The last RPG I beat was Tales of the Abyss.  I enjoyed the beginning of it with the main character(forgot his name) being a stuck up bastard all the time.  But I hated how he ends up getting all emo at the end.  The RPG I'm currently playing is Rogue Galaxy but I haven't had the time to play it lately because school.  I made it to Planet Alisia but I think that's just a sidequest...

Been playing a lot of Rogue Galaxy. Trying to beat it at the moment. I never finish any of my RPGs though. I was playing FF12 frequently, but I just gave up on it. I might start over on it...but I don't feel like it.

I'm in the process of playing FFXII, but it's so boring and dull that I'm forcing myself to play it at this point. I don't see what's so special about the plot, the plot is one of the worst aspects of the game.

Yeah the plot sucked to me too but I still found the game to be good because of the amount of exploration usually not seen in JRPGs & the gameplay (I found it to be alot more fun if you only use Gambits for repetitive tasks & do everything else manually). I wouldn't put it up there with FFVI or even VII but it was definately better than FFX.

The last RPG game I've played was a while ago called "Project1" running under RPGVX.

Isn't RPGVX not out until february?

The Japanese demo is out now.

The last RPG I played would be Breath of Fire 2, I guess, but that's already six weeks ago. I'm going to play Tactics Ogre if I can get it to run properly.

The last real RPG I played was Arcanum. I would have been playing this for the last six weeks if it weren't for the fact that it gives me an error every time I try to save. I've tried reinstalling it, patching it, reinstalling and patching it, but it didn't help. I love that game, even though I never made it past Tarant even before the save bug cropped up.

I thought the plot was excellent. To me it felt alot more clear and alot less "OMG I HAS A SWORD!!!!999999 DAMAGE!!!!". I thought Vayne was an excellent antagonist and the whole story to me felt alot more open and alot less anime-ish( I swear, every time I play FFVII and VIII, I feel like I'm watching a godamn anime) To me the whole aspect of the game really took me by surprise. The fact that the story didn't revolve around Vaan but was merely being seen from his point of view really cought my attention. I honestly felt that every aspect of this game surpassed anything I expected. To be fair, I honestly thought that Square was just going to cave in and make FFVII part2. I am ridiculously happy that they decided not to. I would personally place it way above FFVII, but VI is still above this game in story. Gameplay wise, this game for me definitely made me happy. I have to agree with you on the exploration factor. The world on this game feels so vast and alive, I just can't stop playing this game. Seriously, Well over 100 hours. Each to his own I guess.

I just picked up Unlimited Saga, I haven't really played it that long but it seems really confusing.

Now by "real RPG" you mean "played with dice on a tabletop?" =P

Soul Nomad for me. I don't know if I like it quite as much as the usual Nippon Ichi fair. Some of the concepts are pretty neat, but I like having more control over my individual units than that....it's part of the reason I never got into Ogre Battle even though I loved Tactics Ogre.

Those are some very good points all of which I'm gonna have to agree with you on (although I like my RPGs kinda anime-ish). FFXII's story was alot less shall I say far-fetched or out there than FFVII's story. I just felt while playing the game like most of the time it was just an excuse to run to the other side of Ivalice.

I agree about FF12. Though I still think FF7 has a better story (clearly so), I definitely like FF12's story and the approach to it.

Herro.
The rast RPG I prayed was Persona 3.

I'm still playing it... third play-through. Kind of obsessed.

FF12 - This morning

I'm trying to force myself to beat it so I can move on other stuff. But Jesus, 45 hours and still nothing interesting has happened.

...

And I so want Persona 3.

You're going to be disappointed with Persona 3.

i like the game despite how dreadful it is, but i again got stuck at that fucking final boss and have stopped playing the game again.

i cannot learn life lessons apparently!

The final boss is a bastard, is he not? Quick way to defeat him: Get the Overdrive spell and hack away at him.

I actually loaded up Romancing SaGa MS too, because I'm trying to finish the Thief's quest so I can have Dowd as a permanent party member with everyone else do the damn Emperor's Illness quest to get that Fatestone. 

Now by "real RPG" you mean "played with dice on a tabletop?" =P

Nah, I'd have used 'true RPG' for that, or perhaps 'genuine RPG'. It's just that I don't consider JRPGs to be RPGs.
