For me, it's Runescape. NEVER play it. Don't even try it. Ever.

This is flaming waiting to happen...

You, sir, have absolutely zero taste. Runescape is the greatest game ever made. Get out of here.

On a serious note, topics like this do get too heated, so this will probably get closed.

How can you say Runescape is terrible. You can play it free! I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinons though.

Cancer is free too, but it's pretty terrible.

I really disliked Legaia 2.

:rofl:


Two Worlds.

Runescape is not a bad game. It is the community that is bad. I played runescape from 2001-2005 and those years of the game were some of the most fun I ever had in an MMO. But things took a turn for the worst when they went "3D". Children came in by the droves and the community is now nothing but 8-12 year olds.

I'd say Two worlds... I spent 70 bucks on that piece of garbage hoping it was Oblivion 2. Boy oh boy was I dissapointed.

I enjoyed "Fable" in some ways, but there are some weird things in that game that come across as if the devs were trying to sabotage their own game. The bit about getting a halo and butterflies if you're good, for example, or people applauding and shouting "Yay".

Two Worlds is kind of fun if you don't pay full price for the game and know what you're getting into. The combat with the orcs wasn't that bad, and you collect a lot of armor and weapons. It's not in the same league as a Bethesda or Bioware game of course.

I found that Gothic 2 wasn't my cup of tea, although it had its moments too.

Meh. Runescpae isn't that bad. Only mediocre to decent in term of gameplay and it helps if one is playing with real life friend. Plus, its my window to what the internet has to offer for a first timer for me, long times ago.

As for the worst RPG I ever play, I don't think I play enough RPG games to know which is that bad. The only RPG I know I could not play even if I tried after 5 time in different time span is Final Fantasy 8. Something about the Draw System just doesn't make me enjoy the game at all.

I actually rather enjoyed my time in Runescape. The grinding may make most sane people want to claw their eyes out, but the quests are fun and well written (and very tongue in cheek) and I met some really great people, some of whom I continue to stay in contact with over MSN long after we all quit the game. I think it's a case of how high your expectations are, really.

RPGs that I hate... I honestly can't think of any. I tend to inform myself pretty well about games before I buy them so I'm rarely disappointed, and RPGs are an extra careful purchase.

That said, though, I loathe Fable 3 for demolishing one of my fondest childhood franchises. Also, inb4 Fable fan hate.

I guess I'm lucky enough that I've only ever played good RPG's. It's the only genre, along with Adventure, where I've yet to disappoint myself. I'm sure that's partly due to luck, partly due to a lack of consistent activity in gaming, and partly due to a discerning taste.

For the record, the RPGs I've played are: Daggerfall, Morrowind, Oblivion, Fallouts 1-3, Planescape: Torment, KOTOR 1 and 2, Neverwinter Nights 2, Final Fantasy 7 and the various Mario "RPGs".

If it's an MMORPG, I hate it on principle.

Aside from that, Neverwinter Nights 2. What a crock this was, absolutely nothing good about. Sluggish pace, [censored] interface, outdated controls, looks like ass despite high system requirements, crummy ally AI, annoying characters, and a story with every single bad fantasy RPG cliche thrown in.

I know it's not a popular sentiment around these parts, but I just don't care for Bethesda games anymore. I wouldn't say hate, that's a strong word, but many of their staples just don't agree with me these days.

The games typically have great stories on paper, with decent lore (from what I've seen) and some nice music. On the other hand, those great stories are typically told in-game in ways that fail to hold my interest. Characters seem so flat. Be it their animations, voice acting or just general design, they all run together and aside from only a few of the most notable characters in the game, aren't unique or memorable in any way. The player character, being of you own design, doesn't feel like part of the story or world. I've always felt like I was just along for the ride, a floating camera that kills things every now and then. The expansive, open worlds feels empty and lifeless.

Now, before he inevitable "why are you here?", back in 2006 when I registered I was very excited for Oblivion. I played Oblivion to completion, and eventually did the same for Fallout 3. After which I lost my taste for that sort of gameplay. These days I stick to Community Discussion.

Couple others I don't really like:

Final Fantasy XII
Secret of Evermore
Suikoden IV

World of Warcraft
Fable series
Two Worlds
Every Final Fantasy after VI
Every JRPG after the SNES in fact

In addition, Mass Effect is retardedly overrated.

Or just every RPG after 1999.

Worst RPG I ever played was Evolution Worlds on the Gamecube. I understand that JRPGs take a little while to get going, but they're at least somewhat fun to play (if you enjoy them that is).

I didn't make it out of the tutorial dungeon by the time I was bored stiff. I finished the tutorial, turned it off, and popped in a different game. Played that piece of junk for around 30 minutes, and hated every second of it.

How could you not like Secret of Evermore? That game was freaking epic!

Hmm, Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. Worst rpg ever made, hands down. Other then that, I don't think I've ever played an RPG that I didn't like in one way or another

Hmm, the worst RPG I've played must be Quest 64. Yuck!

I was drawn in by the premise, which I still love, but the dialogue basically amounted to cheesy quotes from fictitious B-movies. The gameplay emulated Secret of Mana just swell, but I didn't like the level design nearly as much. Not really a terrible game per se, but I was still pretty disappointed with a good amount of it.

Hm final fantasy legends I didn't like and I didn't like dragon age ether yes I just said it . It was just boring for me . Also, OP I loved runescape in the years back going back and forth to kamajri fishing swordfish to sell or training against the demons in the vocano there. I just wish the quests weren't so long though that was my major problem. Damn I wonder how many time in days I just sat watching my character catch fish , I don't even want to know.

World of Warcraft.
And well thats the only bad RPG I have ever played.

I have bad memories of NWN2, very buggy and not a lot of freedom. I hear that the later patches and expansions improved the game, but I'm not willing to try to find out (especially when I have so many other games to play).

I might mention Gothic 2, but only because I really dislike the leveling system changes introduced by the expansion pack, and the clunky combat. Aside from that, it's quite good.

Fable 2, Two Worlds and Arcania: Gothic 4, couldn't even finish them.

(Mass Effect 2 earns a special mention even though I don't even consider it an RPG, but it is advertised as such so...)

Fable 3.
fable 2 was disappointing, because my expectations were high after fable 1 (which i liked), but it wasn't terrible.
Maybe its just my fault for thinking it would get better instead of worse.

Fallout 3 was pretty terrible. Thank goodness for F:NV otherwise FO3 would have just left a terrible taste in my mouth with the Fallout series.

Oblivion in some ways though on the whole it wasn't as bad as I first thought. There are still many aspects of the game that make me cringe though.

Quest 64-If you played it you understand the pain

Baldurs Gate and Champions of Norrath for the PS2. The PC version for Baldurs Gate looks much better but I couldn't really say as I haven't played it. All I know is that these games were really boring and had all they were essentially about was killing hordes of stuff.
