Gothic 1 and 2

Pokemon - blue
(First one) Zelda: Ocarina of time

I'm kinda pissed I didn't play Diablo or Baldurs gate when I was younger

me too, but I was working myself to death when those came out. I think my first actual rpg NWN. It was epic for me. I remember actually getting emotionally invested in the story and characters and hating Aribeth for her betrayal, gladly killing her in the final chapter. I still think that story is the best story I've ever played through. If Oblivion hadn't graphically spoiled me I'd play it again.

The one and only, Baldur's gate.

[Emzidia]

Zelda - Ocarina of Time! It made me cry in the end, it was that good for me!

Haha I was so scared of the skeletons, the zombies and some bosses at that time, that I sometimes forced my brother to play it through for me XD

(But I'm a little braver now, I can actually play Left4Dead )



Anyways, after that I began to play Final Fantasy 8 and became in love with the series so I played the other ff-games as well. FF7 is the favourite (Aeris <3 )

Eye of the Beholder. Hmmm, 386, 66Mhz, monochrome 14" monitor, 20 megs of hard drive, 2 megs of ram - but a sound card! Whoa, the good old times

[Napoleon1853]

I don't know for sure.

Do the hand held Pokemon games like Pokemon Yellow Version count as an RPG?

[Jotun35]

My first RPG was probably FF VII or The Legend of Dragoon on Playstation. But my first occidental RPG (approximatively one year later) was... Baldur's Gate of course !
For now my favorites RPGs are the Baldur's Gate saga, Planescape : Torment (the absolute awesomness<3), Deus Ex, Vampire : The Masquerade : Bloodlines, Icewind Dale II, Arcanum, KOTOR 2, FF VI (better than the VII IMO) and the most recent are The Witcher (best RPG of the last 3 years) and Mass Effect.

Mine would have to be the Final Fantasy games, i was still pretty young though. Eventually as i got older and played other games, i stumbled upon KOTOR then other games like Mass Effect and Fallout 3 and Oblivion. Does Pokemon count?

My first ever RPG I think was Top Secret by TSR.

My first ever CRPG was Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord. The thing I remembered most about it was dying alot. I don't think I ever made it past the forth level of the dungeon even though I played it every day for months.

After that came Phantasie II, Ultima 4, Wasteland, the Might & Magic series and the SSI "Gold Box" series of AD&D games.

[Deathbass89]

Jade Empire. Then I back-tracked.

Yeah, your cell phone runs circles around that nowadays....

First RPG ever... I think it was Final Fantasy 6. Is that the one where you fight Kefka?

[Stagmar]

Yep that's 6. Best Final Fantasy in my opinion.

[Pyrefly79]

Legend of Zelda or Final Fantasy on the NES. My mom had an IBM 8T88, but all I remember playing on that was Carmen Sandiego. I guess maybe Oregon Trail could count as an RPG, I played that on our school's Apple ][c.

The AD&D stuff from the 3.5 floppy days. First MMO was WoW lol I know, I've since tried almost all of them. Currently awaiting Star Wars The Old Republic, strangely enough it's Biowares first foray into MMO's.

i guess my first "real" rpg was "Blade of Destiny" or as it was originally a computer adaption of a german pnp system "Das schwarze Auge - Schicksalsklinge" ^^ the first rpg-like game would be Larn i guess...something like diablo with ascii symbols ^^

My first CRPG was Questron.

I loved Questron. I spent many hundreds of hours playing it. It was the sort of game where you got dropped in a world without any indication of what you were supposed to do. Once you'd travelled around a bit and gained a level, you'd receive a message from townspeople that "Mesron wants to see you". There was some lore in the manual that told you who Mesron was, and that he was in the castle, but the game didn't provide a map, so finding that castle took quite a while.

And then, once I was in the castle, my first character actually starved to death wandering its halls looking for Mesron.

And, while there was a map of the world available in the castle (it was a tiled floor, so you couldn't take it with you - you had to copy it yourself or memorise it), that map was actually inaccurate. The in-game cartographers had made entirely realistic errors much like those found in real medieval maps.

In hindsight, the game was terribly derivative of games like Ultima that had come before it (in fact, the original Questron box - which I still have - specifically thanks Lord British for licensing the game structure), but I have very fond memories of it.

I've never managed to make in work in a C=64 emulator, though.

First RPG for me would be the original Final Fantasy on the NES. I'll be honest though, I had no idea what I was doing. I don't think I ever got past the first town. My excuse would be that I was like five or six at the time. But I did terrorize the random encounter monsters on the world map.

[Frostaxt]

"Das schwarze Auge - Schicksalsklinge" - A German rpg which had two sequels, where you could import your former characters.  Since it was my first crpg I thought it would be standard, that you can use your character over a series of games. The only game, which let me do that after that, was Baldur´s Gate though.

My first crpg in English was Fallout 1. Btw a pity Bethesda bought the rights. Would have loved it, if Bioware would have made a game set in the Fallout universe.

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. Played that for a VERY long time and so far the best game I've ever played.

[xODD7BALLx]

Fallout 1

[Withidread]

First RPG was Legend of Zelda on the NES... I remember the commercials were fascinating to me back then...



I've still got the gold cartridge stashed away somewhere.



First MMO was Ultima Online

[telephasic]

I don't count Zelda as an RPG (I'm also not going to count Quest for Glory II), so I'm going to say my first was Ultima VI. Fun game. Although I never won it I did manage to kill Lord British in it (once got into a vicious argument with someone in my 20s who didn't believe me). Prior to that I mostly just played Sierra adventure games with a bit of Simcity and Civ mixed in. After that I started branching into the older D&D games (which I generally didn't like except for the Dark Sun series. Until BG came along when I was a freshman (I think) in college. Goddamn!

I guess this brings up the point, who decides what is and isn't an RPG?  If it's a Role Playing Game where you truly role play and your decisions affect game play, then that rules out about 95% of what have traditionally been considered "RPGs" includig ALL JRPGs, if I am not mistaken.

On the other hand, if we take a more liberal view of RPG's, then I think Zelda qualifies.  Hmmm.. Perhaps we need a new thread.

[Valsira]

Final Fantasy VIII. It was also the first console game I played.

[Templar Vilmon]

Playing D&D around the table with my cousin - as I did that when I was 11 but didn't really start playing video game RPGs until I was 13. Probably first RPG was Curse of the Azure Bonds. Maybe Bard's Tale - but I think I played BT years after it came out.
