Which RPG should I get?
Title speaks for itself. I didn't include Final Fantasy X and Morrowind because I have them already. OK, I was going to put a poll in, but anyway just post some good RPGs. I have KOTOR, too.

Pfft

Avoid Fallout 1.

I havent played part 2 but it's frustrating to only be able to move 6-7 spaces, then wait for the enemy to finish moving, while you're waiting there for at least 15 seconds doing nothing.

BORING

And people often mislook the Myst series.

Very under-rated games.

Not sure if the Romance of Three Kingdom games are RPGs, they might be worth a look...

Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a strategy game.

The NES one was the best. They tried to overdo the later ones with too many options.

All I want to do is conquest damnit.

That and they changed the field play.

I haven't played any of them. Argh, wish I still had the NES/SNES. Might rent one of the PS/PS2 ones to see what's like.

Strategy...RPG...same thing..

I guess I'll have to wait.

It better be like you said and go back to it's roots.

I remember the NES would have rulers offer you their daughters as brides and whatnot.

I would kill the daughter and the messenger.
