chambered69
04.06.12 | final fantasy? |
BallsToTheWall
04.06.12 | Is the latest Castlevania game worth acquiring? |
Wolfhorde
04.06.12 | Fallout New Vegas with DLCs was also alright. |
Bloodhail
04.06.12 | haven't played the new Castlevania too poor |
ITsHxCTOASTER
04.06.12 | There's a kickstarter campaign for the guys who made Wasteland to make Wasteland 2
I've never played either but just so you guys know |
Bloodhail
04.06.12 | also forgot Temple of Elemental Evil was pretty good too...
@toaster: yeah, its pretty exciting news. It's pretty much a done deal. |
ITsHxCTOASTER
04.06.12 | Oh really? I haven't checked up on it or anything since I've never played the first one. This isn't an rpg or anything but this one looks badass http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/stoic/the-banner-saga |

04.06.12 | Fable: TLC niggas. Also KOTOR 2. |

04.06.12 | ZELDA MOTHERFUCKERS |
Satellite
04.06.12 | playing new vegas now
such an underrated game |
MeatSalad
04.06.12 | I think Kotor 2 with the restored content mod blows the first game out of the water. |
Bloodhail
04.06.12 | new Fallouts don't compare to the old ones
and zelda is pretty much the weakest example of an rpg ever. I feel like people just always mention it because of the fantasy setting |
Polymath
04.06.12 | Ocarina of Time bro |
Trebor.
04.06.12 | Zelda isn't even an RPG |
Bloodhail
04.06.12 | every one of you needs to listen to Crysis and jump on that |
BallsToTheWall
04.06.12 | What..... |
ITsHxCTOASTER
04.06.12 | Isn't OoT an adventure game though and not an rpg? Best rpg I've ever played was Tales of Symphonia but it's not manly |
MeatSalad
04.06.12 | Zelda is more of an action/adventure game than an RPG. |
Trebor.
04.06.12 | Aging 7 years when you get the master sword doesn't count as leveling up |
Crymsonblaze
04.06.12 | Final Fantasy VI, VII, X, Lunar Silver Star Story Complete and Lunar 2: Eternal Blue Complete, Earthbound, Chrono Trigger, Lufia 2, Pokemon, Super Mario RPG, and Paper Mario |
MeatSalad
04.06.12 | Hell yeah Earthbound. |
Wolfhorde
04.06.12 | "new Fallouts don't compare to the old ones"
Well, duh. They're different games, the only thing in common are the skills, VATS, name and the setting. New Vegas was still decent despite the horribly monotonous engine. |
Bloodhail
04.06.12 | jrpgs arent that manly but they're good |

04.06.12 | Fallout NV with DLC>Fallout 3>Fallout NV without DLC>Fallout 1 & 2 |

04.06.12 | you probably think skyrim is the best elder scrolls too |
Wolfhorde
04.06.12 | Comparing apples and oranges. |
ITsHxCTOASTER
04.06.12 | Crymsonblaze just how hard would you recommend Chrono Trigger? I saw the Gamesradar list of the top 100 best games of all-time, and Chrono Trigger was #3. They said it was the best rpg of all time, bar none and I was like daaaaaaamn |
Bloodhail
04.06.12 | if you havent played it then you missed out in your childhood but it's never too late to experience it for the first time man |

04.06.12 | meh ive been a gamer for many years and i gota say that the mid to late 90s was the best time for gaming, not saying its bad now or anything |
Trebor.
04.06.12 | I agree, but I don't give people shit for discussing modern games |
MarvinLapsus
04.06.12 | Gothic 1 and 2 FTW |
Bloodhail
04.06.12 | I'm probably younger than most of you guys but these older games really were better than what they put out today... which is why I'm pretty damn excited for wasteland 2 |
Bloodhail
04.06.12 | Also Legend of Grimrock looks pretty sweet |
jefflebowski
04.06.12 | fucking fallout 1 and 2, that's some proper post-apocalypse shit right there |
jdennis31
04.06.12 | 'Aging 7 years when you get the master sword doesn't count as leveling up' hahahahaha. but how has no one here mentioned suikoden 1 & 2, best rpg's ever |
jefflebowski
04.06.12 | elite is almost an RPG, and it rules |
Bloodhail
04.06.12 | I need to make a jrpg list now |
Crymsonblaze
04.06.12 | "Crymsonblaze just how hard would you recommend Chrono Trigger? I saw the Gamesradar list of the top 100 best games of all-time, and Chrono Trigger was #3. They said it was the best rpg of all time, bar none and I was like daaaaaaamn"
I'd definitely recommend you play it. It's probably my least favorite of the ones I mentioned, but definitely a game you should play if you like RPGs at all
"Old game elitists are annoying as fuck"
Well new games suck, so...
|
jdennis31
04.06.12 | i wouldn't say new games suck, just very stale. remakes or sequels, pretty much like the movie industry... and yea dude, chrono trigger is the shit. but seriously, suikoden I and II |
AdamK
04.06.12 | Skyrim is better than all of those except maybe fallout 3 which you didn't include |
Crymsonblaze
04.06.12 | Suikoden is good but I never got around to finishing it. Suikoden II is way too expensive for me to pick up, maybe it'll come out as a PSone Classic for the PSN one day. |
iambandersnatch
04.06.12 | 2 was my first love as far as games go
props |
tommygun
04.06.12 | Super Mario RPG and the first two Paper Mario games are the manliest of manly RPGs |
Crymsonblaze
04.06.12 | Yeah love Super Mario RPG and the first Paper Mario |
ZombicidalMan
04.06.12 | Stalker: Shadow Of Chernobyl rules so much. Not a real RPG, but, eh, close enough. |
TomArnoldsArmpit
04.06.12 | fallout 2 is my favorite. the newer ones are rad too. |

04.06.12 | god of war |

have you even played these |
SCREAMorphine
04.07.12 | Fallout 1 & 2 were pretty great, though I prefer the Bethesda era more. |
Winrar
04.07.12 | I could never really like any Elder Scrolls after Morrowind. |
Funeralopolis
04.07.12 | secret of mana [2] |
someguest
04.07.12 | no such shit as a 'manly rpg' |
Funeralopolis
04.07.12 | pokemon is an rpg that everyone intentionally pretends to know less about then they actually know. Then their friends join in and reminisce but also do the same because they don't want to seem like nerds.
Who was that yellow mouse again? lol I dunno all I know is he evolved with a thunderstone, learned agility at level 33 and had relativly good stats if you give him an orb, and had a max base speed of 306 don't know his name lolololololololololololol |
Fuff24
04.07.12 | FFVI is the best final fantasy that will ever be made. Chrono Trigger is an obvious classic. Dragon quest is pretty manly. Golden sun kicked ass. Zelda II was an RPG (the only one in the series) and it was dope. Phantasy Star II is a criminally underrated and highly influential signpost of the genre |
Funeralopolis
04.07.12 | I could never stand Golden Sun, also Breath Of Fire rules. |
Fuff24
04.07.12 | Breath of Fire was cool, except for the final boss. He was too easy |
LifeAsAChipmunk
04.07.12 | @Funeral, although I haven't played Black or White, I'll tell you that I know a lot about pokemon. |
Funeralopolis
04.07.12 | no you will tell me you know nothing, your favourite pokemon is Charizard and that the entire 5th generation is ruined because of one ice cream pokemon like a normal human being. |
SCREAMorphine
04.07.12 | Everyone forgets Suikoden 1 & 2 |
Hospital
04.07.12 | Baulders gate rules, hard. |
Crymsonblaze
04.07.12 | Pokemon rules, anyone who says otherwise is lying.
At least Gen 1 and 2. I even liked Black and White. Not a huge fan of Ruby and Sapphire and absolutely HATED Diamond and Pearl. |
LifeAsAChipmunk
04.07.12 | No, my favorite pokemon was Oddish because it was the first pokemon I caught. I remember it learning Acid at level 23, but at level 7 by Generation V, and that it evolved at level 21 and could evolve again either by Leaf Stone or Sun Stone. I also know that Groudon stupidly lost to Kyogre. Ninjask is the fastest pokemon in the game, Shuckle has the best Defense stats, Blissy is bitch to fight against. Darkrai and Sableye have no weakness and Shedinja couldn't die unless it was hit with a super-effective type attack. Rock types get 50 % more special defense during a Sandstorm, and that Scizor and Gengar are like the best things ever. |
Crymsonblaze
04.07.12 | And my friends and I still play. Last summer we had what we called a "restart race", playing Red and Blue from beginning to end and battling to see who could make the most progress in 24 hours. |

04.07.12 | Fallout 1 makes me so emotional. I don't know why.
Also, this needs some Dwarf Fortress and Space Station 13. (Even though DF is more of a RTS game with lots of RPG elements and an RPG mode.) |
Mordecai.
04.07.12 | golden sun 1 & 2, Final Fantasy VI, FF VII, The Last Story, Xenoblade Chronicles, and yeh Fallout games.
