In other news... DG stated the obvious: >>> I'm not into role playing. I had such games since the mid eighties. >>> Stuff Like Ultima. I just never got into it. I love turn based >>> strategy and things like SimCity. >> >> Japanese RPG's aren't quite similar to stuff like Ultima. And also, >> most of the battles tend to be turn-based. But then again, I do hate >> SimCity. > Talking about a Cultuurbarbaar! I have to agree. Japanese RPGs are very involved and story-rich, with nice scenery and characters. Some are turn based/tactical, which can be fun - especially when you want to dominate! I don't hate sim games. I actually have a whole set of Sim games, and quite enjoy some of the building and tycoon ones (SimSafari - which I still play, and Zoo Tycoon - which I love playing) but I never got into "the Sims". RPGs are more strategical than you think, and they require some brains to figure out complex puzzles, at times. Give the list a try, at least!
