JRPGs:
focus on gameplay
skippable cutscenes
Interactive movies:
focus on cutscenes
little to no gameplay

Okay.

>JRPGs:

lmao
>>382917148
JRPGs usually have actual gameplay to accompany the hours of story.

>I've never played a JRPG in my life
>two games represent an entire genre
>>382917602
Okay, of the hundreds of hours of playtime a JRPG offers, how much of it is stupid cutscenes? Now of the 10 hours that a 'cinematic' offers, how much is cutscenes?

I don't consider fiddling with DVD menus to be exciting gameplay.
>>382917209
I am
>>382917835
Why don't you play a fighting game, arpg anon? Don't tell me you find actual gameplay too hard
>>382917835

sht thread m8
>>382918198
I do, they're rad.
>>382918238
Gameplay doesn't count if it's shit, like a walking simulator.

It's like this guy found an unpublished Might & Magic game in a time capsule and is sharing it with us all.

Why is kotor2 so high but kotor so low? I just bought kotor in the steam sale but not kotor 2 :(
>>382919595
Because of Obsidrones: they heap praises upon the game's """deep""" writing whereas those with the ability to read books scoff at it. Kotor 2 is a buggy, unfinished mess.
>>382918831
Holy fuck this is a shitty list
Anyone got the the pdf for the ffxiv book?
>>382923035
>not buying it
>>382917148
We like jrpgs like DQIII where story is nonexistent and gameplay is the focus.
>>382918831
>not playing both
You don't like rpgs it seems.

So does WRPG. Really, JRPG gameplay is shit by default. Go play Expedition Viking, it's better than all the JRPG released so far or wait for Grimoire for epic Neanderthal fantasy RPG.
>>382924216
WRPG gameplay is also shit by default.

>accustomed to classic RPGs such as the Wizardry, Ultima, and the Dark Sun games
>look down upon simplified Japanese RPGs which took Western classics and butchered them to appeal to the casual audience
>uurf duurf u no real gamer unless u lower standards to my level of hurr durr intellect!!!!!!
I love RPGs, son. It's the Japanese ones which are generally shit.
>>382918831
Shit list compiled by a retard who hasn't played most of these games.
>>382924216
He says as if any classic WRPG has great gameplay
>>382917474
>JRPGs
>Focus on gameplay
The only JRPGs I've played with exciting gameplay have been:
>The World Ends With You
>Xenosaga 2 (Too bad it sucks)
>Pokemon in general
>Final Fantasy VIII (Only of Triple Triad and that it's easy to min-max characters to kill everything in one shot)
>Final Fantasy XI and XIV
>Chrono Trigger
>Barkley: Shut up and Jam Gaiden
Otherwise, they've been pretty shit. Not that I can say much more for WRPGs, which normally have combat systems that consist of "Walk at the enemy and hit A, sometimes cast a spell with B". The only WRPGs that are any good are the ones with FPS mechanics attached to them (Deus Ex, System Shock, Ect).
>>382925138
Kill yourself
>>382925138
>>Xenosaga 2
Nigga Xenosaga III was WAY better.
The entire RPG genre and all of its sub genres are trash. Devoid of skill, interactivity, exciting gameplay, and only serve to tell a mediocre story and show interactions between cliched and shallow characters. Yes, I've played that game you're going to claim "did it right". No, It didn't, I've been playing these games ever since their inception.
The only RPGs that have ever managed to pull off a good video game are Souls and that's only because of their extremely superficial use of the genre.
