One of my favorite games is Earthbound, made by a Japanese company who made a game with a setting similar to America.

I want more JPRGs from an outsiders lens looking in.

They really captured it with police brutality and trashcan hamburgers.

Real talk, though, Earthbound is unique in that they hired a famous comedian to write it. Same for the other Mother games.

Startropics for the NES. It was made for American audiences and only sold and marketed outside Japan.

Not quite a JRPG but worth checking out if you haven't heard of it.

Star Tropics is fantastic! I bought it used and it still has the letter in the box.
