Back in the day, I remember playing Final Fantasy III and Zelda on my SNES. Now it’s actually possible to make games like those only with much updated graphics. So, which is your favorite style of RPG? The Final Fantasy style with random turn-based battles and lots of skills, or the classic Zelda-style action RPG?
Personally, I like both. I’m a little more fond of action RPGs that have less emphasis on stats and more emphasis on story. I’m not too fond of random battles. They start to annoy me after a while. My emphasis is always on the story. Even so, I’m interested in hearing what all of you have to say on the subject.
Story all the way, for me
. Battling is fun, but I want to get a feeling that each battle progresses the story, that it was planned by the author and serves a purpose other than just being a battle.
Baldur’s Gate? Loved it.
Dungeon Siege? Got bored, quit. Quickly.
Yeah, I have to agree that story needs to come first. I get really tired of random battles all the time. It’s like I just want to finish the story and every few steps I hit a battle. That’s pretty annoying. Thanks for the input.
