Language Barriers

I love Bravely Default to death. One of the best games ever, but what a horrible name. Maybe if they trended away from Literal translations and just tried to go with the lingo of the region, it would have a bit more appeal.

Just my own personal opinion of course.

Only gripe I have are the ones which include the cutesy loli characters. This is made so much worse by voice overs and hearing their annoying squeaky voices.

Yes, very true. And it seems Jrpg's have the most effeminate lead characters, its sometimes hard to take them seriously.

It would be interesting if they did the Nier Gestalt concept for more JRPGs. Recreating characters so we play as adults instead of a teenager trying to save the universe.

They aren't even trying anymore. So many generic mobile JRPG's. And, now Breath of Fire, my favorite JRPG, is now going mobile with the sixth game; even though it is a spinoff they are calling it "Breath of Fire 6" when it doesn't even have much relation to the first games other than a few similar character designs and one reoccurring character is announced so far, Nina, who doesn't seem at all like her other forms in the past games, and is heavy fan service along with other generic character designs they have shown so far.

Random encounters for sure. Holy shit man.. at least add repels like Pokemon.

This is getting a bit ridiculous now (the amount of articles on this game) I know it’s the new hot property and everyone’s talking about it, but sites and seeing this as an opportunity and jumping on the bandwagon for cheap clicks

Perhaps only approve big updates to games, such as: version 1.5 / version 2.0, etc not every little tweak to gameplay

Just an idea
