[QUOTE="Obryn, post: 4609854, member: 11821"] Hmm... My favorite CRPG storylines, in no particular order... (1) Final Fantasy III. It kinda pulled me in, what can I say. I liked it much more than FF1, which quickly got boring. (2) Star Control II. Amazing, fun, and deep plotline. There's a sense of mystery and probably the best humor in any computer game I've seen. Each of the alien races is ... well, damned excellent. I also loved the game itself... I could destroy whole squadrons with Fwiffo (or any other Spathi). To heck with the rest of those races! Who needs 'em? And IMHO it [I]is[/I] a CRPG; the dialogue trees and ship customization just make it a CRPG where your [I]ship[/I] is your character. (3) KotOR 1. It's too bad that the gameplay improvements of KotOR 2 spoiled me on ever playing KotOR 1 again... (Much like how Oblivion spoiled Morrowind for me.) 1 has the better storyline, by far, but 2 has desperately-needed gameplay improvements. Like, not needing to stay at level 3 or 4 for most of the game, so you can get a few real Jedi levels. :) HK-47 is my favorite CRPG NPC of all time. Now, my [I]favorite[/I] CRPG of all time is Oblivion, but it's not so much for the main storyline. Like most Bethesda games, I think the plot is a convenient excuse for a gorgeous, sandboxy game-world. I liked Morrowind, too, but frankly Morrowind gets [I]irritating[/I]... I got sick of the slow pace at which my character moved. It didn't keep me from beating the game, but I got an infinite-Endurance-regeneration item as quickly as I could make it. I look forward to digging into Fallout 3. At the moment, though, my brain has been consumed by King's Bounty: The Legend. -O [/QUOTE]
