Now I haven't always been a fan of RPGs (in fact I use to hate them). I tried getting into The Elder Scrolls, hated it. The Witcher, couldn't get into it. Final Fantasy, didn't bother at all. The game that got me into RPGs was Mass Effect, and boy it was amazing.  The trilogy is fantastic, with a story that is engaging, and easy to understand. Lore can be found inside the games codex entries, and there is tons of content. The Fallout trilogy is also amazing, and in fact my favourite RPG of all time is New Vegas. What is your favourite RPG franchise? I'll have a poll above, or you can post yours below.



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Kingdom Hearts.Its also my favorite franchise of all time



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Yeah, I have to go with Final Fantasy as well. Felt really tempted to say Souls, though.

Tons of them. Suikoden, Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Elder Scrolls, Witcher, Pokemon, Fire Emblem, Breath of Fire, Ogre Battle, Secret of Mana I dunno, Chrono Trigger, tho I didn't really liked Cross. And I guess Ni No Kuni even tho theres only 1 it's a franchise since the second games has been announced. 

Unpopular opinion, tho I really enjoy the gameplay, Im not a huge fan of the Kingdom Heart series.

Well, I don't have a favoruite franchise. I do have a favorite franchise though. :P


For RPG's, there are simply too many to think of. I really enjoy Mario & Luigi though. It's an RPG series people should play. It managed to give character development for Bowser, which is something I'll never forget

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

No Persona ? :(

Kingdom Hearts. 3 of the games in my top 10 are from the Kingdom Hearts series. I love the combat, the charm and visiting Disney worlds.
Second place would be Final Fantasy. VI, IX, X and XII are in my top 20.

The Xeno series. Gears, Saga, Blade Chronicles. Love those games.



Angelus on 21 July 2016

Not sure what my definitive number one is, but Deus Ex, Mass Effect, and Witcher are very much top of my mind.

It's tough though, because there are so many amazing games throughout the various RPG franchises. The issue though, is that many of them are also riddled with missteps along the way. Some have so many games that the quality varies greatly between them.

Right now, Fallout with a slight edge over Elder Scrolls. I like the atmosphere of Elder Scrolls more but I prefer Fallout combat.

All-time, Suikoden. It's just such a massive shame that it has fallen.

Also, Persona could move up, depending on P5.
