy those types of games anymore but you're being quite immature by declaring that they don't have any value just because you don't like them anymore

My favorite JRPG was Baten Kaitos and it had fairly unique gameplay.

You can control any party member in XBX.

They're just games that take out the reaction time based skill most games have in favor of minor strategy and memorization of enemy abilities. They can serve as a nice change of pace from the stress of other kinds of games.
Just play Fortnite or LoL if you need your reaction time zoomer fill.

Sometimes I wonder if people who make posts like these even played Persona 5

Good JRPGs are usually a case of ”better than the sum of its parts”, the gameplay usually isn’t *that* good, but when it is mixed with an well-paced story, good soundtrack, memorable locations and characters etc., it all comes together in a way that really keeps you playing on.

But yea, it’s also a genre full of missteps and bad games, made unbearable by horrible padding and overused stereotypes. While I like JRPGs when they are actually good, it’s one of those genres where I wouldn’t touch a mediocre product even with a ten-foot pole. I can play mediocre action games or shooters because I know that they are usually finished before they get boring, but JRPGs are always so long that they have be good from start to finish to be worth playing.

They didn't

SMT gameplay isn’t difficult, it just has larger consequences if you fuck something up during a battle.

jrpgs are bad because you literally need to grind grind grind, grinding every dungeon and before bosses or you don't stand a chance

it's just bad game design

Literally Git Gud

Well they are fun which you don't seem to know much about

Well every single JRPG since the PS3 gen has loli or moe waifu. JRPG has died after this gen. Games like Grandia, LoD, Seiken Densetsu, Suikoden, FF, Star Ocean, Jade Cocoon, Vabdal Hearts, Valkyrie profile and so on are dead. Enjoy your Fatlus or CompileHeart shitty waifu simulators.

grinding =/= git gud

Well to get that kind of overkill party, you'll have to carefully min max the class system and gear. Also prefights buff. It's not auto attack like FF15.

Are you retarded?

No you don't, and even minmaxing in Pathfinder's context is laughably simplistic.

Bitterness mostly.
I never got the war between JRPGs and WRPGs myself since some of my favorite games of all time fall into both.

I've been in the mood for a JRPG lately, and have Epic Battle Fantasy 4 and 5 in my library. Should I play 4 now, or wait until 5 gets ver2.0?

>Stacking a bunch of autolearned buffs like in any D&D based game is somehow rocket science and incredibly deep gameplay
This is what all RTwP games boil down to, prebuff and then watch a 10 second autobattle, at any point in the game.
Not even a hilariously unbalanced game like Kingmaker managed to change that.

wrpg-kun has been having a mental break down since he was exposed.

Admittedly I never got into WRPGs much compared to JRPGs, but then I guess it's more so I didn't really get into the CRPG subset. Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance, I played and I beat despite being a dumbed down hack-and-slash. Baldur's Gate itself? Too many other games in my backlog to make me safely approach without fearing i'd fuck it up or something.

It's just East v West tards not realizing that good shit doesn't have a consistent nation of origin

You wouldn't need to grind excessively if you were good

I mean how many JRPGs are just straight up pure turn-based nowadays that actually see mainstream success?

Attached: t99zlVL.png (1836x1032, 2.65M)

Anything is better than RTwP, even Pokemon combat.

only pokemon and persona. retards still think jRPG = turn based when more wRPGs are turn based or a shitty RTwP

The actual Baldur's Gate games play nothing like Dark Alliance did. They're pretty good if you grab a few mods to make the AI better like Sword Coast Stratagems.

Old JRPGs are some of the best games ever made. Final Fantasy 4 through 7, Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana 3, the list goes on and on. The genre has devolved so much over the years that it's almost funny in a very sad way.

JRPGs are for stressed out old men and retards, I never understood the appeal till I worked a job I absolutely hated. I still don’t understand the people who are actively engaged by the genre.

This. Now every JRPG now is total shit hated by everyone on this site. JRPGs after 6th gen are not real games. They're waifu simulators.

There is no reason for JRPGs to exist anymore. They were vehicles for types of story and interaction that weren't provided by other games

Now those types of stories and interactions are provided by other games. It's a pointless genre kept alive by japs who are *horrible* at video games and don't desire challenge/don't play multiplayer or anything

Several of Yea Forums‘s favorite games are JRPGs, though.

I was going to replay bahamut lagoon but haven't gotten around to it yet

Ni no kuni, I thought it would be the first out of 30 jrpgs I’ve tried in my life that I would actually finish but I’m loosing motivation 28 hours in, I have no idea why I keep playing this shitty genre thinking I’m going to like it.
