I mean, considering how broad the term is and just denotes the place the game comes from (which is still irrelevant because of Western JRPGs), yeah i wouldn't mind retiring the term since its so vague.
At this point, a jrpg is a game with stats and an anime looking aesthetic.
The PS2 era really did a number on gaming discourse huh. And no JRPG has always been a derogatory name for clear anti-Japanese bias. The japs admitted they saw it as such. Fricking Phil Fish’s infamous “Japanese games are shit” rant to a Japanese man.
yea coz the only ones actually making RPGs are japan
Why?
Because it doesn't actually mean anything in specific other than maybe "anime art style game"
No it means games that play like jrpgs
>apples mean fruits that taste like apples
Yup. If something tastes like an apple, it's probably an apple or apple flavoured
Is Kingdom Hearts a JRPG?
No its an action game
>Menu combat
>every JRPG character customization component
>Very Japanese in art and writing
JRPG is more about the pacing than a handful of mechanics.
It’s paced like an JRPG
Rpg elements. Not an rpg. The only rpgs are ff / dq and their clones.
Megaten is also JRPG, so are Tales. Tales is a JRPG with action mechanics.
Only because they were made in japan. Im not even trying to be a homosexual I really feel this way.
>The only rpgs are ff / dq and their clones.
moronic or bait
RPG element? You mean the entire fricking gameplay?
Do Kingdom Hearts and Dragon Quest play the same?
A “JRPG” just means a hand with anime style where combat involves stats to some extent.
It means an rpg made by Japan. A very useful label for people who exclusively play Japanese games.
I imagine only western troons would want to get rid of it because it lets people know to avoid their own products
No. Now shut up.

No

>moronic irrelevant question
Every time
The only AAA JRPG that exists in 2024 is a chinese mobile gacha.
the entire genre is dead and gone if you don't see it now you will in 5 more years. It's been downhill since FF12 (the peak)
i just use auto attack
my team is so powerful that everything dies easily and i can enjoy the story faster
no anybody that likes the genre know what the word means

Jarpigs are not real rpgs, so no.
