I honestly have no clue. The bottom line is most rpg stories are not well written (regardless of what you might think), and a lot of battles can be more grinding than fun, but i keep comming back. There is just some thing about getting that new skill, or reaching some huge story twist that makes rpgs feel realy rewarding. On that note though, i think i'm kind of growing out of them, cause i only seem to be able to play classics (lunar, xenogears, tales series, SO series ect.)/games that offer some thing fresh.

Basically, it's just as Dragon Punch said! There's something that motivates us to get that extra technic or skill, in order to explore the game at its full extension. I love rpg's, mainly for the thrill of leveling my characters, and getting every single item, or every secret unlocked. I also enjoy the gameplay and its complexity in strategy as well as its stories and obviously the twists.RPG's are for the players that want a game that makes them think, instead of having good reflexes needed for FPS or so. Due to their complexity, RPG's are usually only enjoyed at its maximum by a small amount of people, that actually try to explore every single dungeon or place...that's the objective of an RPG. Explore everything, talk to everyone, do anything you like!

I got into RPGs because they give you the chance of getting into new worlds, live some adventures, and sometimes (only sometimes) it feels like "and now what?", that moment when a puzzle stops you, or a decision it's on your way but you won't solve it until you're sure, because you don't know what's next... it's awesome feel for an instant that you may actually be the one saving the day.

RPGs are just plain awesome. They rule over all other genres of games. They are fun, have engrossing storylines, and basically are just better than other styles of game. Why people sometimes don't like RPGs, the world shall never know. :cheese:

For me it's the story, I don't think the gameplay is really that great it's just selecting things in menu's.

The good thing about RPGs are that they have almost litmitless possibilities. You can do this or you can do that. The gamer can stray from the storyline to get more excitment chossing their own path. then later they just go back on the same road to never come to a dead end.
