Why? Because wRPGs are much more likely to allot more than 6-7 characters spaces to a name. I can't even make a dwarf named Axebeard in most jRPGs.

the best of the best are wrpgs.
However there are way more great and above average jrpgs. Also the wrpg genre has been getting stale for a while now. Skyrim aside, the genre has been pretty meh this gen. -- Pride. Passion. Excellence. Metal_DK Currently playing: Sengoku Rance, Starcraft II ... Copied to Clipboard!

Everytime you boot up Tactics Ogre, it not only revitalizes the genre each time, but the whole industry as well. Twice. And its power increases with every NIS release.

Actually I'm just upset that I finally found a jRPG that has a dwarf race, and I couldn't make one named Axebeard.

Neverwinter Nights is the best game of all time, because you have separate entry spaces for first name and surname.
So not only can you have a dwarf named Axebeard, you can have a dwarf named Axebeard Hammermoustache and people will actually come up to you and say "Good to see you, Mr. Hammermoustache!" -- "I'm Commander Shepard, and you're standing in the biggest library in Citadel Space.

not sure i agree. Well i agree that jrpgs are less plentiful, but wrpgs were much better in previous generations. The only ones this gen that id put on the level of a planescape, morrowind, daggerfall, baldur's gates, fallouts are fallout 3 and skyrim. -- Pride. Passion. Excellence.

Psh, mustaches are too wimpy for dwarves. The extra space needs to reference either rock or thunder in some way. Articuno2001 posted... psh, Halflings and Erdgeists superior. I never used a Dwarf in Class of Heroes. Eh, halflings and erdgeists are pretty different than dwarves. They were squishies more suited for back row thief/caster, while dwarves are front line tanks like devout or paladin. -- "The technique that bears her name guided my sword, and the courage she taught me guided my heart." ...
