So I've been here thinking for a while. While there are a few good new FPS games like BF3 and planetside 2, the rpg area has just had failure after failure. Where is Ocarina of Time? Where is Morrowind? I never thought Zelda could have a bad 'serious' game but I was proven wrong with the release of skyward sword. I mean sure windwaker was absolutely atrocious, but it wasn't really a serious release but more of something to keep the fans occupied until Twilight Princess.

And then skyward sword came out... it's like some weird dream some guy in Otaku, Japan had about Zelda, and it was a crappy dream at that. Zelda is not a shy highschool girl Japan. Zelda is BUTCH!

And then there's the elder scroll series. Which has been crap for so long it's difficult to remember the times of morrowind. Skyrim? Skyrim sucks, but people are to blinded by some shiny graphics to realize the underlying game play which makes the game horrid.

I know everything, I've just forgotten most of it.

Also, my XBL Gamertag is 'Wenggh', not 'A Stolen Fruit'.

You're growing old OP.

Stop growing old.

Zelda games aren't RPGs.

RPGs are actually going to get better (I hope) in the next few years.

They did remove a lot of features and character customization.

The black wind begins to blow... Okay... give me your best shot... If you're prepared for the void!

Hmm...

What about Dragon Age: Origins, Demon Souls, and Dark Souls?

  • 12.05.2012 7:11 PM PDT

Fallout 4 should be amazing.

Not interesting to me. Never played them can't judge them. But they aren't in my general liking.

Skuldier? Never heard of him...

How can they shrug off 500 bullets?

First off BF3 is garbage, if you ever played any Battle field games besides BC2 then you would see that.
Secondly Ocarina of Time isn't an RPG, it's an adventure game, also windwaker was great, I don't know what you're talking about.
Third, I'll agree that Skyrim sucks but as for lack of RPGs you're way off.
RPGs released last year: Dark Souls, Deus Ex, Witcher 2 for xbox.
Pick up Fallout: NV if you want a good RPG.
So much is wrong in your post man.

  • 12.05.2012 7:14 PM PDT

Skyrim, KoA: Reckoning, Mass Effect series, and several others are all good RPGs

I'd say RPG's are doing far better than FPS games.

But it do.

Hey. Wind Waker was -blam!-. Amazing.


Oh and the Zelda series isnt RPG.

Unto the Fray we go

Alas, gone are the unintuitive interfaces, steep learning curves and millions of RPG copies gathering dust because the owner couldn't get into it.

No he isn't, that's like saying CoD is a turn based strategy game.

Actually the Elder Scrolls series has been one of my favorites.
