I don't really know. I usually play an rpg for a few hours, start another rpg, play for a few hours,
start another rpg, play for a few hours, and continue the first. Repeat process.

I guess... Either Grandia or Tales of Symphonia. These two I actually finished more than once.

I started playing FFT's remake on PSP two weeks ago or so. I have played Final Fantasy 9 and Jeanne d'Arc recently as well. I got my PS2 back yesterday so I'm going to be replaying Suikoden 3 soon!

Mass Effect, I just bought it today. For those who are contemplating buy it, I would suggest it since it is a great game.

Revenant Wings.

I don't like how they seemingly lowered the targeted age of players for this game, but other than that, it's probably the best Final Fantasy game to date, gameplay wise. Everything is streamlined and looks great. Enemies can be hard to target with clustered, but your units luckily auto-attack.

Rings of Fate.

Kinda stopped playing it because I want to experience the story in a language I can comprehend, but it's still a fantastic game and yet another testament to how much power there is to draw out of the NDS.

FFTA2.

Didn't play it a lot because it's too text heavy, but seems a lot like FFTA. But I am looking forward to playing it in English.

FFT: The Lion War.

The story, dialogue and FMVs are all mindblowingly fantastic. Yet the difficulty and slow gameplay makes it annoying to play, so I didn't complete it.

Man...I played FF12 for about 65 hours and then my 3 year old brother completely wiped my PS2 memory card, taking out Valkyrie Profile 2 and KH2 pre-final boss saves with it, as well as the FF12 one. Ever since, I haven't been able to get myself to replay that huge part I already did. What exactly didn't you like about the battle/leveling up system though?

(By the way, I love that signature under your avatar. It makes me feel happy.)

On-Topic: Last RPG I played was probably Rogue Galaxy. Very mediocre RPG but I got through it just because I was so close to the end before I realized that it was just a "meh" game. Before that it was Valkyrie Profile 2, which sucked pretty bad compared to the first. Got to the end of it but never finished it due to the whole memory card wipe issue.

I didn't like it because it mimiced an MMO's battle system far too much. It was as if I was playing FF11 again; and that is a time in my life I want to forget.

"Gambits" the whole auto attack thing, and the ability board were the worst offenders. There are far better ways of promoting unique character growth than having a blank checker board and telling the player "spend points on stuff and maybe you'll get something good".

I've been playing a few games that kind-of-but-not-really qualify as RPGs lately, like Paper Mario, Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, and Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones all in the past month.

The last REAL RPG I've played is Earthbound over the summer, and it's also the last RPG I've beaten.

Yeah, it reminded me of FFXI as well. I kinda wish FFXI's battle system was like FFXII's. It'd have been much better that way. I hated Gambits as well, but I got fast enough in XII to be able to control all of my characters pretty decently in tough fights, so it wasn't that big of an issue for me. I usually only used 3-4 gambits...one to attack the party leader's target, one to use healing spells, and one to use items if the character was out of MP. The license system wasn't that bad either. It was very easy to gain points and fill out the entire board (especially later in the game with that double AP accessory). It's true that you didn't know what was where exactly, but there was some order to it so if you wanted spells for example, you knew which direction to go in.

Mass Effect.

Shadow Hearts: Covenent, it was ALOT better than I expected. I wanna play its prequels & sequel now. I think my next RPG will probably be Wild Arms 3. I've also been playing Oblivion on XBox 360 since the Game of the Year version came out. This is probably the best RPG I've ever played. I'm near 200 hours & I've still got things to do (not counting the fact that I haven't even been to the Shivering Isles yet) but you know what? It's so fun I don't even care.

FFXII is the last one I played, although in the last week I've played FFXII, FFXII:RW, Super Paper Mario, FF6, Puzzle Quest (RPGish), and probably a couple more I can't remember at 12:30 in the morning...I like playing a lot of games at once.
