Poll 1 - RPG

[alienjesus]

I went for Ys.

It was Noise, being amended - its also a mythical city

Dshienem, the Dark Alliance games are completely different from the original BG. They are hack and slashes in the Diablo style rather than Infinity engine games.

Can't stress this enough. I hated Dark Alliance myself. dsheinem if you were pushing BG this entire time for those games, then well... you're in for a surprise I guess.

I don't think I'll vote on this one... I dunno. Might finally motivate me to play the original BG game. I remember starting it up earlier this year and spent like 20 minutes making my character, then I hit something that reset the entire thing. So haven't touched it since.

I went for Ys.

Ditto for me since it's available on the PSP.

Yeah, I gave DA2 a spin when I got my Xbox a few years ago. Didn't stick with it, I don't find the action hack and slash that compelling. Really looking forward to doing a proper RPG based on D&D rules though.

I went for Ys because:

1.) I think it's a super fun game and if you haven't played it yet you should.
2.) Personally I don't have a lot of time for games and Ys I is like a 6 - 8 hour game and BG is like 40+.

I went for Ys. I have only played the tg16 version, so if it wins I'll probably pick up the sms version.

Great game though. Totally unique playstyle, kinda feels like playing a shmup. Fantastic music too (at least on the tg16 there was.)

no, I wasn't.

The original BG (and BGII) looks awesome and I always wanted to play it, and it is a WRPG, which is a welcome change:







^^^ Awesome








^^^not as awesome

[noiseredux]

it's funny how different our tastes are on some things DSH.

[Gnashvar]

Y's is fun and a great game but Baldur's Gate is just a juggernaut of RPGs.

[dunpeal2064]

Heh, to my eyes those Ys screens are far more appealing.
