Due to semantic shift, the term “JRPG” has evolved to describe those made in Japan and those that use their design philosophies. For example, no one calls Bloodborne a JRPG, though it’s a RPG made in Japan. Toby Fox describes Undertale as a JRPG, despite being Western. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_change
