Just a little correction: Western RPGs are called CRPGs. While JRPGs were huge on game consoles, most western devs were making RPGs on the Computer.

Fair enough! I always thought of CRPGs as things like Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale and Planescape: Torment - does the term encompass things like Morrowind too?

I would say yes for Morrowind. Oblivion, Skyrim and their Fallout games would be action rpg.
