argh....don't get me started on that again! hehe

look, it's an rpg because it has story line which deaply involves the characters, with characters changing emotions views...bla bla bla... even your character urgh...I don't want to explain this whole thing again...

Uhm... Morrowind anyone? It's the damn best Action RPG I've played in ages. And also it's not just the action, it really is Role-Playing. That's probably the best about it.

I like Turn-Based RPGs too (Grandia II playing right now, it may look old, but still is pretty cool). But Action RPGs are more about, guess, the action. What I like about the Turn based ones, is that you're able to do more tactics.

Peace out,

Mr Oni
In EQ you do have to wait your turn to attack... it won't let you attack twice in a row unless you are fast or your enemy is slow right?? You wait your turn...

Its based on your weapon and skills. A warrior for example with double attack and dual wield and quick weapons can get 5 hits on someone with a slow two hander. I dont call that waiting a turn its all taking place at the same time. Your hitting him and hes either blocking or hes seeing how much damage hes taking. Nobody is waiting in line to take a turn.
But it's the same with PSO/ Diablo-type games which are just more based on YOUR stamina not just your characters... coarse in EQ you can actively dodge but (archers etc would do it alot)... Abort Retry Fail??

I used alot more of stamina playing eq than I ever did playing pso. number 1 is for kicking number 2 is for slamming number 3 is for taunting the enemy to make him pay attention to me.

[quote="Roke"]Everquest isn't a game.

It's a waste of time.
How so? Your grandma would probably say any video game is a waste of time.

True. The game is so damn cool, I never happen to over-play it. I just finished it with my first character, a warmage, and now I'm up with a new one, a thief-marksman, and it is a complete another gameing expierience this time than it was with my mage. I mean, the first time I just floated and killed monsters from above and such things, and now I try to not be seen and catch as most items I can to get a lil money, and do things for the thieves guild...

And the TES Construction set is the best! There are so many damn fine plugins out for Morrowind, and they fit perfectly into the main story, and the engine!

Peace out,
