that or
JRPG's aren't RPGs

everytime I see a comment like that I die a little inside, a little bit of my childhood slips away and I lose a little faith in (wait for it) Gamers and gaming in general.
I agree with you expect for the jrpg bit it is it's genre but how can you call it an rpg when there are no choices you are not playing a role even if I love them they just need a new name is all.
They don't though.
For a start you do play a role, it's just not one you get to pick,
You often do get to make choices your choices just have to be in character.

Also one of the core principals of rpg's is number crunching Name one "true" RPG that didn't have number crunching I fucking dare you, If they didn't they wouldn't be rpgs they would be choose your own adventure stories or visual novels.

Besides, the whole "no role" argument is fundamentally flawed,
Dungeons & Dragons the granddaddy of RPGs quite possibly the first and most definitely the most well know Is an RPG point of fact it created the very concept of RPGs, and yet many people play them as nothing more than number crunchers.
No playing of roles, no developed characters hell often not even a story beyond "monsters over there, kill they ass take they loot" does D&D stop being an RPG for those games?
No, not even a little.
you make a good point but still dnd has the potential you can play any game as a "monsters over stick your pointy bit of metal into his eye" but if it has the potentional for doing deep roleplaying it is still a roleplaying, and the fact that it has or doesn't have number crucnhing has nothing to do with it being an rpg. but no matter how you look at it you get no choice but stats the character is set and the only thing that changes if I put more stats in speed or magic is the combat.
D&D is the first, it is how we define RPGs
It has always been half number crunch, half story,
Why should only one of those elements qualify for an RPG and the other not?

And to disarm your defence
you make a good point but still dnd has the potential you can play any game as a "monsters over stick your pointy bit of metal into his eye" but if it has the potentional for doing deep roleplaying it is still a roleplaying, and the fact that it has or doesn't have number crucnhing has nothing to do with it being an rpg. but no matter how you look at it you get no choice but stats the character is set and the only thing that changes if I put more stats in speed or magic is the combat.
JRPGs also have the potetal for deep roleplaying so why can you disqualify them but not D&D?

And once again D&D defines what an RPG is half number crunch half playing roles if playing roles make it an RPG why not number crunching.

And just to add a little food for thought,
How many western RPGs can you name where you are truely given choice?
or even the ability to create your own role?
Not many I'd wager so why do they get to be RPGs and not their Japanese cousins?
to me a jrpg is basically just number crunching along a pre defined storyline when it has choice it becomes just an rpg from japan(I would call it a jrpg but we have yet to invent a term for what jrpgs are now). I mean would it be a blow to you if they called jrpgs squad based strategy games or something along those lines rather than jrpgs.

Mass Effect

Mass Effect 2

Dragon Age

Fallout(from 1 to new vegas)

they all allow for you to pick the way you interact with the world rather than picking to put points in strength rather than speed, to me the rule of thumb as to wither it is an rpg is if it has dialog trees NOT ALL of them do but those tend to be rare.

Okaaaaay this could take while;

-ANYTHING to do with the benefiting of religion, im a science man.

-Appeals to help the poor, albiet a bit cruel but nothing ruins your mood when watching this weeks new episode of (anything really) like 'every 4 seconds in (insert backwater African region (not to say all African regions are backwater but some of them are pretty horrible places to be) here) a child dies' followed by a heartfelt appeal for precious money to try and save them. Same goes for childcare and pet rescue charitys as they run on similar sob stories.
Pet rescure a glaring condemment from me because, in the UK where i live, most of them cant even take on the animals they try to save, and whoever makes thier adverts for UK TV apparently doesnt realise that dogs, cats, hamsters, snakes, birds, etc cannot talk AND they make out pet rescue centres to be happy places like something like a giant house adapted from a disused school or something while even the most thick-skulled no-brained crainially-deformed monkey that can only speak 3 words of the english language coherently at once knows theyre closer to prisons only on a smaller scale and theres no chance of rioting.

-The pornification of anything, while Rules 34, 35, 51 and 63 are absolute together its just one of my beserk buttons to hear about some porn of this that goes like that.

-Videos that try to enhance themselves with dialouge and sound effects from games, most irritably for me is when its done with Team Fortress 2 and the video is something completly different, example i can name without or at least before exploding is a video of a pelican eating (yep, swallowed whole) a pidgeon with the pidgeon being voiced by the scout and the pelican voiced by the heavy...
(5 Minuite intermission of cat stroking ensues)

-Anything from those single minded dumb*bleeps* from America who are trying to ruin a global market because a few thousand parents apparently think 17 (ESRB M Rating i belive. If im wrong just rewrite that in your heads) is less than 8.

-While on that last one, American stupidity, so many examples in so many different forms from:
(NOTE: all examples here are vauge recollections of news stories or Escapist forum posts)

-Frankly jaw dropping outcomes to relatively mudane situations. Example: Boy gets banned by Father from online shooting game X because hes apparently starting to become a bit of a dickhole to those around him and because he cannot keep a handle on his incoherent screaming when he dies from an idiots mistake, Boy eventually proceeds to steal Fathers handgun and shoot him with it.

-People who are zealous at Brute Force by Lawfirm, and successful. Example: Home Invader attempts to break into Person X's house by a balcony that surrounds a skylight, natrually doing it at night Home Invader tripped and fell over the railing surrounding the skylight and fell through it and setting off the house alarm and leading to him being arrested and escorted to hospital with a few broken bones. Normally the Invader would be charged for breaking the skylight and maybe do some time depending on the nature of his break in right?
Wrong. Invader, after obtaining bail, sues Person X for having (and im not kidding) a 'faulty skylight'. Dust settles with Person X having to pay damages to Home Invader and having to withdraw charges against Home Invader for the failed break in.

-People who are just too dumb to live. Example: Mother in the middle of a doting period being led about a games shop by Son who is about 10 years old and obviously more intelligent and evil than his looks would suggest. Son picks out a game that turns out to be GTA4 which was at the time still a self contained fusion reactor of contreversy for being outlandishly violent, being misleading to real life situations and indirectly promoting drugs and crime.
Person Y approaches Mother asking if she was sure that game was right for her Son citing the content of the game and its corresponding age limit, Mother replies (keep in mind this is GTA4) 'Oh, he only plays it for the driving'. Double facedesk repeated a dozen times for that one. People like Her are the reason why we are at risk of losing our precious violence.

-Did i mention anything to do with religion? oh i did.

Time taken writing this fine page of word-vomit: ~32 minuites

Nerds who like video games to look cool. To other nerds.


Wait, seriously? Seriously!?
Isn't the entire point of being a nerd, not giving a shit about what people think?

Those people are wannabe nerds. Saaaadddd.

No bieng a nerd is about flaunting superiority over someone because you know more than them on This Franchise or That Sports Team or even Those Porcealin Tea Sets.

Case Example, me. I just nerded at you by flaunting that i know more about being a nerd than you. Its really that simple.

Facebook and Twitter; I don't understand why I should care that you just ate a slice of pizza.

Lulcats: I find your lack of proper grammar disturbing
..am I allowed to do that in this thread? Oh well.

Youtube commenters

People who only play one game (Call of Duty, Halo etc.), and claim that its the best game in existance.

Seriously, at one point my friends younger brother came up to us in a situation that went out something like this:

HIM: Do you guys play Xbox?
US: Sometimes.
HIM: What game do you play?

....game
He's also a CoD fag who plays for a minimum of 8 hours a day.
I despise everything about people who claim that the play videogames, and they're so good at it, and blah blah blah shut up you've played one game you have a very poor opinion of something you will most likely never know about you ignorant little shit.

Way to group us all together, congratulations, you're as bad as said atheists who criticize all religions.

Basically, the 'am I the only one who...' threads on this site. The answer is NO, always.

Avatar bashing. It was a good movie, it had its faults just like any other blockbuster, but I just don't see why people love to hate it so much.

Zombies. I am bloody tired of zombies. There is a good Johnathon Coulton song I don't listen to because I am just tired of zombies. I have an idea! Let's get Nessie back into pop culture! It would be some-what original and it wouldn't be fucking zombies!

Youtube comments, I know that I can easily ignore them, but it'd be nice to find an actual intelligent post.

God that sort of thing just makes me lose faith in humanity, but I'm pretty sure I'm the only one, just like I'm the only one who truly knows that JRPGS are a bunch of annoying weaboo crap.
The cake is a lie, I just lost the game, uh something sexist or racist...
I actually try to post intelligent comments as much as I can. Sadly, they get drowned out way too quickly

Ignorance masked in being "opinionated", when it's really just ignorance.

Also, people who use the internet solely to bash people, because they have horrible lives of their own. And they go out of their way to prove their self-worth to complete strangers and justify their existences. Very pathetic.

Title says it all.

For me it's the "There goes my faith in humanity" or "Faith in humanity restored" shit you see in the News Room and stuff. Just because 1 guy is a douche or 1 guy is nice doesn't change the entire fucking world. Now I bet some of you will say "It's just a joke, dude". Well here's the thing, has anyone here honest to God laughed at or enjoyed seeing another one of these fucking comments (Ones with silly pictures not counted due to them not actually creating the content). You know, what a joke is supposed to make you do?

I like hyperbole and all, but come on. Your turn.
There was a thread like this like, maybe a month ago. I think the creator's example was also "lost faith in humanity."

So we have a thread looking for things people are tired of, and responses that are pretty much the same as last time.

I guess what I'm saying is, bland, uninspired threads really make me lose faith in humanity. ;)
Here's what I feel about that post

Is that good or bad?

Two things, morons who attack you for saying you have some issues with some hardware, but then when you say you own it and the competition hardware they suddenly shut up instead of apologizing for being an asshat.

Like I think the 360 controller Dpad sucks and the triggers for the PS3 controller are horrible. Then you get "It's a lot better than the PS3/360 controller fanboy! " then you show a picture that you own both and nothing is said after. Though I have been quoted by other escapists saying "PWNED" which is always amusing.

Snot loves all systems! :O

Religious debates, while debating is a rather interesting thing to get into, BOTH sides whine like bitches, especially when you talk to a Theist(no, not Atheist.) will try to make things personal and insult you based off of your profile information, and/or threaten to kill you. I'm not making this up, it's happened Dozens of times to me.
