Amazing how many people talk out of their *ahem* backside when it comes to 'JRPGS'.
Anyway. I won't be so pretentious to claim I know how to make RPGs better. All I can say is that I, personally, would enjoy them more if they had more mature themes (FFXII comes to mind as a good step on the way) and more actual choices to influence the storyline in a lasting way (Planescape Torment was a nice example of this).
A combination of that would be perfect in an MMORPG, to add the social aspect to the experience, but that would be hell to realize (if possible at all). Sad.
