Japanese RPGs or Western RPGs?

[The Fat Bioware Nerd]

Which RPG genre, do you prefer Japanese RPGs or Western RPGs? I prefer Japanese RPGs because JRPGs are always released on consoles, you hardly ever see a Western RPG on a console and if you do it's exclusive to the X-Box.

I like good RPG's.

[Dreddz]

I generally prefer Japanese RPG's but this question puts me in the position to say I dislike one of the two, which I dont.

[Mirage]

Western RPGs because they're actually RPGs, unlike those japanese things. JRPGs interest me more though.

[Meat Puppet]

I’m a racist swine, so it’s Western RPGs for me.

[Rase]

Pretty much what Dreddz said, only substitute "Japanese" for "Western".

Western RPGs because they're actually RPGs, unlike those japanese things. JRPGs interest me more though.

That above meh.

I'm glad that we got the correct terminology in this thread... *remembers the old "US-RPG vs. J-RPG" topic*

You want me to try and pick between the Fallout games and Final Fantasy?

Well sir, I cannot.

Well sir, I cannot.

It is my firm belief, that thy hath the third possibility for that case.

[scrumpleberry]

I think they both have good games. But Japan has Grandia, Skies of Arcadia, and of course Final Fantasy.

I play more Japanese RPGs, but western ones can also be good.

Eoff > Blech
Japanese >Westrern

I enjoy both but for different reasons. JRPGs of late have been losing my interest as they are getting a bit too cliche and formulaic, and I really seem to prefer the branching paths of many Western RPGs. There are some great JRPGs though, so it really just depends on the game.
