I prefer console over PC and honestly don't think you can go wrong with either Xbox or PS5.

I’ll never forget my ratchet and clank days…….

Mario maker 2 on the switch did that. I bought the game for $80 cad, and then I had to buy Nintendo switch online to actually play people's online courses. It does make sense, but pisses me the fuck off

I think the Nemesis System could have been great in a Star Wars game. Specifically, a new Bounty Hunter game.

Maybe I'll try it out again, first time round I was bored out my mind.

People keep buying

True, but that's a matter of distinction. If two regional variants of something aren't significantly different from one another, specifying the region doesn't make sense. It doesn't offer anything. There are plenty of foods which we don't assign origins to because they're generic such that no significant regional styles have developed, or they've become so "universal" that specifying a style is only done when called for, not in general.

Game genre's are similar - no, there is no distinctly JFighter or JPlatformer, but that's because there's no significant variation on the matter. Either there aren't enough entries to constitute a separate genre or subgenre, or there's simply not enough of a difference to separately categorize it. A whole genre will have multiple series from multiple producers, which the JRPG qualifies for. Mario, Castlevania, Metroid - these are just singular franchises, while the JRPG has a plethora of IPs, multiple similar touchstones, and style that is both distinct from western RPGs, and generally shared among most entries.

It's a legitimate distinction with a significant presence in the gaming landscape.

Buuuuuuut... as with all things, especially linguistic, tradition has outsized influence. We call things JRPGs because we've called them that for decades now, and will continue calling them that for as long as civilization stands. But... that's not a bad thing. It's a descriptive name that sets a reasonable expectation, same as any genre.

They shpuld license it

This is true. Nobody called the PS1 classic RPGs JRPGs 20 years ago. That term started during the PS3 & 360 era. I use RPG.

In my opinion? Lots of bad rep.

So?I like playing it like this

Thank you :)

It's 1 and 2 for me, but they're all great imo :3

Okay

And you as well! :)

You're welcome, take care! :)

Ahhhh Quest for Booty was fun! Crack in Time is probably the best game in the series but I can't help but forever love Going Commando because it was my first. :)

PC, and all the porn.

You’re erasing the entire point of a roleplaying game. It’s not meant for you to do everything.

I appreciate that very much, thank you buddy!

I dont want locked content

Thanks fren <3 I know my dad really enjoyed Quest For Booty as well, and also A Crack In Time :)

What’s the point of that

I had never thought about it but it makes sense. And it's a little scary really how easily terms slip into our general lexicon without ever really pondering how it can actually be received by the subject of the term.

A good learning opportunity to improve ourselves.
