What was your first RPG?
 

Although the first RPG I ever played was Super Mario RPG, I had no idea what RPG meant at the time and didnt know hwat the hell was going on in it when I rented. I don't have anything against it, and even own it, but it's a drag Mario couldnt talk. Anyways, what I considered my first true RPG was Chrono Trigger, which kept me renting it for weeks. I was blown away by the music (especially that piano midi that sounded almost exactly like piano when you fail to open one of those seals) and effects, and the story had kept me going. That New Game + feature where you could start a new game with all your stats and items from the previous game was also a plus. I'll admit that there seemed to be some flawed story and plot structure near the end, and things I wished that were explained, and I wish Chrono would talk too, but that game is still close to my heart.

FF4, and it made me hate the genre for the next 5 years

Baldurs Gate. It dominated two years of my life. What a great game.

I hope you aren't talking bout the one with the Dark Night, Cecil, and was called FF II when first released in the US. I actually loved the story in that better then VII. I can understand if it had to do with the random battles, insane difficulty, or plain graphics, but the story was a huge fucking leap from the previous games.

I hate that game I've always hated that game and I always will hate that game because it's a boring piece of shit

Re: What was your first RPG?
 

obviously that was also the first mario game you had ever played

Ok........................Anyways, I'm not talking exactly about just your first RPG, but the RPG that first made you fall in love with the genre.


.....Also, fuck off, Stereotype. I've been playing since Super Mario World, and even had Super Mario Allstars as a kid.

seeing as how mario had NEVER spoken and all

jesus, I fucking HATE having to explain this shit to you people

DONT YOU EVER ASSUME THAT WAS MY FIRST MARIO GAME. And yes he did talk.....in the cartoons (another fact your probably assumed otherwise of was that I actually watched re-runs of the Super Mario Bros. Super Show).

I don't have to assume anything. you're in, what, 7th grade?

hey, just because it says super mario 64 doesn't mean that there were 63 mario games before it.

How lame is to be a Mario elitist?

Shitty load times aside,Final Fantasy Chronicleswas awesome.

I was talking to italian.

AINT NO ONE KNOW MARIO BUT ME YOU ALL MARIO FRONTIN BITCHES!

I believe it was Hero's Quest, if that counts. It was a point & click style RPG/Adventure. I think it was made by Sierra, and it's kinda like Kings Quest. Only with RPG elements.
After that I really didn't play any RPGs, but then came the allmighty Fallout 2 and ate my soul.

Zork.

It counts as an RPG in my books. >:

Akuma'RAH!

Zork is love <3[/code]

My first RPG was ultima... I think it was 2, so lets just say it was. Ultima 2 Sucked me in for a while, and then i became a RPG junkie.

Dragon Warrior

Final Fantasy Legend for Gameboy.

I am a LIFE elitist, johnny, and god help me, I'll cleanse you and your filth off of this planet.

Battle Hunter for the Playstation.
I refused to play RPGs for a number of years.

idk

My first RPG was Final Fantasy 3 on the SNES. I remember playing it at a friends house and he got mad cuz I didn't want to let him play.
