ForeverNight Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 If Zork doesn't count... Probably D&D 3.5 (The Basic Game box set)... then AD&D 2.0...
Inyri Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Chrono Trigger. [/thread] A very good choice. Would've been my first as well, I'm sure, except that I didn't know it existed til the Playstation 1 days (during my SNES days I was relegated to playing what was available at Blockbuster). I'd have loved to play it on original SNES. I remember the first time I beat it it froze during the cutscene and I had to do it over. I was so mad.
tk102 Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 If Zork doesn't count... Probably D&D 3.5 (The Basic Game box set)... then AD&D 2.0... Way to think to inside the box! I forgot about pencil and paper RPGs. I got my first D&D game about 2 years before Wizardry.
Jeff Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 As far as I can remember it was Baldur's Gate. Damn good game and I'm glad I played it because it really got me interested in RPGs.
The Source Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Since someone said that "Zork" didn't count, I will have to change my first RPG. Hmmm... Metal Gear The Original (Nintendo) -or- Final Fantasy The Original (Nintendo)
igyman Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 I'm not sure if my first was Nox, or Diablo, regardless, they are both great RPgames.
Uilleand Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Dungeons of Daggorath in 1982 ... actually, in the end probably more of an FPS than RP. But I was 9 years old. *chuckle* I didn't start tabletop RPing 'til I was in high school with Middle-Earth Role Playing and D&D of course... So, the first CRPG I played is probably Divine Divinity, a really, really decent top-down 2-D RP. I found it in a $9.99 bin at a drug store and figured my old beastie of a computer could handle it. That was two years ago. So, that makes me a n0ob and an old fart all at once...
Ctrl Alt Del Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Mine was either that one Digimon World. or that Chrono Trigger. or this one Diablo II If you ask me the second one, however, I'm sure it was Breath of Fire IV.
Ravnas Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Dude.... TSL, Pokemon, or Baldur's Gate, maybe The Elder Scrolls.
TKA-001 Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 I think the first RPG game I played was Star Wars: Galaxies. Interestingly, my tolerance of the combat in SWG (at the time) was what convinced me to pick up the KOTOR series.
patient_zero Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Mine was Pokémon Red. I chose Squirtle ;D If that doesn't count... gosh, I can't remember. Might have been a Final Fantasy.
Rathoris Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Final Fantasy 7... blew me away. *drool* excuse me, but it was sooooo good hehe.
Meowster Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Final Fantasy VIII. I had a rad aunt who let me play T games when I was 7. My second was probably Legend of Dragoon.
General LiWar Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Since we're not counting zelda...pokemon (but we're not counting that either) KOTOR!!!!
M@RS Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Hmm, I'd have to say Zork, that games pretty good, very difficult as a little kid but fun
Giant Graffiti Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Zelda's a RPG? I thought it was an adventure game. Final Fantasy I.
Astor Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 I think that my first was probably Morrowind, then followed by KOTOR.
Point Man Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 My first RPG? Tabletop Dungeon's and Dragons (before the Player's Handbook came out). My first CRPG? KotOR.
Sabretooth Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 Including demos, I think it would be some obscure title called Abomination something. Excluding demos, I think it should be Deus Ex. Not really sure, though. Got fuzzy memories of that era.
Arátoeldar Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 First RPG? AD&D v. 1.0 First CRPG? Eye of the Beholder http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_of_the_Beholder_%28video_game%29
Dragoon ZER0 Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 For consoles it was Dragon Warrior on the NES. I didn't get into PC RPGs until later with Baldur's Gate.
