I mean I did say "to me" in the title. I personally dont get why someone would skip the story in a JRPG to get to more combat, because the story is why I'm there and the combat is secondary at best (luckily this is usually the case) and a chore in the worst but luckily rare cases. So yeah its all just how I personally see things.
I can see how this mechanic could work for some people though, I admit.
because I've never played a JRPG that had a story that was in any way as engaging as those that are common on film, TV and in books.
I guess for me, they might not be as engaging as some of the stories told in those mediums (YMMV, some of my favorite stories are JRPG ones like Chrono Trigger and FFX) but they are different ones that I still want to experience and are the reason why I'm at the rodeo.
