Im a huge RPG fan...so far the my favorites this gen are Valkyria Chronicles, Demons Souls and Fallout 3.

WKC: I really wanted to like WKC especially because it was from LVL 5. Unfortunately i couldnt get into the game because i felt the battle system to be slow and boring and the story/dialog in the game wasnt all that great either. The story felt like it was writen for kids. I do think the online stuff is pretty cool tho :D

Eternal Sonata: Pretty enjoyable, i liked the battle system, graphics, sound but the leveling up, looting and customization is lacking. Also the story wasn't that interesting.

FFXIII: I actually enjoyed this game despite wat everyone else thinks. Its not the best FF game ever but i did enjoy it alot when i played it. the main downside to this game is that the first 75% of the game is linear. The battle system got better and more tactical as it progressed. If u aim for platinum in this game then u'll understand the dept of the battle system as u have to constantly experiment with paradigms and tactics.

SO4: Im currently playing this one. So far not so bad.

Dragon Age: Origins: This is a great wRPG. Its a game where your choices makes a difference. People say that this game has a great story. well i disagree, i think the story wasnt that great. The greatness of this game is the storytelling not the story itself. Enjoyed this game and looking forward to DA II.

if i were to recommend any of the rpgs i played this is how i would rate them based on my opinion and experience with the games:



Demons Souls: 10/10
Valkyria Chronicles: 9.5/10
Fallout 3: 9/10 (would be 9.5 if not for the bugs in the game)
Oblivion: 9/10

Dragon Age Origins: 8.5/10
Final Fantasy XIII: 8.5/10

Eternal Sonata: 7.5/10
Folklore: 7.5/10
SO4: 7.5/10 (so far)
Sacred 2: 7/10

WKC: 6/10

I played some of these games multiple times and the only one i didnt finish or gave up on is WKC. In this list i platinumed 4 of the games(DS,F3,DAO,FFXII close in S2 but dont feel like doing another play-through).

games i'd like the chance to play: Resonance of Fate
