top ten RPGs outside final fantasy

[arbitor365]

You dont necessarily have to put them in order. Like the title dictates, do not have final fantasy games in your list. I cannot tell you how annoyed i get when i go on every site and every person has nothing but final fantasy games on their lists (especially when they stick FF7 at the top ). Show that you actually have tastes outside that franchise. here is my list


1) legend of dragoon
2) persona 3
3) kingdom hearts 2
4) seiken densetsu (SNES)
5) kingdom hearts 1
6) armed dragon fantasy (NES)
7) devil summoner games (dont know which i like best)
8) pokemon silver
9) star ocean
10) infinite undiscovery

There is nothing wrong when people like Final Fantasy and put them in their favorite RPG games list I never was a big fan of the FF series anyway, so here are a few that I can think of atm.

• Ultima Underworld
  
• Lands of Lore
  
• Ultima
  
• Diablo
  
• Gothic
  
• The Elder Scrolls
  
• Fallout
  
• Boiling Point
  
• S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
  
• Summoner
  

Edit: Damn >.< Forgot Dungeons & Dragons. Well, I guess there are still many more that I forgot =)

oh yeah, i forgot the battle network series. I think it received alot of unfair hate. I always loved those games. I didnt think to include it becuase i never thought of it as an RPG. It was pretty cool series but of course they have ruined it with the DS starforce games. whose fucking idea was it to take a game with 9 spaces of movement in the battlefeild and turning it into 3, thus limiting you to only left and right movement!?! They completely downgraded the battle system and replaced the detailed sprites with halfass CG polygon models. I dont understand how they can continue to make this trash. most original megaman fans dont like battle network to begin with and the battle network fans regurgitate internal organs at the very mention of "megaman starforce" so there must be a very small demographic that is buying this stuff still. its just terrible. I hope they learn from their mistakes and go back to the GBA format. all they need to do to the original games to improve them is, make levels more diverse, make more battle chips, heighten the sprite graphics, maybe add more factors to the battles, add more playable characters, and make an online battle feature. but they dont want to do that. they just want to take a great series of games a dump an assload of diarrhea all over them. anyway, enough of that rant lol ;D

Hmm I'm not really into RPG games that much so I wouldn't be able to do a top 10 list

Thread necromancy!

Anyway... In no particular order...

1.Planescape: Torment
2.KotOR (the first one)
3.Persona 3
4.Baldur's Gate II
5.TES Morrowind
6.TES Oblivion
7.Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magick Obscura PC
8.AD&D (Yes, the board game. A REAL rpg.)
9.Legend of Dragoon
10.Fallout 1&2
11.Phantasy Star II through IV
12.Final Fantasy VI <----Defiant justice.

I know that's twelve, but whatever. If you don't like it, feel free to go eat some penises.

To me a good rpg needs depth, creativity, originality, BALANCE, and story. The games listed above carry, in my opinion, more of those than nearly any other game I can think of.

I'm probably forgetting loads of them, but those are the first to come to mind. Ultima - Quest for the Avatar is probably one of the most important catalysts to the evolution of the rpg as well, now that I think on it.

That's all I got
