You kinda got a point most Jrpg's fall under this category.
but a few ones like Baten Kaitos and Final Fantasy Tactics don't....oh yeah and the Persona series and digital devil saga or pretty much every Shin Megami Tensei Game.
Also I don't get how people think Chrono Trigger is the best JRPG...sure it has a simple and fun battle system and great character design(keep in mind I'm a DBZ fan) but everything else about it is pretty average.
Oh good god, don't you dare say Final Fantasy Tactics requires strategy. It doesn't.
Tactics 1:
*casts best spells & quickens and casts best spells again*
Tactics 2:
*hits enemy a few times and then casts best spells when mp is charged (or just use an ether)
AND THEY FUCKING REMOVED THE MULITPLAYER IN A2 THE LAZY PRICKS
