Interesting concept you have there that the same genres can provide different aspects for the player to discover on. That's probably why those two genres are different.

Well seeing how RPGs were developed after World War II and first made their battlefield experience during Vietnam I don't see many JRPGs they might use the same as the US since we're over there helping them so much.........OH GAMES oh...well then ummm....yeah two different types altogether.

These are very solid points all around.

Most of my RPG experience resolves from JRPG's such as Final Fantasy and Dragon Warrior/Quest as I didn't yet have a comp' in the 80's and thus most of the DOS RPG's were unavailable to me such as Ultima and Wizardry.

I believe Final Fantasy 8 was an attempt by a Japanese company to create a western RPG aesthetic that completely passed over the heads of most Final Fantasy fans who signed up for a JRPG experience; myself included. I think I'll play through it once more, but with a fresh mind now that I have some western RPG savvy under my belt.
