A good RPG

Post » Mon Jul 18, 2011 7:17 pm

I am in a bit of a gaming dry-spell. Recently I've tried playing games like Farcry 2, RDR, Batman: Arkham Asylum (which is awesome, but I've already beaten it earlier this yeah so mehhh) and other non-rpg games. Anyone have any good RPG ideas out there (besides the ME series, FO3, TESIV, FONV, DA:O & 2). I'm looking for anything really that lets me customize my armor and looks (I'm a svcker for that kind of stuff). I'm kind of interested in Magnacarta 2, and Star Ocean: Last hope, so anyone thoughts on those games would be appreciated.

Resonance of Fate has a lot of appearance customization, and a fun battle system to boot.

I love Star Ocean 4, but that game has extremely limited customization and is generally pretty linear (The Item Creation system may appear to be complex, but 90% of it is useless). I wouldn't bother if you're looking for that sort of depth. It has a fantastic combat system, though, and I absolutely love that game's soundtrack.

Actually, if you haven't played it, Tales of Vesperia on the 360 is probably one of the best JRPGs, customization-wise, ever made. You can unlock at least half a dozen costumes for each character, and while the armor doesn't change appearance, every single weapon in the game has a unique look, and the combat system is, IMHO, probably the greatest one in an RPG ever. Plus, it's an extremely long game with a lot of optional content, so it would definitely murder time.
