Is Japan superior not only in quantity but also in quality regarding Medieval Fantasy games?

I guess we could pretend Turkey is part of the West and say Mount and Blade.

Nice try Edrogan

Morrowind, Daggerfall, Severance, and Ultima 7 are infinitely better than any of those.

The medieval hype died out in early 2000's, after the release of Oblivion. Back in the 80's-90's, like 99% of all western RPG games had medieval/fantasy setting. People just get bored.

I don't even like any of those games. They're all shit.

Gothic 3 with all the community patch was great.

I mean things like combat. The best fighting, beat 'em up/character action games/whateveryouwanttocallthem are done by Japs.

Another thing is the quality of their animations are snappier and actually seem to have weight to them, just compare Dragon's Dogma and Souls games to the shit Bioware and Bethesda put out. Even Kingdom's of Amalur doesn't really come close.

I've recently gone back to Splinter Cell Chaos Theory and noticed just how bad the game has aged because of this. Uncharted is a series that always got praise for the way it looks, but seeing it now feels like the characters are skating on ice. Meanwhile Demon's Souls, or even much older stuff like MGS1 somehow still hold up.

when will weebshits ever learn

Nigger the Souls games are just the evolution of King's Field. The first of which game out in 1994. They just moved the camera to third person and added a roll.

The japs never made an action combat as satisfying as Severance, Jedi Knight, FEAR, or GTA IV. Jedi Outcast and Academy's saber and force combat are still the best melee fighting mechanic ever designed.

If we're not talking about RPG, then GTA IV still has better animation than anything the japs have pulled out. Severance has some solid animations for 2001 standard. CoD 1 and 2's guns and hit animations don't feel floaty at all.

Animation lags piece of shit. I can give you souls, but I hate DD's hit animation lag. It does give weight in the sense to the combat, but it's cheap and looks like shit.

Are you shitting me? They literally have nothing in common. One is a dungeon crawler RPG in vein of Ultima Underground, the other one is a theme park hack and slash. Souls does have much more in common with Severance, but even Severance is still better at giving a dungeon crawler vibe by giving you scarce items and complex level design. Souls is just a casual hack and slash game.

Why am I always furiously mashing buttons like a 12 year old when playing WRPGs? No thanks.

God these threads are so pointless.

You've got the weebs that will defend japanese games to death, and the westaboox that basically only play spreadsheed simulators on PC shitting on japanese games to death.

There's no dialogue, no exchange of ideas, no actual argumentation, just two dumbass hooligans slapping each other in the balls.

We've had this conversation a million times before and nobody ever changed their opinion or was even remotely enriched in any way from anything that has ever been said in these threads, it's the definition of two echo chambers striking each other and then they just go their separate ways.

Gigantic fucking waste of time.

are you retarded?
the only good thing GTA has is the gun combat
