It's not so much an indicator of where the game was made, it's more of an indicator of play-style. There are American-made JRPGs out there.

That's why I questioned the origin of the name of the genre. Because since it isn't exclusive to Japan with those games, I figured it came from the origin of the genre.

On top of that, Action Rpgs were separates a bit back as well but no so much anymore. Because Japanese Action Rpgs used to mostly consist of hack n slash games while Most (most FP at the time some where TP) other Action Rpgs that were not from japan, even in other asian countries focused on being rpgs but having it in real time instead of using separate screens, or combined with dungeon crawler elements. For example Spial Doom and YS, or later examples, Secret of Mana and Ultima Underworld.

As I mentioned in the recently completed thread: I now renounce Chrono Trigger as my #1 favorite JRPG of all-time, and place in that spot Golden Sun: Dawn Dawn for DS. Awesome & epic storyline, great characters, great music and charming graphics, and a great mix of battles of puzzle-elements. The puzzle-elements were really well done, too, as good as Zelda puzzles.

I like it too but apparently people don't like this game for some reason. Very strange. It's the only GS I liked to.

Love it or hate it my favorite RPG is Beyond the Beyond for the PS1. Gives a nice challenge and the music was top notch for me. I haven't played too many RPG's so that may change once I start actually playing the games in my collection. If anyone has any recommendations I'm all ears.

I have yet to play it. I got about halfway through the 1st GS and was loving it... but got side tracked. :\

I really want to play them in order though.
