This is genuinely important because it's a sentiment used to dismiss an entire genre on completely false pretenses. I can argue, successfully, how this doesn't apply to about 90% of JRPGs. But that shouldn't matter because the derogatory framing is unjust, and should be dismissed even if it was true

a youtube video i definitely hope to make someday: really confronting that "all JRPGs end with you killing God with the power of friendship" nonsense. it's fake clever like "is a hot dog a sandwich" but it's clear tons of people genuinely believe it
