RPGs are definitely more addicting because it combines action, strategy and story. Personally I don't care how I get to the end, or whether I get all the secrets as long as I get the entire story.

RPGs for sure. Fighting games you can just pick up and play as little or as much as you want. You have to really get into RPGs.

This question really depends on personal interest and what you like to do. Fighting games generally involves a non-literal gain of skills, as in the more you practice the game, the better you get. RPGs are more literal, as in, if you fight enough, you gain actual numbers that reflect increased strength. So if your goal is to totally kick the neighbor kid's butt in the newest fighting game, it will be very addicting because you will keep playing it so you get better at it. If your goal, on the other hand is to gain a ton of items and levels and flick the final boss aside with your pinky, RPGs are for you because it doesn't actually require reflexes or memorization of combos.Just a note, there are RPGs that add fighting game elments like Tales of Phantasia... but let's not get into that.

I agree that RPG's are the most addictive, I find that I get bored of fighting games quite rapidly, whereas a good rpg can make hours dissappear without me realising.

RPG are more addictive. I played tekken 3 for a few days then never played again. I played DBZ budokai 1 and 3 for about 1 week each. thats about all for fighting games I played. but rpg... I played ff7 from begining to the end to do a speed run with my cousin once. 3 days without sleeping only drinking coffey and playing ff7. try to do that with a fighting game

Both of them I guess but fighting games can become boring if you kept on using the same characters over and over again and have set the highest scores without anyone defeating them yet.

I'll say rpg becouse many time there are some things you miss in the game that you want to do over again (like getting the grand prize in a tournament or something else)

"A boy has the right to dream. There are endless possibilities stretched out before him. What awaits him down the path, he will then have to choose. The boy doesn't always know. At some point, the boy then becomes an adult, and learns what he was able to become. Joy and sadness forever will accompany this. He is confronted with a choice. When this happens, does he bid his past farewell in his heart? Once a boy becomes an adult, he can no longer go back to being a boy. The boy is now a man. Only one thing can be said. A boy has the right to dream. For those endless possibilities are stretched out before him. We must remember. All men were once boys."

Personally I don't like fighting games, so I don't think that they are more addictive than the RPGs
