      I should really give that series a try but I don't particularly like turn base and hate time management / calendar systems.

    American anti-asian racism in the 2000s, the switch to realtime 3D rendered environments and full voice acting, Sega dying and being replaced by Xbox, S-E's poor leadership, Sony moving under californian leadership, the rise of gacha economics etc.

    It's hard to sell the same game but worse than the culmination of having played previous jrpgs
    thus because you have fun it reduces the value of the next thing
    so the problem is making people do the same thing twice and sometimes that can be solved with new visuals and a new story, but it ends up being the same visuals and the same stories or worse than the mean.
    I don't think it can be fixed, I just don't believe it can be.

    They got stale and stopped selling as much as they used to and since they are expensive to make they stopped making them, now only 10 or less JRPG series remain
    Honestly Wizardry clones/DRPGs are better and will likely outlive regular JRPGs in the end, which is really funny

    Unironically Squeenix did. Imagine being the no #1 Jrpg company, and instead of accepting your place and managing shareholder expectation, you get the israeli hubris to tell your customers that they're wrong, your old product is shit and now they need to embrace action slop. That's literally what they did, they fricked their own product. The audience for turnbased games hasn't changed, just the greed of squeenix. They deserve to die.

    Turn-based has been (mostly) stagnant for decades and real-time is inevitably going to draw the unfavorable comparison between third person action where the combat systems are deeper. It also doesn't help that instead of writing a compelling story most companies lean on waifuhomosexualry to sell their slop.

    I'd be much happier with the genre if there were more yearly/every two years major releases for the franchises I like
    the reason I fell of of Final Fantasy was because it took 5+ years to make anything after FF10, and the end result wasn't any better than the ones that were "rushed" during that golden age of ff7-ff12 or so
    Trails is way better and doesn't have to have the best graphics
    it's got the best story, the best music, the best gameplay, and it triggers troons on Ganker when I mention it.
