          what he said and meant was that at one point in time some Japanese developers didn't like the term JRPG, because in their mind they were making RPGs, and the west differentiating them was seen negatively/discriminatory. And he explains that in their mind, they make RPGs, not JRPGs.

          Some shit got lost in translation, and of course journos need their clickbait headlines, but he has no issue with the term since nowadays is something to be proud of, it's just him reminiscing on a different era, from experience and people he's talked to who felt this way. Again, at one point in time.

            Yoshi, then and now, hated the term JRPG because he's a giant sellout who doesn't settle for a niche. His eyes were always on the likes of WoW and GTAV and GoT to emulate. He wanted those western cultural phenomenons. There is literally no basis that other devs were offended by JRPG term. In fact, Kamiya just came out and dunked all over Yoshi-Prick to his face.

                They really can't recognize that their guy is just a corporate manager whose idea of creativity begins and ends at "copy whatever is popular in the west right now". His entire claim to fame is creating a WoW clone! And that clone now has been completely stagnant in gameplay design for nearly ten years because innovation is an alien concept to Yoshida.

                Most of FFs sales come around launch. The only time that hasn't been the case is back when there were gaps between Japan, US and European releases giving big spikes. It'll be lucky if it reaches 6million lifetime.

          Anime's popularity in the west has also recovered a lot in years, and not all of it is down to just Isekaishit.

          I wouldn't expect a hack like Yoshida to understand that westerners enjoy stuff like Dorohedoro and CSM at least in part because of their Japanese-ness. He's deeply stuck in the Keiji Inafune mentality that Japanese media should be ashamed of itself.

          Yeah he didn't realise that the GoT audience wouldn't be convinced by the porcelain faced Final Fantasy characters no matter how gritty they made the setting.

      It literally isn't though. It's just a justification he made up in his head as to completely bastardize FF into a western action game. Even during the "dark ages", we routinely had JRPGs release to top marks all over the place. Persona and Xenoblade games come to mind.

      Even non-typical JRPGs such as Dark Souls and MH made it big through the years. Yoshi-Prick has no basis for that statement.

      While he is being silly. JRPG has never really meant anything mechanically (which is why people have never been able to agree on what it actually means), and the term only grew popular with the western media that used it to box in Japanese games to more easily disregard them while they were heavily shilling Bioware games or whatever was big at around the time of the millennium.

      WRPG and JRPG doesn't actually say anything about the games (outside of their origin) unlike the other terms.
      The terms used to be used almost exclusively to shill or slander. By the games media at least. Game consumers have kind of hopelessly tried to ascribe some kind of post-hoc definition to the terms. But it's been kind of pointless since they never had any definitions to begin with and no one can agree on anything. And trying to imply that a specific kind or style of game is representative of an entire region like that is fundamentally silly.

        >JRPG
        I mean, in most jrpgs there is literally no choice nor dialogue options, no class customization, no character creations. One could even argue that jrpgs are not even rpgs to begin with, that's why the term exist.
        And I'm not hating them, they are just a whole different thing.

      The difference is that when Sakaguchi made games that didn't even try to be Final Fantasy, they were still heavily reminiscent of Final Fantasy in spite of all the differences.

    Who is Yoshi-P? For the blind, he is darkness. For the hungry, he is an empty plate. For the thirsty, he is the desert. If Yoshi-P thinks, I disagree. If Yoshi-P speaks, I cover my ears. If Yoshi-P has a million haters, I am one of them. If Yoshi-P has ten haters, I am one of them. If Yoshi-P has only one hater, that is me. If Yoshi-P has no haters, I no longer exist. If the whole world is with Yoshi-P, I am against the whole world. I will hate Yoshi-P until my very last breath.

    >SE for the last 3 years: Final Fantasy XVI is the first true action RPG FF in the series!

    >Everyone called SE out on the lie, citing 17 other Action RPG FF's that preceded XVI and that XV is the first mainline FF to be Action based

    >SE continues to make that false claim about XVI up until June 22nd 2023
    >Game comes out and flops
    >Everyone shits on it for having barely any RPG mechanics at all and its Action system being extremely shallow and half baked

    >August 11th SE puts out a page on their website detailing 12 SE ARPGs
    >In it they now state FFXV is the first Action based combat ARPG in a mainline FF and no longer claim XVI is the first "true" action FF

    yoshitpisssisters... we lost to FFXV...

      XVI is the first true action mainline, commands are still there in XV, hell there's a tactical mode that pauses the game while menuing

        16 has no more action combat mechanics than xv does so no
        >but optional modes!

      IP count in FFXVI threads has always been low because nobody cares about the game.

    The game was doomed the moment they announced it wouldn't be packed with with a diverse cast of Black folk.

        Isn't he friends with the owner of the site?

        he rightfully shit on ffxv and that sent the local ffxv sperg into an autistic rage

        This makes a lot more sense.
