[QUOTE="BrunoBRS"] the witcher 2, a game developed in eastern europe, on the eastern side of the world, that follows the JRPG archetipe of "linear plot progression, well defined main character with clear motivations and personality", and yet it's a WRPG. it's like everything that isn't japan is the west.BrunoBRS

Witcher is very much an old school WRPG. It's nothing like your average JRPG. At all. If anything its something of an archetype. And at the risk of dragging this up again, you don't understand the east/west thing obviously. It's not a literal line down the world.

It's nothing to do with gamers. It's an ancient term that predates our rediscovery of america by over a millenia. We didn't invent or coin it. It's neither absurdly broken nor nonsensical if you bother reading up about it.

yeah it's weird how the line is drawn. technically us europeans are west to asians. But when you hear WRPG you think America, and we're not west to them :P

It should be called a middle role playing game. MRPG. There a new breed

You seriously don't know what you're talking about.

It's an AWESOME franchise, but The Witcher 2 sh1ts all over it. The Witcher 2 is the best WRPG of this gen.

I'm with Samus all the way. Could never get into Halo. Don't think it's poor just can't get into it. Metroid on the other hand. Woah.

Dark Souls was a bit overrated. I liked it but it's certainly not the RPG of the generation. I agree with you about Japan though but not about anime. Let them do what they want otherwise you end up with tributes to the west all the time. The world doesn't all need to be the same.

Deus Ex. Whilst not having the complexity of the first it definitely beat the second. I love the atmosphere too even if it has been ripped off several sources.

Loved it.

They've not announced the PS4 yet. Or in other words the PSU.

Very interesting subby. I think it will do just fine. I forsee an uncertain first month but business will soon pick up eventually.

Hopefully on the low side but not too low.
