RPG without magic?

Im starting to get tired of RPG's all based around fantasy and magic..

For example, I was playing Lost Odyssey and one of the creatures of the stupid battle I was fighting

was a Book!?!?!

I was fighting some type of magical enhanced Book... absoluty ridiculous.

I hate Harry Potter and his little magic wizz nerds,

Its a shame they dont make more RPG's without all the fantasy just to change things up abit..

Im gunna have to play through Mass Effect for teh 4th time, that is about as sensible as a RPG as you can get.

Hmmm

So a book is odd yet space aliens are normal?

Something tells me the pot is too busy calling the kettle black

Oh I get it

One completely made up imaginary being is "more real" then another made up imaginary character

Again, the kettle is being called black

[QUOTE="Jaysonguy"][QUOTE="simo98088"] I said Mass Effect is about as sensible as it gets.. Space Aliens are a little more easy to digest then an enchanted book.. Sounds like your a LO and FF fan who got there feelings hurt.vashkey

I'm saying one pretend creature isn't more believable then another

He's having an easier time with aliens because as we know aliens are so commonplace. Just the other day I was looking for Isotoner gloves for a gift but they all had 2 fingers. When I asked the sales lady about this she said "oh I'm sorry we got our shipments mixed up with our Neptune location, we get more next Tuesday"

A talking book is no different then a walking talking alien lizard.

I'd try Mass Effect. Though as others have noted, the differences are superficial. You could plop Mass Effect into a D&D setting with minimal changes.Palantas

I got Fallout 3, so far so good, no enchanted books have been attacking me.simo98088

LOL you honestly think its more believable in a game to be fighting a BOOK rather than an ALIEN

WOWOWOWOWOWOWO

Get over it.simo98088

If you could comprehend my message, I was agreeing with you that fighting a book is riduculous

[QUOTE="Jaysonguy"][QUOTE="vashkey"] So you're saying that an unexplained power from no where is easier to believe than a being that isnt human?eagles_band

Awesome, you live where there's creatures from other worlds

I was unaware that was possible but as you pointed out aliens are real while a talking book is not

I come from a land where aliens and talking books are not real.

Have you tried Fallout 3?Andrn

haha... man your defending your enchanted books pretty hard.. Do you dream of marrying one? Is that it?

That's not a rebuttal. I'd call that an appeal-to-motive fallacy, but I think that's giving it too much credit. You're having a hard time making a simple point, so I'll help you out here:

Aliens in science fiction are beings that could conceivably exist, given our present understanding of science. A magical book is just that: Magical. It explicitly defies the laws of physics, and therefore cannot exist in our world. (Unless you want to pull that "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" line, which is just a cop-out.) One pull of science fiction over fantasy (for some people, anyway) is the enhanced realism that comes from the fact that it could happen. Mass Effect attempts to incorporate Earth's real history, suggesting that the events in its fiction could occur in our future. The Lord of the Rings, for example, does not. In that sense, an alien is more realistic than a magical book.

I'm talking about game worlds. I haven't played many games with talking books as enemies, because developers aren't that stupid, but aliens are a normal thing in games

I have the game for you,

Stickman RPG :-)

Great logic there. To defend something, which he wasn't even doing, you must be in love with the thing you are defending. That's why so many defense attourneys have affairs with their clients. Fact.
