/v/, how can I into Jap games? Everytiem I try to get into anything from Nuke-Island I instantly cringe to death, but I've played most Western games worth playing and need more reality escape.
Are Japanese games actually good, or is it just a meme? How do I learn to like this stuff?

Try the older Map games.
Play these:
Dark Souls
Vanquish
Resident Evil 4
Super Metroid
Silent Hill
>I've played most Western games worth playing
I fucking doubt it.

JRPGs are meme as fuck story wise, is all about awkward shit, "feels", cliche save the world and le dark edgy backstory
what japan does well are action/action RPG games, those can have cheesy characters but they can be charming as opposite of some pretty boy with spiked hair exposing some pathetic attempt at drama for 50 hours

>my first game was cowadoody
>Liking western games
What's the appeal? I just can't do generic Tolkien or sci-fi WRPGs, I just can't. Nor cinematic, hollywood inspired F/TPS's
Alos I need really cathy music. Music is like half of a game for me. Games like No More Heroes or Metal Gear Rising are some of my favorites just because of the way the music meshes with the interactive nature of games. Can't get enough. Most non-indie western games I've played have the most sterile fucking soundtracks and I just can't stand to play them
There's exceptions of course. I fucking love Deus Ex, the only WRPG I've managed to finish
op is a faggot

Entry level shit. Any weebshit that isn't popular is complete garbage. Shit like Chrono Trigger or Ninja Gaiden Black
If you don't see the appeal in this then I guess japanese games aren't for you OP
