Sticking to a rather narrow definition of RPGs and excluding roguelikes:

Ultima 7
Gothic 2
Baldur's Gate 2

lol you are discriminating jrpgs?
thats against any law
I find eastern style better than western style. And they have really good characters
I find.
 
A narrow definition of RPGs can exclude JRPGs on the basis that JRPGs have established characters rather than customized characters. Originally, role-playing meant creating your own characters and acting like them in a fictionalized world. That definition has expanded to include JRPGs, because we now perceive role-playing to include playing with pre-determined characters within a linear story.

I find that JRPGs generally contain better linear storylines (and sometimes characters) than Western RPGs; I also like their artstyle. However, Western RPGs are supremely better than JRPGs when it comes to customization and the open-world setting; I also like the fact that Western RPGs have generally trended towards what can be conceived of more mature (sexual or violent) themes and can create evocatively grim/gritty settings that can't be replicated with an Eastern style.

I still hate the fact that JRPGs generally contain the same (linear) storyline of teenager protagonist must save the world/country from an overlord from another dimension/evil kingdom/demons using magical crystals/orbs/other glowing objects.

I'm not sure that's a terribly helpful thing to say, you know.
 
No one hates you, although some people really don't like jrpgs. However, I think carmen510 more or less nailed it. While there are some Japanese RPGs with mature themes most of them don't seem terribly mature (although Western RPGs aren't a lot more mature either).
 
but you let me hate you becuz
you just mock and discriminating too
thats where you hurt me becuz I like easternstyled rpgs more than origin western meaning of rpgs
and they do not suck me, you people suck me in that
becuz you show hate

They teach you English in German schools? I wish my school had a German class. All we have is Spanish and sign language. :(
 
Well I did have fun in the class. They used to have French, but now Spanish is required, due to our towns large Spanish speaking and Hispanic demographics.

sure you have English in Germany as first foreign language since English is the world language followed up by a choice between latin and french as second

America be the actual World power after British empire of last century but you dont tell where you from since you say in your country spanish is first foreign language

spanish would still be main in central to south american countries but nowhere else

Uh... Every person in the world who lives in a nation where English is not the first language WILL learn English in school. I'm pretty sure English is part of the default curriculum of almost every school in the world located in a "non-english country".

My next language is Spanish.
 
MajKira, your self-loathing aside, your English won't get any better by using pet spellings for various words. Like anything, you get better by doing it properly and frequently. :)
