Being a RPG player since the days of FF1, the basic RPG with a very basic turn base battle system.
I did enjoy it very much during that time, albeit my understanding of Jap at that time is zero.

But over the years, RPGs has evolved into something new, complicated story, complicated battle, beautiful CGs & etc
which I find myself attracted lesser & lesser to them, bought, played for a while, bored & sold them off.
Now I'm getting lesser faiths in RPGs, especially the JRPGs.

So let's share what annoys you the most in RPGs

LOL, forgot some prefer linear story than open world

Well, seems like JRPGs is already way past it's golden age, entering it's dawn of an era

well, that's the differences between the west & east lor...

east already used to anime style, they can't get used to western style of realistic "ugly" characters
same thing with the west, they can't get used to underage kids with huge eyes, spiky hair waving huge sword saving the world with loli and a 40" D cup bombshell

Well, since I basically grew up playing both west & east RPGs, so I dun hav issues with the character/world designs

anyway, wRPGs not only post apocalyptic war or ancient medieval time lar...
KOTOR and Mass Effects are futuristic mah, and since most of the wRPGs are based on D&D style, hence mostly are ancient medieval or fantasy themed

I see some guys dun mind uber hard boss

for me, uber hard boss in jRPG is one of the major turn off,
after days of grinding to level max already to challenge the boss, then only kena wipe out in a few seconds
if didn't kena wipe out then you need hours just to defeat that boss

good examples are the Ultima weapons from the FF

Up till today I'm still wondering why the heck they call it "Knights of the Round"??
aren't it suppose to be Knights of the Round TABLE?
Missing in translation? or the game got character limitation?

why? nothing related mah
can't remember how many CDs it got
if original are 3 only, i dun mind if they release it in 4 CDs, makes no difference

quote from someone

Eternal Sonata is as ETERNAL as the FINAL in Final Fantasy 13

yeah... hated those type of characters as well... they are kinda stereotyped into JRPG already
that's why now I'm more into western RPG where you're the hero's personalities, and you control the outcome by your own action

the name Infininite Undiscovery already left me scratching me head there
this game only lasted me 30min... then off it goes in my garage sales
