Cause I copyied all those pics off the web, only 2 from each site though, and if yo made, then I'll take it down or do whatever you want, I would have asked the people who's sites I got my pics from but I can't rememeber them all...Well, if you did make it, then I'll take it down if ya want me to, and sorry...

Man, my favorite rpg is Mario. I love upgrading mario with shrooms, and interacting with goombas when I stomp on them, and getting to level 8 is awsome. Oh, and playing the role of Mario is the best!


Now lets see if anyone got that...

Oh yeah, just to make it clear, I am not talking about Mario RPG, although that is a cool game.

Hate To Brake It To Ya But Mario Platfrom Isn't an Rpg

Post by LordPhoenix » Fri Nov 29, 2002 1:34 am

Maybe by the loosest standards of rpg but...comon. And by the way, I think that Mario Rpg wasn't all that great, but does my oppinon matter? Nope.

i love classic turn based rpgs or a semi hybrid like Grandia or Legia .....i would say Suikoden 3 but i havent played so im guessing it still uses the classic system.
The name is Gambit....remember it!

Yeah, those were two good rpgs. Humm..I too wonder what type Suikoden 3 is? O well, without some mysteries, what is there in life?

The point I was TRYING to make is that by "loose" standards, ANY VIDEO GAME IS AN RPG! I have NEVER seen a game where you are the main character. EVER.
But then again, why would you play a game to be yourself when you could do that in real life? It might be cool, ya know, to do things you wouldn't in real life though, but that is besides the point.

The point is, there can be no "loose" standards for an rpg. There are exact definitions. For example, the reason age limits are not lessened is because, "Come on, im 17! let me smoke legally! I'm almost 18!" and then, if it was lowered, "Come on, im 16! Let me smoke legally! I'm almost 17!" and so on.

Loose standards beget looser standards.
I would vomit and cry, hell, throw in shitting and pissing, at the same time if Doom ever became considered an RPG...

That is why I don't consider Zelda to be an RPG. Cuz if I did, then I would have to throw in Sonic Adventure, Banjo-Kazooie, and then Donkey Kong Country.

Holy shit, I was going to try to rephrase that just now, but I have no idea what I was thinking, damn I'm tired. The rest is all good though.
