Please....
I feel like playing one.
Planescape: Torment
10 years old now, probably found for cheap.

Thanks, but I'm already playing that. :teddyr:
Unfortunatley, I got stuck...
Oblivion.
I second Newt on that one. If you get the game of the year edition, you have got a TON of playtime and an amazing variety of quests and monsters.
Fallout 2

Thanks, but I've already finished that. (Well, except the expansions).
I just got Morrowind though...to bad it crashes all the time.

Fallout 2
You know, I never did finish that either.
It bugged out at one point, and I was stuck.
Shadowman. It's got a good, spooky atmosphere, and I had a lot of fun playing it. I doubt you'd still be able to find it, but it was a very fun game for me.

I hated that game. It was the console port for the original PS though.

I never played it on PS, so I don't know how well the port worked. The PC version had its quirks, and it was by no means a perfect game technically, but it had a nice feel to it, and it took me a while to beat it, so I felt like it gave me my money's worth.

It was mainly the controls which were really awkward and made the character movement seem stubborn. Plus, the graphics were very ropey, like the frame rate really struggled to keep up and overall it was always too dark.

I used to own the PS version, and yes, I can verify that it sucks huge, infected donkey balls. I eventually wound up buying the Dreamcast version and finding that one amusing, but I've also heard the N64 version is really good. The controls in both were better than the PS version and the graphics moved more smoothly, so you weren't killed during obstacle jumping scenes where the animation would skip a beat and cause you to plummet to your death.
on OBLIVION, the SHivering Isles Expansion is actually, IMO, more fun than the main quest.
I am playing Morrowind right now, downstairs on my mom's old PC. While the graphics are dated, it has one of the most engaging storylines of any RPG I have ever played. Right now I am in the tower of a Telvanni Wizard trying to get cured of Corprus disease - and stealing the place blind while I'm at it!

What kind of character are you playing? I'm a khajit thief.
Also, do you have a problem with crashing?
I can't seem to fix mine.

I played Morrowind with my husband on XBox. It
was fun for a while but my husband ruined it by boringly organizing and sorting massive amounts of loot in random caves for HOURS on end. :bluesad:.
I've done Oblivion as a Khagit rogue, a Breton battlemage, and a Nord barbarian.
Morrowind doesn't really crash, per se, but everynow and then it does just shut down for no apparent reason. I make sure to sleep or wait often, so I always have a recent autosave. I just got my Wood Elf knight cured of Corpus disease and plundered the heck out of Tel Fyr while I was at it. I'm rich now!! Had enough $$, plus a grand soul gem I loaded up with a Golden Saint, to enchant an amulet with +23 to 25 strength. I can carry 730 pounds of loot now!!
Hee hee . . . need to go raid a big ol' stronghold somewhere!

OK that did remind me of the time I enchanted a pair of pants to give off so much light that it was almost harder to see with the light than in the dark.. that was pretty cool.
I usually do my first two garments with strength, then turn some amulet or ring into a huge flashlight for caves, Dwemer ruins, and Daedric shrines.
Can't wait for Elder Scrolls V !!
Dragon Age origins is a awesome rpg and if you want something old school look for Buldurs Gate 1&2. Those three games can keep you occupied for easily a full year.
Icewind Dale. Loads of fun, and you can build your own party.
Neverwinter Nights
Septerra Core
I've heard Grim Fandango is good
One to avoid: Ancient Evil. Think Diablo, except with a hunger bar. Oh, and you almost never find food anywhere.
But another older Diabloish one I ddn't mind: Nox.
TBG-29V with thermobaric rounds . . .
. . .or din't You mean Rocket-propelled grenade ?

Very good.
I agree. Not an RPG, but well worth playing.
I'll jump on this bandwagon. It was a toss-up between Max and Manny for my avatar picture. And perhaps Guybrush Threepwood from the Monkey Island series.
Portal?
I'll second any Fallout recommendations. I am in the mood for an RPG myself. Someting not too elfy-dwarfy, but I don't mind fantasy.
I suggest playing both Fallouts with the unofficial patch. Especially Fallout 2. Fallout 2 with the patch has a ton of new and fixed quests, and like 1000 bug fixes (I'm not really exaggerating, it's literally like 1000 bug fixes). You can also get a bunch of new endings - including the one I wanted most, the ability to save the intelligent Deathclaws!

Mancomb Seepgood would be a great username.

Thanks!
I WILL start it all over again....I'm gonna finish that game!
It's way too good to bail out of it...
