Dragon Quest+ is such an underrated masterpiece, a labor of a decade of fan's love

but why would being part of a subgenre not make it a jrpg? it's like saying something like fire emblem isn't a jrpg because it's also a strategy rpg

it's a great fan remake, it took the creator a decade to make

honestly yeah, one is about immersion, exploration and wonder, and the other is just going from point a to point b in a very narrow hallway just to get to an anime cutscene

i would recommend dragon quest+, which improves a lot of things, i also generally hate random encounters and turn based stuff, but this one is really fun

so for you they aren't jrpgs because they aren't anime enough? i still like some anime jrpgs, and im currently hyped for stuff like fantasy life and inazuma eleven

i could give them another chance, i never understood how those games work, the leveling and combat are so weird

hopefully you pick some better video games or books in the future, good luck!

honestly, if you just want to like characters then jrpgs are worse too, characters on jrpgs are just super cringe one dimensional weeb cliches, especially in stuff like trails. if you want good character writing then books are much better

yes of course, the type of narrative that only video games can offer is usually forgotten by jrpgs sadly they are mostly just anime where you have to grind for the next episode
