There is quite a few JRPGs that I can name off the top of the head that feature a very large cast of characters.
Infinite Undiscovery
Chrono Cross
Suikoden series
Radiata Stories
I'm sure there are many others. I feel that too many characters leads to a generic cast. However, I do notice most of these games focus a lot more on a set few characters. The others due to their sheer magnitude don't really have the time to be developed.
How do you feel about this issue? Do you think having an over abundance of characters is detrimental to a game?
