@ darkmanzero:
seriously dude, i've also tried my hand at some RPGs, honestly.
At least, i've played some of ff10, ff10-2, and ff12, and not to forget LOTR- battle of middle earth.
my preferences have been clearly stated, i find it boring to be juggling "spells", "thundagra and blizzardra " and all that BS, on the TV Screen before a battle. It takes away the action in the battle and it's more like Old Gramps telling us the action when he ate amala without his artificial teeth! If y' would see my previous, you'd see i stated clearly what i liked in a game.

hmmm. well, this may be a waste of time, since, to an extent, an rpg can be a labour of love, and if you are biased beforehand you may never 'get' it.
however it may help to note that ff10 is one of the worst games to play if you are just getting into RPGs. It is aimed at die hard *final fantasy* fans and not neccesarily rpg fans in general. I was bored stiff by it- i actually fell asleep with the controller in hand on 2 occasions before i had to throw the game away. I hear that ff12 is amazing, but the same was said about ff10, and i hear it uses one rubbish semi-real-time system, so i suspect the noise is all about graphics. Finally LOTR:BFME is not an RPG, so it doesnt count. Its a strategy game and i for one can't stand turnbased strategy- for strategy i prefer realtime simply because I lack patience and don't enjoy the parent board games (chess and risk)
also, 70% of the enjoyment of playing an rpg comes from the story. If you find the story to be childish or annoying, you can't just ignore it like u can for an action game.
when you play a good rpg, you will realise that the menu-based system is, in fact, the best for that class of game. This is because the games are direct descendatnts of an old board game called 'dungeons and dragons' by TSR hobbies, and the menu system is transplanted directly from there- but with the computer doing the dice rolling and maths for you- thus enabling the complexity to be increased many times with little effort!
You like ayo opon so much, i guess you do have the patience for a board game, so maybe you may still give rpg's a shot. If you discover them to be to your liking, just think, another of the good things of life is made available to you. A new hobby/distraction can only improve the quality of our lives in this godforsaken country where everything is just upside down and a man has to think about survival every waking minute.

Whats all this about ff10 being crap  Originally, i wasnt a fan of rpgs but when my girlfriend bought me ff10 (didnt dare throw it away because she'd have killed me), i decided to give it a shot because i had nuffing else doing. Long and short of it, i played it to the end and maaaaan, i was hooked. I totally ignored the tidus fellow (main character) and developed the yuna chick and Auron. My belief is the bigger the sword, the heavier the punishment!
Its not a bad game really but i've heard ff8 wallops it hands down with eyes closed. Even the new one on ps3 is looking sleek but i think i'll stick to real time combat. Anybody have an idea when Tekken 6 & SC 4 will be released on the ps3? I'm champing at the bit ,

Well, ff10 isnt a crap game from a purely objective standpoint.
However to anyone that has prior (general) experience with RPGs, it is terrible
And to most final fantasy fans, it is not very good in comparision to the others.
Thats because it is greatly simplified. This makes it easy to pick up for newbies, but frustrating for long time players. It seems never to leave 'tutorial mode' and all of a sudden you've finished the game.
If you like the story/cutscenes you're in for a treat. However I found the voice-acting poor and the story boring. Usually that isnt a problem, because the gameplay makes up for it, but ff10, too easy, no depth. The guy that claimed rpgs are just about repeatedly pressing one button over and over would NOT be convinced otherwise by ff10.
even square realised this, hence the side-quests and 'endless mode' stuff crammed in after the fact.
strangely enough, if you try to leave the beaten path, as per sphere upgrades, the game suddenly becomes incredibly hard, so hard that you may totally screw up your party and have to start again. Since 'tutorial mode' is so long, this is of course a hellish experience,
I'm happy u enjoyed ff10, however if u want to introduce a newbie to ff, 10 may not be the ideal game to do it with!
tekken 6, any time soon. sc4, no news.
