IYO? I chose the worst RPGs that everyone agrees are garbage. So which is the worst RPG of the last decade?

It's a tough decision. FFVIII was completely broken, Jade Empire had awful combat, LO was just a disaster, Radiata Stories was bad too, and Tales of Symphonia had the worst gameplay of almost any JRPG to date.

I'd have to say Tales of Symphonia, just because it sucked in every department, while at least most of the others actually had a decent story to go along with them.

We get it, you don't like JRPG...

Anyway I'd say Metal Dungeon.

Bioshock, but only because it called itself an RPG but then forgot to actually add any role playing.

If you want to see your threads get into double digit pages, it doesn't pay to be reasonable, or even real. Exhibit A through F... F standing for fakeboy.

If you really want to play a horrible I mean horrible rpg go play lunar dragon song. Somebody choke me to death before I play that game. Running away and losing hit points what a dumb idea. If I was making the game I would fire the whole design team and start over from scratch. The game should not even have the name lunar attached to that game.

I agree 100%. You can't even choose for yourself which monster you want to attack during a battle, either. :|

mjarantilla

your opinion is wrong in my opinion..

And your opinion that my opinion is wrong is wrong in my opinion.

but in my opinion my opinion can't be defeated. I have one final thing I want you to consider. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a wookie from the planet Kashyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense! Why would a Wookiee, an eight-foot tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor, with a bunch of two-foot tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! Look at me. I'm a lawyer defending a major record company, and I'm talkin' about Chewbacca! Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense! None of this makes sense! And so you have to remember, when you're in that jury room deliberatin' and conjugatin' the Emancipation Proclamation, [approaches and softens] does it make sense? No! Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, it does not make sense! If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests.

that is why my opinion is correct...

What does this poll imply i wonder ?

Anyway, FF12 hands down, worst RPG i have EVER played, or TBH have not played, since you just move the heroes, and they do all the battles for you, WHAT A GARBAGE !!!!

FF12 is my pick by miles, nothing comes as close to NOT playing a game as this one, the next step is to make a script to move the heroes wihtout user input, so you can go on holiday, knowing FF12 will have finished itself when you get back, instead of having to wait in fron of your tv, doing nothing but moving one of the pad sticks forward

Nice list, all of those are great RPGs. How many of these threads are you going to make?

Anyway, worst I've played would have to be Orphen for the PS2.

No, that would be Oblivion.

The creator of Bioshock consistently stated that he was making a First Person Shooter.

I am not a huge elder scrolls fan, but I've at least seen them all (and played daggerfall somewhat extensively), and I don't understand why people say oblivion is not an RPG.

I prefer an RPG that actually has consequences for your choices. IMO, an RPG that allows you to rule all of the major international conglomerates (guilds) at the same time is not really an RPG.
