They mistakingly think it was influenced by some Western game even though it doesn't play like any. I honestly hate the way JRPG is used these days. If it doesn't mean RPG made in Japan then come up with a new label. From always felt Western tbh. Like, I played Armored Core 2, and aside from being about big robots (which is obviously a very Japanese thing) I could have sworn it was made by a Western company. Mostly because the movement sucks, but still. --- There's a difference between canon and not-stupid. <cite>RetuenOfDevsman posted [p:979975577] in What makes...
