I'm Just curious about, do you prefer RPGs (Role-Playing Games) or FPS (First-Person Shooters)? Personally, I love getting lost in the story and character development of RPGs, but the fast-paced action of FPS games is hard to resist. What about you? Which one do you enjoy more and why? Let's hear your thoughts!

Western or Japanese RPG?

Both. Both are good.

I loved playing the greats like Halo CE and Morrowind when they came out. Both were phenomenal games, and they're still great now.

But if there is one genre I play more, it's definitely FPS. I dont really play them for the violence, but I find the actions in the game more engaging for the time I can play them than an RPG like Skyrim or Dragon Quest. I have recently been enjoying Ready or Not and Zero Hour, but I also have been playing Yakuza Kiwami. I just finished the slog of the coliseum battles in Yakuza Kiwami so things might pick back up, but I never found any part of RoN or ZH as much of a slog as that part of Kiwami.
