>Dark souls meanwhile is literally described on the box as an action role-playing gameAnd Kojima says Death Stranding is a Strand game when it's actually a Nobi game like Nobi Nobi Boy. The more important thing there is the "action" part of the term, since action-RPGs have become their own genre in the last few decades. Back in the day the terms used to separate JRPG and WRPG was "console RPG" and "computer RPG", before language shifted. Like how Metroidvania used to be an insult instead of a genre. Is Tem-Tem not a JRPG because it's not made by the Japanese, despite the fact that it plays very similar to Pokemon which is a JRPG? And if so, what use is it to use JRPG as a genre description at all? If whatever shooters use RPG mechanics were Japanese, would you consider them JRPGs? Chinese food, as most western countries eat it, is often not actually Chinese in origin or made by Chinese people, yet we still call it Chinese food. So, in conclusion, you're retarded and don't understand how language works.
