My bad, I don’t mean western as in gun slingers western, but western arpg like not Japanese arpg.
But Elden Ring is a japanese ARPG. That was what the jab was about I'd imagine.
Or do you mean you want an ARPG instead of a JRPG/CRPG, as in, manual combat instead of menu-based party combat?
I don’t like emo main characters or waifu, so for example tales series or Final fantasy 7 remake would probably not work for me. I am not really familiar with the terminology, I thought those kind of games would be considered Jrpg/Japrg.
Well, Elden Ring isn't a typical jrpg. It just happens to be developed by a Japanese developer. I guess it is its own genre by now.
