| Baff2 said: I am a huge rpg fanatic. Unfortunately having played so many of them I have grown a bit jaded. Mediocre rpgs to me: Final Fantasy Series, Dragon Quest, Ultima, Might & Magic, Summoner, Suikoden, Kingdom Hearts, Elder Scrolls, and the list goes on and on. (Though some of these series did have high points.) Good rpgs to me: Planescape: Torment, Gothic, Baldur's Gate (the PC games, not the PS2 games). My all time favorite: Wizardry VIII Every time I think about this game I want to load it up and play it again. Open world. Side quests. Many character classes and a variety of bonus characters (that have to be found and added to the party) make for good replayability. It is a first person, party-based rpg, which is my favorite. Unfortunately nobody makes games like that anymore :( Anyway, I will add Terranigma to my list of games to play some day. |
I can't believe you find the Ultima series mediocre. I admit the last 2 games in the series were terrible but the first 7 games broke new ground with each release and Ultima 7 with all the addons was amazing. I have a feeling you didn't play the games when they were released (especially Ultima 3, 4, and 5) otherwise your opinion of the series would likely be different.
