Why do developers think that role playing games need these things?
I doubt I'll even attempt a second playthrough of Persona 5, just due to how excruciating dealing with palaces is. It's the complete opposite of Persona 4 Golden.

Because roleplaying games consist more than just playing pretend. They have genre defining gameplay mechanics and design choices to them
>>376964151
Trans is a weird dead name, and too on the nose.

Mass Effect isn't an RPG. Try again cuck.

>pedophile casuals prefer grinding over acquiring skill with indepth mechanics.
Isn't there a mobile game you should be farming on right now?
>>376964151
Don't forget the terrible gameplay.

Even Nier had them.

Looks okay as long as they dont charge AAA price.

Do RPGs even bother with the RP part anymore?

Depends how you define RP.
>>376964591
Gameplay is the fatal flaw to WRPGs to me. Are there even 10 legitimately great boss fights in WRPGs?
>>376965654
Nah, CRPGs and WRPGs have traditionally been accepted to have shit gameplay but make up for it in some way or another. And on the JRPG side of things, weebs have genuinely convinced themselves that turn base is good
>>376965867
Turn based traditional (Final Fantasy, Pokemon) or just in general? Because grid turn based can be a lot of fun when done correctly. ATB is acceptable in my mind, but I can see why people don't like it.

PS2 era onward SMT is pretty good.
Most WRPGs would unironically be better in a visual novel type format.
>>376966494
Not a fan of it, honestly. Far too easy to exploit and makes a quarter of your battles one-round finishers for either side.
Now Devil Survivor was the shit. Grid turn based and short traditional battles that gave extra turns, but not as broken as something like SMTIV or P3-5

He wasn't wrong about Japanese games, but telling a Japanese fan that, then proceeding to laugh at that one fan, while faggots pile on, was disgusting.

Autism. It's nothing else but this.
