Podcast Episode 011 - The Genesis of JRPGs
We go
over the Genesis of JRPGs, and discover that their origin is not where we would
have expected them to come from. We go over the influences on developers in
Japan that lead to the development of Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest. We discuss how western RPGs made their way
into Japan via the Apple II, and how RPGs eventually engrained themselves into
Japanese society.
