My thoughts exactly.

I wouldn't be surprised if in another 3-4 years time, this thread will reappear and people will declare WoW old school. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

It's because FF7 marked the turning point to all FF game's male characters to begin looking like 12 year old girls.

Ultima 4, 7 & 7.5 are the shizzle...

Suprised pc gamers have not mentioned Dungeon Master. That game blew my mind back in the day. Also I loved Wizardry VI: Bane of the Cosmic. But these are old school.It's been a while since I have had the chance to truly enjoyed a RPG.

Darklands, I love this game & still do. It was one of the 1st games I had on my 386DX. I'd rate this 2nd to Oblivion as me fave rpg.

Ultima Underworld II was pretty cool too.

Has anyone here played legend of Legaia for PS1? I really enjoyed that game. The story was quite engaging.

I've beat a lot of games in this thread, including pretty much all the FFs, and while ff3 (6) is a great game and ff7 is maybe my favorite game of all time (with some admitted bias going into that beacause of when I played it)...

Based on your posts in this thread I reccomend FF Tactics. Great strategy leveling and battling system and an underrated story line. Beating it without fighting any extra leveling battles is a good challenge.

Wow, I thought I was the only one who ever played this OLD, OLD game. It was freaking awesome, but so hard. Sweet game. If you're looking at other old-school RPGs, Betrayal at Krondor for the PC rocks, as long as you ignore the cheesey costumes.

I really really like that game but the combat is insanely difficult, basicly you have to spend hundreds of hours on random fights just to boost up your characters. I gave up at some point, I just couldn't beat the fights near the end anymore and was too tired of the grinding.
