"My only comment is that unlike what you said about Fable2 vs KOTOR is I wish all RPGs would go the KOTOR way, not the Fable or Mass Effect or Fallout way, KOTOR was just PERFECT!!! Shame on Bioware for wasting their time on an MMO instead of KOTOR3..."
I'd have to agree. I don't understand what the OP means when he says that he'd rather RPGs went the Fable 2 route than the KOTOR route. So future RPGs should take a note from the way in which Fable 2 handles things? Really? Fable 2? RPGs? The OP wants roleplaying games to follow Fable 2's generic action/RPG mindlessness, set in a stale fantasy world full of uninteresting and shallow NPC characters, at the expense of KOTOR's brand of meaningful decision-making and interaction with NPCs? Well, each to their own. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion and all that but, frankly, the opinion that Fable 2 is a better RPG than the original KOTOR is simply wrong, and the OP is obviously on some sort of drugs (and I want some now, because they must be pretty decent to cause this level of insanity). There is no contest between Fable 2 and KOTOR, with regards to which is the better RPG (or even to which is the better game). Fable 2 is not an RPG. It's an action game with lightweight RPG elements tacked on, like Zelda or fucking Castle Crashers. How anyone, never mind a self-proclaimed RPG aficionado, can sing the praises of frigging Fable 2 whilst bad-mouthing the far superior KOTOR is just beyond me.
The Witcher got an Enhanced Edition, not Extended. No Wii games on the staff lists? You guys need to expand your gaming horizons a little bit if you haven't experienced -- or appreciated -- the likes of Mario Kart Wii, De Blob, No More Heroes, World of Goo, Lost Winds, Boom Blox, PES 08 & Super Smash Bros Brawl, or Okami and many classic VC games, as ports are apparently good to go here (Chrono Trigger).
What's he talking about? Fallout 3 was the shit. I loved VATS! I spent my entire Xmas vacation playing Fallout 3. I haven't even started the other games. I'm not sure when I will since Fallout 3 is a massive RPG. Rather than finish the main game, I've been running around trying to find every location & exploring it once I find it. It's surprisingly time consuming, but in a good way. I don't even think I've explored half of what is out there & I've clocked in about 60 hours on the game already.
