EXP Podcast #61: The Dubious Health of the JRPG

Few genres have seen a rise and fall like the once illustrious Japanese RPG. There still exists a strong core group of players dedicated to the JRPG, but could the poor showing of Japanese titles in 2009 be the death knell for a dying art form? Jeff Fleming think so. This week on the EXP Podcast, inspired by his recent opinion piece, Scott and I visit to the local genre hospital and discuss the health of JRPGs, DS confinement, teen angst, and the 'unicorn magic' of operatic storytelling.Show notes:- Run time: 27 min 52 sec- "The Last Days of the Japanese RPG?" by Jeff Fleming via GameSetWatch- Music provided by Brad Sucks
