No, I'm demonstrating why the question is stupid.  

The only reason anyone could want to ban an RPG from existence would be to eliminate its influence on the genre.  Simply removing a game or franchise does nothing further beyond deprive those who enjoyed it from experiencing it, so unless spite and malice are the underlying motivations, I'm going to go with elimination of genre influence as the only justifiable motivation to take such a position, even rhetorically.  

Or it's not that deep, and expressing disappointment is simply a lament and wish that Bioware had gone a different way and at least taken more care in producing the sequel.  Every discussion on Dragon Age anywhere on the net now devolves into feuding, usually petty and childish feuding.  It's depressing for something that is supposed to be fun.  And the people who used to have something in common no longer do.  I'm talking about people I actually care about, not you.

Also how Bioware handled the whole franchise since the original was released reflects poorly on them as a developer IMO.  Rushing out a cash grab to cynically take advantage of the fans of the original must have seemed like a good idea at the time, but it's fair to wish they had chosen a better approach.

It's not the end of the world- I really don't care anymore.  But DA2 fits the bill of the OP's question and is the only game I'd put in that category.

WoW, cause I would have liked to see what else Blizzerd might have done.


We can always dream can't we?

Maybe a new IP, it's been so long since Blizzard had a new IP.


Why should blizzard make a new Ip when WOW 9 millions player, diablo2 4-5 miilions playing.. last time I checked was around feb 2011. Am not surprised so many people like their games, i dont play sci-fi so no clue how many are playing startcraft, many people are playing  warcraft in bnet that game is even older than WOW.

If one rpg should be removed is all that uses sci-fi.. I dont like them.

If we eliminate DA, would Bioware still have been taken over by EA?

Whichever game caused the DLC craze among developers to milk more money from us. I'm not sure that it was an RPG though.

Scifi isn't an rpg it's a setting :whistle:

WoW. After 7 years it's finally time to lay down and play dead...oh no wait it doesn't have to "play" anything. It's already dead. For real!

Planetscape should've been a book, as for eliminating an RPG from existence: LOTR: The Third Age

Final Fantasy as a whole, although if I could only pick one it'd be XIII.

VII and XII can stick around, I guess.

The world would be so dull without JRPGs with their dreamy splendor. I just wish Infinite Undiscovery never happened.

Lets see:

-Mass Effect
-Elder Scrolls
-Witcher series
-Fallout 3...all listed for destruction in this thread.



To be fair Fallout 3 is bad.


TBH I tend to agree, although I enjoyed playing it, and sunk a fair amount of time into it (was a good game imo) but the story was atrocious and unlike, well lets use their latest success Skyrim, which has a solid main story line which is cohesive and related to many different events in the world, Fallout 3 is essentially just ****** in the wind for 40 hours, find your father, get clean water, the end (although its still an insanely stupid story lol)

To all the people that won't list a game or series cuz it would be 'wrong' to do and would rob people of their fun with the game I have this to say.  You do know this is just a topic on an off-topic board on the internet right?  We will not in fact be eliminating any games in the real world through our posts in this thread.  Its ok to play along.  Nothing bad will happen.

And my vote goes to Arc Rise Fantisia.  Worst game ever made.  I got it in the bargain bin and still feel like I was ripped off.
Also DA2 should go away and die a slow death!  (see that was just a colorful way of expressing my disappointment in the game DA2.  It will not in fact go die a slow death anywhere.  So all you moral high ground posters don't need to actually worry.)

Final Fantasy

If I have to pick one, I would actually say VII. I never got into it...and it's frustrating to me that it got so popular. I actually had an argument not too long ago about what the best JRPG of all time was. Pretty much everyones response was VII...when the correct answer, is, of course, Chrono Trigger.
