I like self-insert because they tend to be more open ended so I can waste time doing nothing.
I hate RPG's with set characters because I can't stand the idea of playing as someone who might have a bigger dick than me.
>>331833114
I feel you.
For creativity, I love playing Skyrim with the Alternate Start mod. But Dragon Age Origins does great for a self-instert narrative.

Character to play as.
>What is your favorite subgenre of RPG?
SRPG, probably, though I'm a fan of most RPG's.
>What is your favorite RPG game?
Shit, I'm not sure. Either Mother 3 or Xenoblade. Devil Survivor Overclocked for favorite SRPG.

I wish I couldve gotten unto XB. I cant get over the MMO sidequests and the wierd as combat system where almost every enemy I faught needed to be toppled.
Someone recommend me a good RPG on the PC, preferably tactical or something with swords and shields.

Dragon Age: Origins is one
Mount and Blade: Warband if you like building armies and using a little strategy
Skyrim with mods
Oblivion for that comfy feeling
Kingdom Come: Deliverance is coking out eventually

Self-Insert with my own Harem of pure girly girls groomed for marriage.
Wish one day I could play a western RPG where not every woman is a crazy bisexual tattoed turbo slut who has every STD known in the kingdom/planet/galaxy.
I've been addicted to older jrpgs like ff1 and dragon quest 3. I like the idea of making a party of people I know irl and then adventuring with them. Almost like the same joy of playing Oregon trail and seeing who dies of dysentery first.

My favourite is Persona_1_. Pls no bully
>Do you prefer self-insert RPG's or RPG's that give you a character to play as?
I like self-inserts.
Let me name my character, make my own choices, and if possible, customize my appearance.
It's not as fun when you have some unlikable dumbfuck be the main character and make all of the choices for the player. Especially if the character makes a shitload of questionable to just plain fucking retarded decisions.
>What is your favorite subgenre of RPG?
First Person Dungeon Crawlers
>What is your favorite RPG game?
Probably Strange Journey.
>>331834305
I wish more JRPGs did this formula lately. People hated DQ9 because you made your own party like that, but that's honestly what I loved about it.
It's also why I love the Etrian Odyssey games.

Self-insert, because "character to play as" I assume means I get to choose a character and not create and customize my own. I'm fairly square in that I usually make a very determined guy, it but feels more personal to me as I go on the journey instead. But I don't roleplay as myself.
>Do you prefer self-insert RPG's or RPG's that give you a character to play as?
If the game is supposed to have a serious story, then I prefer an actual character to play as. A story that tries to be serious yet has a self-insert character tends to range from mediocre to dogshit since everything is watered down to accommodate the player.
>What is your favorite subgenre of RPG?
Action RPG. I dont really care for turn-based since most RPGS can do better for themselves without it, saves a shitload of time.
>What is your favorite RPG game?
Powder the roguelike
>>331833059
I can appreciate both as long as they are done properly.
Most of the time devs use a silent protagonist as a get-out-of-writing-a-character-free card and just claim it's so you can "self-insert"
Of course on the other hand some protagonists are so badly written that you wish the devs had realized how garbage they are and taken the easy way out.
>>331833059
>Do you prefer self-insert RPG's or RPG's that give you a character to play as?
Both is pretty fine by me. As long as the story is good and the protagonists didn't spend too much time angsting because I play for fun not that.
What is your favorite subgenre of RPG?
SRPG because I like tactical games. probably because too much tabletop games for me.
What is your favorite RPG game?
Tactics Ogre and Ogre Battle series.Which is why I am making a similar game to them because Square Enix can't be arsed to make a non-mobile SRPG nowadays. Got greenlighted already :^)
Someone's gotta start anyway
JRPG > WRPG
>>331836398What's the name of your game friend? I loved Tactics Ogre.

>self insert rpg with tons of dialogue to choose from
>isometric with turn base combat
Don't have one in particular... the last one I really liked was Shadowrun Dragonfall, but it's been in a while (three month) since I played a RPG.
BTW, my favourite rpg of all time is BG2 (yeah, I know, t doesn't have a good choice for dialogue and it's with pause, but nostalgia)
>>331836921Not sure how I feel about the setting but it looks neat. I'll be keeping an eye on it.
>>331833059
I prefer self-insert RPG, gives you more room to role play and makes the immersion greater. But the other can be done just as well, its just harder.
>>331836921looks pretty good, like the setting, might buying it when it cames out.

>Do you prefer self-insert RPG's or RPG's that give you a character to play as?
Don't care so long as I can build te character however I like
>What is your favorite subgenre of RPG?
Actual Rogue-likes but mostly just turn based in general
>What is your favorite RPG game?
Probably Wizardry 8 or something out of the golden box ones.

>I cant get over the MMO sidequests
Trust me, you only really need to do the timed sidequests. You'll either have to have the patience of a saint to do them all like I did or just be THAT into the world itself.
>wierd as combat system where almost every enemy I faught needed to be toppled.
I don't recall every enemy needing to be toppled, but it's been a while since I've played.
