Trying to find the simpilest way to compare JRPGs to WRPGs

Trying to find the simplest way to explain the differences between JRPGs, and WRPGs to someone, so far I have

JRPG - Despite a few roadblocks along the way, you save the world, Good triumphs over Evil, and everyone wins, stays alive, is happy, and the world is a better place.

WRPG - Despite harsh resistance, you save the world , you've done your job, won, with acceptable losses, and maintained the status que.

Any tips?

WRPG's are actually good?Guiltfeeder566

Heh.

JRPG: Characters personalities, often fantasy setting, often great story lines, often turn-based strategy

WRPG: Choices, freedom, often real time gameplay

I would break it down like that.

JRPG= ----stuff-----endboss-

WRPG= \/\/\/stuff\/\/\/enboss/\

JRPG - Characters close their eyes really tight, and open their mouths real wide when they smile / laugh

WRPG - Characters dont smile. They kill people who smile.

JRPG- player watches as events take place beyond his control. he is driven by his destiny. (storyline, cutscenes)

WRPG- Player often creates his own character and directs his destiny.

JRPG- you can only kill your enemies

WRPG- you can kill pretty much anyone you want
