Of all the rpg games I have,I only completed lost odyssey. I got lost odyssey,mass effect,oblivion,fallout 3 and fable 2. Took me 40+ hours to beat lost odyssey and I had the most fun playing it. Then when I play my other rpg's I get bored after 30 minutes? Whats wrong with me? Didnt those games score more than lost odyssey? I figured since they got a high score that I would like it. I keep buying games after game after game that have a higher score and never complete them. What reason is it that I had the most fun with lost odyssey and completed it out of all the rpg games I have?

There may be a chance that you have a preference toward Jrpgs and not Wrpgs. Try other jrpgs like lost odyssey. Oddly enough lost odyssey is one of the few rpgs i could not finish and I have all the rpgs you named and more. I sold it after a week of buying it.

Wow I thought I was the only one. I played Oblivion (50 hours), Fable 2 (20 hours), Fallout (20 hours), and while I enjoyed these games, I never finished them (Fable 2 I'm about 3/4 done). I think part of the reason is that LO guides me through (with an interesting story) while the other games just 'drop' you in.

Along the same line, I can not replay WRPG but the Mass Effect (may not be a WRPG to some). I have replayed a few JRPG and had more fun with them.

The only RPGs I've beaten in recent years are Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2. I'm eagerly awaiting the third game.

we all have different tastes. Theres no problem not liking certain games. For example i don't like god of war or many other hack n slash games. But i don't really care i find other games very fun.

Maybe you only like japanese rpgs. But then, if you give up on any rpg after just 30 minutes, you haven't really given it a chance.

I stopped playing Lost Odyssey after a few hours, bored the hell out of me anyhow, you don't like Oblivion, don't like Mass Effect 1 or 2, don't like Fable 2, don't like Fallout 3... kind of sounds like you just don't like games (kidding) if you want a good JRPG, play Persona 3 and Persona 4, it'll make you want to burn your copy of Lost Odyssey

You have just discovered the difference between JRPGs and WRPGs.

You're probably more fond of JRPGs and Adventure games.

Pick up Tales Of Vesperia for XB360.

In my opinion, it's the best JRPG available on the system.

i may be misunderstanding you, but if not the best piece of advice i can give that i havent seen is quite simple: dont buy games just because of the score, do lots of research.

Lost Odyssey is seriously brilliant.You're probably getting swept by the hype of all the other more highly rated games and your expectations going in are much higher than when you played LO.Personally Lost Odyssey is 1 of the best games I've played and I think it is a stunning game and an absolute classic,on the same level as FF10,Golden Sun and Chrono Trigger.
