its probably because France is Unified and not participating in any Culture wars that we get a game that is just good.

It's more of a WRPG than JRPG in my opinion. And what happens if you market a WRPG by disguising it as a JRPG? JRPG fans instantly fawn over it just like most JRPGs with WRPG elements.
The only thing that is JRPG-ish that funnily no WRPG has ever done is the flashy combat animations.

Don't be naive children, critics have already given good ratings to outright sh1t many times. So be careful.

Let's start the hype train! Preloading the deluxe edition now. It seems like the devs knocked it out of the park, judging from the reviews. I was so excited for this and I'm delighted it's good.

No. It's another JRPG made in Europe that improves the lastest japanese products. Like Sea of Stars.

theres only two on this forum, because this game wasn't really hyped or advertised, and its from a smaller company.

I feel like "JRPG" means a style of game, more than an actual Japanese RPG.

Dark Souls is a Japanese RPG, but almost nobody calls it a JRPG.

JRPGs are, counter-intuitively, from all over the place and tend to be united more by methods of world exploration, story-telling, party and item functionality and combat mechanics.

Sea of Stars? You'd really compare this thing to the level of mediocrity Sea of Stars is?
