I'm having a problem that may sound familiar with some other members of this forum and that is that I haven't found a game in a long time that I actually enjoy. I'm thinking of the RTS genre requiring you to have korean fast keyboard skills and feels more like a job then a game (since it'll be very intensive and you just grind the tactics/build orders that you are familiar with). The only RTS that I know that isn't among this is Sins of a Solar Empire.
Now to the RPG genre, which has been annihilated since the coming of world of warcraft. Nowadays an RPG is a game where you just have to murder tons and tons of critters who are no way relevant to the story by just pressing 1 or 2. The fights aren't real time anymore and the games where they are, often suck monkeyballs like NWN 2 (which is more of a grind to the end than a real RPG).
Where are the games of old like Deus Ex (hell, even invisible war is better then the crap i've been playing lately), Diablo 2, Fable, Knights of the Old Republic and of course Ghost Recon (the original, where one bullet could kill you). If anyone knows some games I've been looking over then please point them out to me because the "been-there-done-that" shooters are getting stale and I can't get an action RPG without it being a fragfest.
