    what a shitty list

    no etrian
    no generation of chaos
    no fire emblem
    no 100 witches

    just generic crap from the west mostly

      western RPGs have been better then Jrpgs for a long time now… get with the program.

      Monster hunter, Etrian Odyssey, Fire Emblem, Shin Megami Tensei, Bravely Default, Ni No Kuni, (rebuying ps3 when this releases-sold it when I finished portal2), etc

      Both wrpgs and jrpgs have their pros and cons, I personally prefer jrpgs but that’s just me I suppose, in fact the last wrpg I genuinely enjoyed was Neverwinter nights, great game.

      @curtis HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

      maybe in your dreams. Jrpgs have basically crushed wrpgs every year

      I mean seriously even if we take a snap shot of first quarter 2013

      etrian IV, xillia, ni no kuni, generation of chaos VI, fire emblem vs what on the wrpg side? a southpark rpg by a bankrupt dev?

      Maybe lately, but this is only because JRPGs have somewhat dipped in quality (it used to be the case that almost all were awesome), and WRPGs in the last 10 years have FINALLY become worth playing (Planescape Torment was good though). I think it’s because, like JRPGs, they actually focus on a story, rather than just creating a world and a lot of things to kill. Gone are the non-existent, paper-thin, cliche and beyond forgettable stories of WRPGs (Baulder’s Gate I’m looking at you), replaced with well-written epics.

    mediocre list, and the first thing about RPGs dieing out or being less significant? are you crazy?
    RPGs are the 2nd best selling and most popular genre of games. I guess skyrim was bad now or sold little? the problem is many RPGs are mediocore, too short, or boring to play/buggy.

    Look at gothic 4 arcania, it could have been ok but it only had like 15 FPS on xbox so it was unplayable. Tales of Vesperia could have been good but the game was 1 giant quest, with little else to do except the main story.
    Rainbow moon was a grind and dragged itself out and was mostly boring turnbased combat.

    on the other hand, we got Skyrim which is the best RPG this gen. Fallout 3 and new vegas were pretty good as well and refreshing since it was a different setting then most RPGs.
    Mass effect, though a mediocore game, has probably the best scifi story line of this gen, mass effect rivals star trek and starwars as Sci fi story lines.
    Dragon age origins was another OK game with an epic story.

    What a crappy list!! Most look like JRPG’s which I ferverently abhor!!
    that aside – the featured names look more like a sell attempt of JRPG’s rather than a genuine attempt at comipiling a list

    Why does it seem like the article demands a “real time combat system” ??? It’s final fantasy… Final Fantasy = Active time battle, turn based combat. If they do a real time system then awesome, if they do a turn based then awesome.
