that's because they don't know what the J in JRPG stands for.

- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

XBox is cool but I kind of appreciate that it isn't big their. Japan needs it's own identity and it's good that the country's own console developers are thriving in it's homeland
I don't think Microsoft ever tried to get into the Japanese market after the first few years of Xbox 360. Japan is just way too ingrained with Sony and Nintendo, that's where all the JRPGs are and what people there are most familiar with. They pretty much abandoned all hope when they realized this.
