RPGs are dead

***** attitude, unless you were gaming every day since early 90s you have more than a lifetime of games to enjoy

It's true, there's a wide catalogue of RPGs ... but like any "artistic" medium of human expression, 99% of it is ****. That said, most Codex refugees have already played the RPGs worth playing.

Japanese RPGs tend to be resistant to some parts of the western woke blights: Ugly strong wamen are rare (and if they exist they are villains, fittingly enough), the ESG gender crap is left at the door and their society as a whole rejects the whole "You must accept this much brown people as invaders immigrants this year!" propaganda the US and Europe is swamped with.

Japanese developers have sought to appeal more to Western markets, and the quality of their games has gone downhill as a result.

I don't want developers in Asia to change their games in an effort to appeal to Western markets.

Wandering Sword is one of the best indie RPGs I've played in recent years and it was made by a Chinese developer. Without an ounce of care given for Western sensibilities.

I don't recall seeing you in the Shard of Spring thread. Curious.

Thankfully you're not the arbiter of taste.

Gregz only plays games when other people tell him to, he is incapable of thinking on his own(same reason he murders dogs)

Nope. I believe in the power of crowdsourcing. I'm glad you guys are playing it. If I hear a big buzz, I might try it myself.

Its probably a bad game.
