>>53776331>Digimon World wasn't a JRPG. it was a monster raising sim.That's what I mean dipshit. Digimon started off as a v-pet, and then its own video game, that's why a lot if its core concepts are the way they are.
But it took years for them to just make a normal RPG, because that wasn't their intention at first. They did a platform fighter before that.
>>53776340>>53776341>Dragon Quest V is a rip off of Final FantasyFF only exists because of the success of DQ. And Dragon Quest in general was a huge influence on Pokemon, it's why Sugimori's art style was just off brand Toriyama.
>Final Fantasy is a rip off of WizardryDQ is the one that took a lot if its cues from Wizardry and Ultima. FF had ripped some stuff from D&D books, which all RPGs stem from
The Pokemon pitch Bible also mentioned Wizardry and its Charisma stat and conceptualized "Capsule Monsters" joint you because of that stat.
Megami Tensei did monster recruitment long before DQV too and that series was extremely Wizardry and D&D influenced, to the point that SMT had its own tabletop RPG series. It even came out months before Wizardry IV which almost was the first RPG to make you use almost only enemy monsters
