Fans of rpg games

[Jigen Daisuke]

Who here are fans of rpg's or srpg's and what are some of your favorite titles?

[cross blues]

my absolute favorites are strategy-RPG games like:

Final Fantasy Tactics
Front Mission 3
Disgaea : Hour of Darkness

I also like:

Fable
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Skies of Arcadia
and Elder Scrolls III is decent

for some reason I never got into other FF games... never played Kingdom Hearts either. I'm probably not much of an RPG gamer compared to others here.

I'm oldschool. :cool:

Bard's Tale series
Eye of the Beholder 1&2
Pool of Radiance/Gold Box series
Baldur's Gate series (PC)
Icewind Dale series
Ultima 1-6

Did great RPG's die with Bioware? :crying: I may go dig up some antiquated Wizardry/Might and Magic games just for something new to play. (Since I missed those series the first time around)

Knights of the Old Republic has been the only thing remotely satisfying on consoles that I can recall. Japanese RPG's rarely give me enough influence over the stats/appearance of my characters to be satisfying, or they're entirely too linear. I hate being led around by the nose.

And this is the main reason I bought an X-box: the glimmer of hope given to me by KOTOR, Jade Empire, and a couple of others. Although, oddly enough, Morrowind didn't click with me. Maybe I'm too party-oriented. I'm thinking of giving it another shot.

I'm a big fan of the following:

Star Ocean: Second Story
Skies of Arcadia
Grandia II
Disgaea: Hour of Darkness
Final Fantasy VII - X
FF Tactics
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Xenosaga Episode One: Der Wile Zur Macht

If we are also including more action oriented RPGs:

Brave Fencer Musashi

The Angry Gamer (http://www.insidepulse.com/article.php?contentid=28141) misses older RPG's too, though his primary reason differs slightly with mine.

EinBebop, have you tried Arx Fatalis for the Xbox? I don't particularly care for it, but it's supposed to be a lot like Ultima Underworld. But this one isn't party based, either, so I don't know if you'd like it.

As for me, I like a lot of different types of RPGs, both on consoles and PC. Both styles have their pros and cons. While I enjoy the role playing aspects of the PC style RPGs, I also enjoy the gameplay and storylines of a lot of console RPGs.

The only styles I usually don't play are pure hack and slash dungeon crawls, or turn based strategy RPGs, though there are a few exceptions for each.

Favorites

Least Favorites
Grandia II
FF 2(not 4), 7, 10
Vandal Hearts II

I know only favorites were asked for, but I just can't resist the opportunity to gripe.

[SilverKnight]

Final Fantasy VII - The first console RPG that I ever really, really liked.
Shining Force - No matter how old this game is, I can always pick it up and play at any time.
Dragon Force - Addictive gameplay that killed many, many hours that could've been otherwise spent doing boring homework. :D
Final Fantasy Tactics - Cool storyline, and a healthy chunk of customization.
Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind - Electronic crack. 'Nuff said.

Really, I haven't played that many RPGs, but most of the number I have played I've generally liked. I have low standards, what can I say? >smiles<
