/vr/ - Retro Games

I booted up wizardry 1 and it was like incredibly straightforward. I of course have modern conveniences and I was playing a remake but still. This and Ultima aren't that hard to get, I personally think when people internalize something as an Influential Classic they assume it's beyond them and then don't earnestly try it. If you played like, the original dragon quests I don't see why this would be a struggle

What am I in for?

The Japanese can be weird that way. They saw the video game RPG genre and brought it over but ended up making the games far simpler and easier to appeal to local gamers.

But then they got it in their head that their games must be too hardcore so they make an insultingly easy one and just for them.

For any japanese anons who come to /vr/, why were WRPGs very popular there? Are they still popular now even if a niche thing?
