Bg3 is actively crumbling under its own weight, just like crit role and various other fads.
When the first thing people associate your game with is gay shit, AI sloppa, a fricked ending because of rushed dev time and perhaps most importantly positive word of mouth that ends up leading to being exposed to those former examples, then you have a shit game
THIS! westerners so full of troony freaks and gays and other degens that they think game with troony sex and bestiality is so brave and strong therefore good even tho it is shit. nasty freaks who cut off their genitals and call themselves something they are not.
>Why can’t JRPGs be this good?
jRPGs stopped evolving years, even decades ago as pointed by this anon you can't improve copy pasting the same game 1 million times. You need to add to it. Even the Wizardry series themselves evolved with the cosmic trilogy of Wizardry 6, Wizardry 7 and Wizardry 8.
Any Shin Megami Tensei, you're missing out. Either Nocturne, Devil Survivor Overclocked, or Soul Hackers have game-over'd me many times.
And as a kid, Digimon World 2003 sent me to the start screen dozens of times.
Leftoid shills are known to accuse other people with things they are themselves guilty of.
Also they are extremely butthurt about the fact they can't actually ban people for interfering with their shilling.
Consider the following:
All woke trash games are review bombed with positive ratings by every single queer on the planet because it caters to them and they are perpetually stuck in culture war to own da chuds
I spent many hours into BG3 as well and I "regret" each one of them. Regret in a sense I wasn't having fun, but at least I got to learn just how bad games can be when done wrong and how clueless video game journalists are.

The opposite. JRPGs having set characters is the best thing they have over WRPGs, as it means they can actually write the game around a protagonist who can be more than "generic custom character 1435".
It's the gameplay and structural limitations and focus on grindability that otherwise make them weaker.
CheapRPGs largely died off while JRPGs had a huge resurgence in the 90s and 2000s before the shift to HD made them untenable investments outside of established franchises. They were never not evolving when it was still worth making them and you’d be hard pressed to run into the same kind of JRPG outside of the same franchise. CheapRPGs only stopped being niche when they dumped a bunch of money into them and mostly into advertising. They’ve changed far less in 30 years than JRPGs did in the 15 when they were profitable
JRPGs are designed to be beaten by 10-year olds, whereas basically all cRPGs have a teenage/adult target audience and thus can afford to have fights ask more out of you. It doesn't matter how good a JRPG's battle system is if it's all balanced around being able to be beaten by your little cousin. The notable JRPG exceptions are the ones that targeted a more "hardcore" audience like Etrian Odyssey and SMT: Nocturne.
Normally games have difficulty settings for this kind of stuff, it's just that difficulty settings in RPGs are distrusted for understandable reasons, and very few people have the energy left to replay a linear cinematics-and-story-heavy 40+ hours JRPGs just on a higher difficulty. Which is probably why JRPG devs never include them.
The JRPG that receive praise are the kid-friendly ones. Chrono Trigger is the most childish shit ever, and most JRPG fans put it in their Top Three list. The genre won't evolve past that level because its fans want something easygoing and story-driven. If there's to be anything "adult" in their games, it's romances and coomer stuff.
True they generally write their games to have a satisfying beginning middle and end rather than than a bunch of fluff that leads to a couple unfinished routes
The choice being >Yes >Yes but progressive >Yes slightly different >No
With the choices not really mattering anyway because even the route with the most “choices” has like 2 outcomes
>2 outcomes
And jrpgs have 0 since you're being railroaded into watching an anime unfold with little to no player choice or input. Maybe jrpgs fans would lose the inferiority complex they have toward real RPGs if they lost the label altogether and just called themselves Japanese visual novels. Nothing wrong with that btw, if you are a jrpg fan who just enjoys anime with the occasional player input.
homosexuals are disgusting sordid vile creatures and bg3 was made by such beasts.
stay away from it.
homosexual game made by homosexuals for homosexuals.
as shown here
This is another example. You barely even play a character in Persona games. Your interaction with characters amounts to "huh", "sure", "ok", "we've got to win" etc. There is no choice, you don't pick a class, you don't format a personality, the games have casts of companions that basically talk to themselves with streams of consciousness out loud in your presence and your interaction is basically "you can do it". And the character depth is so shallow, they are like childrens books, "being mean is bad :(, believing in friendship is good :)". They scratch an itch when you are in the mood but all JRPGs games scratch that same itch basically.
It is amazing that you think it is somehow different in bg3 when it might as well be a fricking jrpg with how linear it is and how little your input matters outside of having mechanical option to kill anyone.
It is not. There is exactly one choice that alters anything outside of epilogue slides and it is also entirely meaningless. Even if you include epilogue and gathered allies showcase before final battle it still has frick all of different outcomes, some shoestring budget indie attempts has more branching and end states.
I actually did, that is why all the sucking up to sven shitty softcore porn is so grating. >goblins vs druids and refugees
The only choice that even slightly matters, mostly because like good third portion of side content tied up to the refugee tiefling shenanigans. Which you lose with no replacement if you side with goblins, together with 2-4 companions for the privelege of having shitty drow paladin who doesn't even join immediately. >emperor vs orpheus
Entirely meaningless as you still have to tentacles up somebody >joining gortash as dark urge
He is killed in cutscene before the big setpiece fight and you lose a boss fight with him, which is a shit boss fight but still. >nightsong shit
Barely even plot relevant outside of companion story and being meat shield in ketheric fight
Because they all have infantile stories, with infantile characters, usually children that you're supposed to believe are men and women, saccharine levels of content, no death, no violence, no nuance, shonen cartoon villains and character development, no variation in style or setting between any of the games, always bright, childish mishmash of tech and magic, fluffy not-chocobos etc.
JRPGs are the most one note, repetitive games around. They are like the Japanese equivalent of the 90s/00s western FPS games or the recent BR clone nadir we just went through. None of this is even in comparison to BG3, all of these traits are tiresome and off-putting in isolation.
>Release Hotfix that breaks your game
I haven't played a single big JRPG release that is THIS buggy. In fact, most JRPG is playable day 1 without bugs. That is something western games need to step the frick up on.
Here's a good writeup on the absolute state of JRPG. The genre basically treats the gameplay as secondary. It's all about cashing in on lowest common denominator weebs and otaku by focusing on waifu, chara designs, visuals, seiyū, OST, etc. That's why the devs content with rehashing the same 4-homie-in-row combat system without bothering to innovate.
>Elden King cucked Xenoblade Censornicle 3 last year >Ballsy Guy 3 cucked Xenoblade Censornucicle 3 DLC and Zelda TikTok this year
Jarpiggers really couldn't catch a break lately
Thanks for replying to that post because now I realize this JRPG-obsessed schizo has been here for hours talking about JRPGs in a BG3 thread while defending his homosexual vampire idols.
Have you ever played a DQ, OP? Now imagine weaboos and otacucks who have been raised with this steady diet of braindead for decades. So when they actually try to play a real RPG for once, they end up shitting their pants and screaming, "THIS IS NOT LIKE MUH DQ, IT'S TOO HARD REEEEEEEEE!!!!!!"
Despite looking like it, Baldur's Gate wasn't made for homosexuals. I wish everyone would stop exaggerating and just think for a moment what a game truly made for homosexuals would look like and how little it would appeal to people in general, and certainly not sell as much as this one did.

Oh, I can complain about gameplay too, that's atricious for sure. The game only has a handful of classes. Compare that to Pathfinder games where you have tons of different options; those games don't have so good writing either, but at least they have this thing called character customization, which is essential for a CRPG. Same goes for spells, loot, everything; only tiny amount in BG3. Hell, BG3 doesn't even have levels, the characters stop progressing at level 12 before you reach the last chapter. The amount of abilities is also a joke, you have a tiny amount of reasonable choices and this is another example of how BG3 isn't really a game at all, it just pretends to be because it knows exactly what abilities you are going to pick. Because it doesn't give any other choices. Not a single challenging fight in the game. It's just fricking terrible in every aspect. The graphics are alright, although the game runs badly and had a major memory leak at least at launch.
Any person who likes vidya and who understands anything about RPGs will hate BG3. Absolutely and definitely.

I clearly said the game has 12 levels and you will reach the underwhelming level cap half-way into the game. The leveling system is so underwhelming it might as well not exist, that's the meaning, you illiterate frick. And having a decent progression system is one of the essentials any good RPG must have. BG3 doesn't even have that. It's fricking shit.
BG3 Twilight vampire homos are so utterly clueless that they don't even know what RPGs are made of and what a solid progression system consists of. You are literally morons. I can tell you are some neet with zero real life credentials. Nothing but homosexuality in you and that's why you defend this pathetic excuse of a game.

I'm not defending JRPGs you degreeless dimwit, I'm talking about BG3. You are the one talking about JRPGs, as if the quality of BG3 somehow depended on the quality of any other game. You can't stick to talking about BG3 because you know the game is shit, so you desperately have to try and change the topic because all you care about is shitposting. You claim people can't say bad things about BG3's gameplay or design when that is absolutely false. None of my points referred to JRPGs, I only mentioned Pathfinder games which are CRPGs.

You are so utterly stupid that I refuse you have any academic background, you mouthbreathing moron. You people are mental and deserve to live your lives as virgins with geeky glasses on your noses.

If you're roleplaying as a gay man that's on you. I know jrpgs enthusiasts also like to pretend they're women.
nta, but I've been playing Armored Core 6 and most JRPGs look like visual novel slop in comparison it's embarrassing
I wouldn't put any Fromsoft game in the jrpgs category, they're actual games so that would be insulting.

You never played BG3. In it, male companions come flirt with you even without asking. Of course this is your dream so you don't mind it. In JRPGs such would be a comedy segment, in your games it's the norm that's supposed to please the player. Go suck that Twilight homosexual vampire's wiener.

Not him, but you're not making any salient gameplay arguments, because attacking crpgs while defending jrpgs is hilarious from a gameplay standpoint. You're mostly repeating the same accusations about homosexualry when it's completely avoidable in game (but for some reason not for you since you chose to engage in it) and you even have the option to outright murder the homosexuals in question. Despite heavy propaganda, the immense majority of people find homosexualry distasteful at best, if it was the main focus of the game nobody would play it.

It's on YouTube, 4 mins 15 secs, very easy run too. Even BG1 took like 17 mins, BG3 is just so fricking bad.
Because jrpgs are a genre stuck in the past. After playing any modern rpg and even those made around 2010, jrpgs feel like a waste of time, saturday morning cartoon tier to play.
>It's better to be stuck in the Golden Era
You can't be stuck in the golden era, that's just called stagnation, which could be enough to please eternal manchildren losers but far below acceptable to anyone with standards.
FFV, a JRPG from the 90's, has a better and more extensive class system than BG3, an award-winning movie game from the 2020's. Bravely Default series continues this mockery.
It's a ridiculous class conflict spurred on by shitposters and discordgays. I like BG3 because it has a lot of elements from JRPGs that CRPGs usually lack, like well designed boss fights with multiple phases and reactions. Fake News.
The only thing BG3 did right was appealing to braindead redditors with the shitty writing, the game is complete dogshit after Act 1 and Act 1 is only good because of player input from early access.
Casual nip gaymers are legit scared when the game presents them with dialogue options that might change the outcome of the scene, no matter how small.
Filter steam reviews by japanese language and negative only, you'll see that that's one of the main complaints along the "gemupurei too confusing boku no andastando"
they're better and I'm tired of pretending like they're not

Why do you have to seethe about Jrpgs? Is it an inferiority complex?
cheap shock value is not good.
JRPGs are designed to be beaten by 10-year olds, whereas basically all cRPGs have a teenage/adult target audience and thus can afford to have fights ask more out of you. It doesn't matter how good a JRPG's battle system is if it's all balanced around being able to be beaten by your little cousin. The notable JRPG exceptions are the ones that targeted a more "hardcore" audience like Etrian Odyssey and SMT: Nocturne.
Normally games have difficulty settings for this kind of stuff, it's just that difficulty settings in RPGs are distrusted for understandable reasons, and very few people have the energy left to replay a linear cinematics-and-story-heavy 40+ hours JRPGs just on a higher difficulty.

i'm never trusting award shows ever again
Cause weeb audience is moron
Here's a good writeup on the absolute state of JRPG. The genre basically treats the gameplay as secondary. It's all about cashing in on lowest common denominator weebs and otaku by focusing on waifu, chara designs, visuals, seiyū, OST, etc. That's why the devs content with rehashing the same 4-homie-in-row combat system without bothering to innovate.
tldr west cucks seething
>Elden King cucked Xenoblade Censornicle 3 last year
>Ballsy Guy 3 cucked Xenoblade Censornucicle 3 DLC and Zelda TikTok this year
Jarpiggers really couldn't catch a break lately
This won't save you from the incoming ass rape.
JRPGs are barely vidyas, and what little gameplay they have is recycled from 30 years ago.
thank you for posting this webm so i know not to buy this game
Thanks for replying to that post because now I realize this JRPG-obsessed schizo has been here for hours talking about JRPGs in a BG3 thread while defending his homosexual vampire idols.
Have you ever played a DQ, OP? Now imagine weaboos and otacucks who have been raised with this steady diet of braindead for decades. So when they actually try to play a real RPG for once, they end up shitting their pants and screaming, "THIS IS NOT LIKE MUH DQ, IT'S TOO HARD REEEEEEEEE!!!!!!"
>asiatic troony having a meltdown
>homosexual diversity bestiality cuckoldry game
>good
nah I'll stick with my jarpiggies
Despite looking like it, Baldur's Gate wasn't made for homosexuals. I wish everyone would stop exaggerating and just think for a moment what a game truly made for homosexuals would look like and how little it would appeal to people in general, and certainly not sell as much as this one did.
I belong in the "likes good games" demographic and BG3 certainly doesn't appeal to my demographic.
Thank you for proving his point, anon.
If wanting games to be good is a sin, then by gods, am I guilty.
>likes good games
>likes jrpgs
Doesn't compute since jrpgs aren't games
Any game with a straight character isn't a game for a BG3-pig. Go have a seizure elsewhere.
>meanwhile persona 4 and ff7 forces you to be a cross dressing homosexual
reminder that jrpg homosexuals are double standard morons whose arguments shouldn't be taken seriously.
I like CRPGs, WRPGs, JRPGs, SRPGs, I like good games. BG3 isn't one of them, it's just a gay visual novel with bad writing.
>complains about gay shit instead of the gameplay
Yeah and I am Genghis Khan homosexual....you don't like vidya period.
Oh, I can complain about gameplay too, that's atricious for sure. The game only has a handful of classes. Compare that to Pathfinder games where you have tons of different options; those games don't have so good writing either, but at least they have this thing called character customization, which is essential for a CRPG. Same goes for spells, loot, everything; only tiny amount in BG3. Hell, BG3 doesn't even have levels, the characters stop progressing at level 12 before you reach the last chapter. The amount of abilities is also a joke, you have a tiny amount of reasonable choices and this is another example of how BG3 isn't really a game at all, it just pretends to be because it knows exactly what abilities you are going to pick. Because it doesn't give any other choices. Not a single challenging fight in the game. It's just fricking terrible in every aspect. The graphics are alright, although the game runs badly and had a major memory leak at least at launch.
Any person who likes vidya and who understands anything about RPGs will hate BG3. Absolutely and definitely.
>the game doesn't have levels because it has maximum level cap
What? Pajeet cannot do english.
I clearly said the game has 12 levels and you will reach the underwhelming level cap half-way into the game. The leveling system is so underwhelming it might as well not exist, that's the meaning, you illiterate frick. And having a decent progression system is one of the essentials any good RPG must have. BG3 doesn't even have that. It's fricking shit.
BG3 Twilight vampire homos are so utterly clueless that they don't even know what RPGs are made of and what a solid progression system consists of. You are literally morons. I can tell you are some neet with zero real life credentials. Nothing but homosexuality in you and that's why you defend this pathetic excuse of a game.
DO NOT REDEEM, SIR.
If you're roleplaying as a gay man that's on you. I know jrpgs enthusiasts also like to pretend they're women.
I wouldn't put any Fromsoft game in the jrpgs category, they're actual games so that would be insulting.
You never played BG3. In it, male companions come flirt with you even without asking. Of course this is your dream so you don't mind it. In JRPGs such would be a comedy segment, in your games it's the norm that's supposed to please the player. Go suck that Twilight homosexual vampire's wiener.
If you felt compelled to reciprocate male flirting you might be gay, just saying.
nta but you homosexuals like to dress up girls and take it in the ass just like your favourite protag Cloud.
Nobody here talks about JRPGs or FF7 but you. I am talking about a specific homosexual game, which is BG3, which this thread is about, not about any other game. Of course you will cry about any game that won't let you pick your pronouns like BG3 or pick your genitals, but that's irrelevant.
>Nobody here talks about JRPGs or FF7 but you
aww...I hit the little jarpiigu's nerve....don't worry I am sure getting your ass pounded like Cloud will make you feel better.
>You never played BG3. In it, male companions come flirt with you even without asking
No. You have to start the flirting. If you are flirting with them, you are gay.
Same guy with broken English.
Unlike you, I'm actually able to articulate my thoughts and clearly explain in gameplay-terms why the game is shit. And you have nothing to say to that, except these immature "insults," because you're an uneducated moron with zero clue. I refuse to believe you're an adult.
Not him, but you're not making any salient gameplay arguments, because attacking crpgs while defending jrpgs is hilarious from a gameplay standpoint. You're mostly repeating the same accusations about homosexualry when it's completely avoidable in game (but for some reason not for you since you chose to engage in it) and you even have the option to outright murder the homosexuals in question. Despite heavy propaganda, the immense majority of people find homosexualry distasteful at best, if it was the main focus of the game nobody would play it.
I'm not defending JRPGs you degreeless dimwit, I'm talking about BG3. You are the one talking about JRPGs, as if the quality of BG3 somehow depended on the quality of any other game. You can't stick to talking about BG3 because you know the game is shit, so you desperately have to try and change the topic because all you care about is shitposting. You claim people can't say bad things about BG3's gameplay or design when that is absolutely false. None of my points referred to JRPGs, I only mentioned Pathfinder games which are CRPGs.
>You're mostly repetaing the same accusations
Not once did I mention that in my gameplay-related post. Fricking read my post first before replying to me. You are so utterly stupid that I refuse you have any academic background, you mouthbreathing moron. You people are mental and deserve to live your lives as virgins with geeky glasses on your noses. Fricking clueless.
BG3 has no gameplay, you can speedrun it in 4 minutes. It's a joke.
Post video
It's on YouTube, 4 mins 15 secs, very easy run too. Even BG1 took like 17 mins, BG3 is just so fricking bad.
Link me to it
nta, but I've been playing Armored Core 6 and most JRPGs look like visual novel slop in comparison it's embarrassing
>"likes good games"
such as?
homosexuality isn't a proper demographic, it's insanity
Because the only roleplaying in a JRPG is choosing your party who all do the same thing anyway, western RPGs are actual RPGs
They are both bad.
JRPGs are way better than BG3.
Because jrpgs are a genre stuck in the past. After playing any modern rpg and even those made around 2010, jrpgs feel like a waste of time, saturday morning cartoon tier to play.
It's better to be stuck in the Golden Era than just casualize and LGBTize everything, like has happened with high budget WRPGs.
>It's better to be stuck in the Golden Era
You can't be stuck in the golden era, that's just called stagnation, which could be enough to please eternal manchildren losers but far below acceptable to anyone with standards.
What you're saying is not even true. Not a single genre has evolved in a way you seem to imply.
I don't care if you people shill Baldur's Gate 3.
What bothers me is that you pretend you like DnD games all of a sudden.
>all of a sudden
You're new. I can tell.
>BG3 is good because JRPGs are worse
FFV, a JRPG from the 90's, has a better and more extensive class system than BG3, an award-winning movie game from the 2020's. Bravely Default series continues this mockery.
It's a ridiculous class conflict spurred on by shitposters and discordgays. I like BG3 because it has a lot of elements from JRPGs that CRPGs usually lack, like well designed boss fights with multiple phases and reactions. Fake News.
>TGA 2023 is absolute funeral to Japanese game.
>No Japanese game won award this time
I see 3 right here
This game is awful though
its pretty great if you actually beat it, still better than most other jrpgs and lightyears beyond starfield shite
The only thing BG3 did right was appealing to braindead redditors with the shitty writing, the game is complete dogshit after Act 1 and Act 1 is only good because of player input from early access.
Casual nip gaymers are legit scared when the game presents them with dialogue options that might change the outcome of the scene, no matter how small.
Filter steam reviews by japanese language and negative only, you'll see that that's one of the main complaints along the "gemupurei too confusing boku no andastando"
