    Oh, are those ARPGs? Sometimes the categories blur, I would have placed Tales games in JRPGs, which just shows that describing an entire genre on location gets confusing.

    That's why I said I lumped SRPGs and ARPGs together with JRPGs. I mean, FF Tactics is a JRPG, but also an SRPG. Same with KH being both ARPG and JRPG. So yeah.

    Officially Tales of are JRPG's and not ARPG's. I don't know why. But Star Ocean and KH are indeed ARPG's

    Strategy/tactical or action, although the two can have a lot of overlap. I went for strategy/tactical in the end!

    The first games I ever finished were JRPGs (Breath of Fire 2 and Shining Force 2) and I have probably finished more JRPGs by three times than my next most played genre. There's just something about them that sits perfectly with me. I can enjoy JRPGs that most people think are awful more than good or great games in other genres. Which probably makes me crazy.
