    Really want to start playing an rpg.Aint played one in ages, just be cs and what not.All the talk on here bout ff7 makes me want to play that, but i really dont see me getting past the start.

    Would love to play WOW, I played wc3roc alot but really dont have the time for WOW,just a single player game would be fine.

    So the question is , which RPG would you recommend?Wheater it old or new , have gamecube/ps1,put pc would be the best.

    Cheers Adam

    On PC I'd recommend NWN, or Morrowind.

    If you're looking for free ones then mosy on over to HotU and get Blood Omen, not as good as the other 2, but free:

    Knights of the old republic and morrowind for the pc havent played KORTOR II but i hear its really buggy, you can pick up morrowind for a tenner KORTOR is probablly going cheap now aswell

    The Original Knights of the old republic is far better than the sequel. Also FF7 is a must buy classic.

    *gasp*

    all these replies and no one has suggested Planescape:Torment?

    granted, it's hard to find but oh so rewarding...

    my top 5 crpg:
    1) planescape:torment
    2) star wars: KotoR
    3) fallout I/II
    4) Neverwinter Nights
    5) Baldurs Gate II

    Sorry, don't know how I missed this one...

    Also, I found Wizardry 8 to be a lot of fun. A very odd story, but a good solid game behind it.

    with all the plugins and mods for morrowind how could anyone get bored.
    ive seen morrowind Goty for the PC for €30 . Exclusive are supposed to release it next month so hopefully it will be much cheaper

    on the GC I would highly recommend Tales of symphonia, is extremely addictive and is a HUGE game, takes ages to complete.

    I'd advise Morrowind too. Although the sequel Oblivian is coming out in August
    I've heard.

    What alignment are these "women"?

    I'm guessing Chaotic Evil?

    Real life is overrated. You don't get to be obliterated by demiliches in real life. and I ask you sir why would a game be worth playing if you can't be imprisoned by a floating skull?
