World of Warcraft. Self explanitory. All other games, I still replay, from Super Mario Brothers, to Donkey Kong Country, to Goldeneye, Super Smash Bros, and on, and on.
And on.
And on.
Funnily enough, I'm playing it even more, ever since I put that stuff from Cerberus Network onsms_117b said:Mass Effect 2, I think I may have heavily overplayed it in it's release week....
Um, what? Sorry, but you're opinion holds no validity when talking about RPG's anymore. Especially considering the fact that Final Fantasy 12's battle system was a copy of pretty much every Western RPG from 10 years ago. Most of them don't even have very strict or ridiculous rules like D&D, although since you think they are, obviously they do. Never mind the fact the Elder Scrolls have changed in each iteration with different rules, overall gameplay style, story, and lore, since you played Morrowind and Oblivion, and both of those included first person gameplay as their form of combat, it's completely the same. And just because there is the rare Eastern RPG that doesn't follow the same form as every other JRPG ever made, with the only difference being another convoluted or stupid plot with either massive holes or just being easy to predict, doesn't mean that apparently every JRPG every is unique. Even though the only JRPGs that do anything different are still on like their 5th sequel, which minds that for several games they've been the same with nothing different but their story. The only JRPG that ever has a system that REALLY changes is Final Fantasy. And even most of those were consistent for a while with nothing changing but story, or tiny changes in the battle system like Materia or a Battle Bar instead of simply taking turns.RadicalDreamer90 said:Every Western RPG I've ever picked up -.-...Fall Out 3, Elder Scrolls 3 and 4, hell I dropped Dragon Age at the intro screen.
Western RPGS have a tenacious tendency to copy D&D so closely I may as well make up the story on the fly, because thats about as creative as it'll get. Fall out 3 would have broken that chain because I actually got into the story for once, but it made the same mistake Oblivion did when it almost had me. It enclosed me in a tight packed environment and then on a whim thrusts me out on to a giant expanse of land, and with the game expecting me to respond "Look at all this!! I want to explore and see where it all goes!" I instead responded plainly, "The Fuck would I look around here for? I'm done"
For as silly, outrageous, and downright spectacular feet's JRPG's pull off in game, at least they do stuff differently. RPG's are based on a common system, but Western RPGS tend to dick ride the rules like a five year old to there mum, while Eastern RPGS are more like the grown up and independent older brother willing to take chances and make mistakes. With that said,I'll take a shitty JRPG that at least tried over a knock off piece of shit like Dragon Age and the Elder Scrolls Series that didn't put in an ounce of effort.
Disclaimer: Not hating on Western RPGS since I haven't played ME yet, and it's suppose to remedy the horrid cliche' it's predecessors established for it, and these comments go more towards story than game play even though Dragon Ages' combat system is almost word for word the exact same system from Final Fantasy 12 and that was a generation ago, and Elder scrolls has moved maybe a few inches from its original play style.
Naruto: Rise of a ninja, and Odin Sphere. I really need to finish Odin Sphere. Also, Wild Arms 3. Great game, not really sure why I've stopped playing it.Haunted Herring said:Has anyone here just stopped playing a game and never played it again? It could be unfairness, boredom, anything really. For me it was Brutal Legend with the fight against Ophelia, bloody Reapers.
Then I deserve many medals. I've finished it a dozen times and will happily play that any day over that god awful excuse for a supposed sequel that was recently released.Pegghead said:Mass Effect, anybody who can finish that game deserves a medal.

It's completely subjective. I'm addicted to the first one, but I'm seriously unsure if I will ever play 2 again, and I'm very unsure if I will bother sinking money into Mass Effect 3, unless alot of things either change back or improve from what they dumbed down and became in 2.Pegghead said:Daedalus1942 said:Then I deserve many medals.

Hehehe.
It's mainly just my taste in video games that bought me to that, I found the game dull and many others found it great.
