In the Civ games also conquest isn't the only way to win you can win through diplomacy, culture and being the first in space. In the Civ games you can research different technologies and build great wonders like the Great Wall of China, Taj Mahal etc. In Daisenryaku you can't do that.DrGeroCreation said: NoSurrender1690 said: Never played Daisenryaku but from looking at gameplay on Youtube I definitely don't like the look of the graphics and how it is mainly set during WW2 .

RPGs have the most pronounced culture difference in their genres, I agree, but to say that all other genres don't have differences that stem from the different cultures? Yeah, no. Then explain why there is no debate between a J-platformer vs a W-platformer. |

Then explain why there is no debate between a J-platformer vs a W-platformer. you can't disprove someones general statement by forcing them to argue against a different more specific statement... Historically, I'd call Flashback, Another World/Out of this world, OnEscapee, Blackthorne, Prince of Persia, and the lost Vikings "Western platformers." (there are others I never played -- so I didn't list them, but they would fit here also) Atmosphere wise, most of these vary quite wildly from the eastern platformers of the era. Similarly, the platform semantics of these games was quite different from traditional Japanese platforming. Many of these added puzzle elements in addition to the platforming and generally had more far more realistic physics and platforming segments than you'd find in eastern platformers of the era. Similarly, some modern incarnations reflect some of those design choices (modern prince of persias, tomb raiders, mirrors edge). There's also Psychonauts and Tiny and Big: Grampa's Leftovers which have the openworld/sandboxish nature also prevalent in Western RPGs. Of course you have exceptions like the games produced by Ubisoft Montpellier (Beyond Good and Evil, Rayman). As for why there is no debate of western vs eastern? Arguably because RPGs are a pervasive genre and other genres aren't. You can find about a thousand examples of RPGs on either side, but platformers and more generally other genres you can't. Over-saturation of the particular genre has led to a distinct polarization in the minds of players. You'd see similar effects and debate if Eastern FPSs became prevalent. |

| well Japanese games have their great qualities. i say that because i watched the anime and read the manga of a certain scientific railgun and a certain magical index. so i found they had games to it and low and behold i bought them or sorta bought them for psp. sure their in japanese and i cant read them but their set up the same. japanese games just to me show more feeling when u play them when they talk. just like u watch a subbed anime so much feeling. sorry for the length. |
| It's all a matter of preference. I prefer Japanese games to Western games. I grew up with them and they're familiar to me. Games like Mass Effect and Halo just don't do anything for me. |

| I've been a fan of Japanese games since the start of my gaming career. Most games I played as a kid were Japanese, like Super Mario World, Legend of Zelda A Link to the Past, MegaMan X, Aladdin, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV Turtles in Time etc. Even later on the PS1 I ended up being a bigger fan of the Japanese games, like Final Fantasy VII and IX, Breath of Fire IV, Bust A Groove/Move 2, Digimon World series, Metal Gear Solid etc. So yeah, it's kinda logical that I'm still more into Japanese games, mostly because I'm not that big of a FPS or RTS fan. I mean, I used to play Age of Empires II, Warcraft III, Battle for Middle Earth etc. and Civilization is still one of my favorite game series. And I do love the Borderland series and Far Cry 3. But the Japanese favorites just outnumber the western ones. Blame Square/Soft/Enix, Capcom, Nintendo and Konami. |
