I Need Some Advice, Please Help!

[KasaiOkami]

My girl friend wants to start playing more video games, but is rather picky about her games. She already plays the hell out of Skyrim, but because that's the only game she plays, she gets VERY bored of it. I want to suggest more games for her but I would love to get assistance from other gamers as well!

The current systems she owns and games she has are:
1) Xbox 360 (Skyrim, Fable 2+3, Assassin's Creed 2,(apparently hates the game because she says its repetitive Q.Q) Guitar Hero
2) Nintendo 3DS (Pokemon Black, Mario Kart 3D)
3) Nintendo Wii (She hardly plays the thing so try to stay away from it if possible, plus I don't even know half of the games she has x.x)

She prefers role playing games, NO Anime games, (Which is ironic because we are going to an Anime convention soon >.>) She prefers the "rag-to-riches" hero type games, no sci-fi/aliens, and no overly complicated story line. I should also mention she doesn't like fighting video games.

Hope any of that helps, and thanks for your help! ^^

Maybe try her on Fallout 3 and New Vegas? From the look of things she will love those. Could also try her on Mass Effect 2 or Dragon Age.

Seems like an RPG player to me

She seems to like rpgs and open worldness so try those. I'd try Kingdom of Amalor, Dragon's Dogma and maybe Witcher 2.

New Vegas, Dragon Age and Mass Effect are all very good options, as suggested above by the Moonlight Butterfly.

Witcher 2 is excellent as well, but might be too complex.

Gotta agree with New Vegas suggestion.

Aside from that, all I can think of Mario 3D Land and maybe Kid Icarus. What does she mean by "Anime Games?" Does she mean art style? Because I would have recommended The World Ends With You, if not Kingdom Hearts works.

Cthulhu Saves The World is another fun RPG that should still be on XBLA. Other than that, old classics like Bioshock, KOTOR and Jade Empire are still worth playing.

I'd try Kingdom of Amalor,

This is a great suggestion as well it's a beautiful game with loads of content.

The Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition

It's my favourite recent game.

Xenoblade Chronicles is also well worth a play.

For a game where you don't need to think at all, try the Fable series maybe? It'd be pretty cheap to get it all second hand (GOTY Fable 2 for like 20~25$/?)

As for an arcade recommendation, Castle Crasher never really disappoints.

I already mentioned she owns Fable 2 and 3... >.>

Sorry, dude, I skimmed your post a little too quickly. Still, take the recommendation for Castle Crashers at least.

Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition just came out on consoles, get that because it is absolutely fantastic.
Also if you have any half way decent PC get Fable TLC, it is by far the best in that series.
