    What's wrong with Jade Empire? Or Morrowind? Or the upcoming Oblivion? Granted, Morrowind's graphics aren't too great. But if someone's complaining about them, I can't see how they made it through some FF games.
    How disgusting

    The future of RPGs isn't worth worrying about.

    ToS doesn't suck. FFX doesn't suck. FFX-2 doesn't suck. FFXI doesn't suck. SO3 doesn't suck. Disgaea doesn't suck. I don't really get what you're trying to say.

    rpgs will die out. they will die out for the same reason platformers have. people demand more these days. things are becoming more and more close knit. before there was true definition between platformer and action. now the line is blurred. rpg's will go the same way. the turn based system is already on the way out. character building has crossed genre via gta.

    in a view years only 3 genres will really exist. action, driving and puzzle.

    rpgs are a dying genre mainly because it has been done and has no real progression in it. the way platformers were. the only progression that can be made is to make them closer to the action genre.

    It's just you.

    You see more bad RPGs these days because more are being brought over. There are still a plethora of quality RPGs around.

    I think I know what you mean.

    I don't think they Suck, but I don't like the art-styles alot of RPG's are going for now.

    I guess I just miss 2D.

    (Wishes we had a Gravestone Symbol)

    Bye 2D.

    I have liked a few new generation RPG's, but I don't think we'll ever see something like the glory of the SNES RPG and PSX RPG era.

    Of course people are going to run out of ideas, but it looks like SE, as well as many others, still have a lot of tricks up their sleeve
