Which RPG setting do you prefer?

[Cody211282]

I prefer the typical Final Fantasy setting. Don't know what you'd class that as...

Lightning: You'd consider me medieval then?

Oh damn it now you are doing this to? Because one person doing it wasn't annoying enough. This needs to stop before it becomes like the time everyone talked like HK-47.

OT:I like both as long as they are done well, the only setting I couldn't get into was steam punk.

Post Apocalypse/ Science Fiction.

Fallout 3= my favorite game of all time. Mass Effect was acceptable and I haven't played ME2 yet. Oblivion was meh IMO and Dragon Age got on my nerves with the combat. So two developers, each making a sci-fi and a fantasy and I prefer both sci-fi's.

Fantasy. But less on the fantasy.

I hate being a goddamn pussy wizard, but when I play an RPG that has magic, I feel like I'm missing part of the game if I don't have it. So I always end up with a mage who specialises in the highly respected magical field of "stabbing the fuck out of everything"

Fantasy like Mount and Blade- where your skills are all secondary to your ability to stab bitches in the face- is my favourite.

Sci-fi is alright, but there's only so good you can be at calling "Orbital strike that fucker".

 

[Shock and Awe]

Sci-Fi has always been way more entertaining for men than fantasy.

 

[JokerboyJordan]

Fantasy bores me to tears...

 

[TheScarecrow]

World of Darkness is cool.

 

[TheScarecrow]

European fantasy. Especially if there are airships.

You bastard...
no seriously you bastard...
That was not funny at all and I can see you are lacking simple morality, like any other nowadays kid/teenager/adult. what has become with the people of today, sickening.
I hope you burn in hell after crashing in a similair accident, because that was not funny.

Well that's awesome. Thank you for that uplifting statement.

Seriously, what you have said was morally irresponsible, and you should be ashamed.

Thought police!

Edited by me to save face.

While I really love settings like Oblivion, I love SciFi more.

I would really love a Mass Effect MMO one day so I can play a nobody shopkeeper on the Citadel or Illyum ^_^

 

[Comma-Kazie]

Science fiction is my preference, although I do enjoy a good fantasy every now and again (Dragon Age, anyone?).

 

[RanD00M]

I personally prefer the Sci-Fi setting.Things can get a lot more interesting and original that way.Medieval fantasy settings have been done to death.Or at least a lot more the Sci-Fi.

 

[omega_peaches]

My favorite kinds is The Fallout 3 kind, Post-Apocalyptic
Castle Crashers, where you are always moving,
Or Steampunk

 

[ChaoticLegion]

I love both, actually. I'm a Sci-Fi geek, but in gaming I also adore the fantasy settings. Impossible to pick, in my case.

Somewhat the same, although if pushed I'd probably pick the Oblivion setting over the others.

 

[joshuaayt]

All I want is a good, modern one. That is to say, I don't particularly want space lasers, and Medieval has been done to undeath. If we just found some middle ground, we'd be able to revolutionise the genre.

 

[Riddle78]

I,personally,like any setting,just as long it's pulled off correctly.

 

[Soxafloppin]

Not a fan of RPG's but i generally perfer sword fighting settings.

I like swords lol.

 

[1080bitgamer]

Just as a generallity, I mostly go for the present/past time RPGs, but there isn't a major preference. Chrono Trigger took place in both, and it's possibly the most well written JRPG ever made. Except maybe Earthbound. But if it does take place in the future, a serious tone is necessary. Light heartedness works best in traditional RPGs. But in the world of RPGs, can you really peg down when they take place?

 

[Con Carne]

I've never been much of a sci-fi geek (Unless it's the original Star Wars Trilogy)
So my vote would have to be fantasy settings.

 

[Siegreich]

modern day Japan, It works really well for games.

 

[Bilbo536]

The guy was making fun of the Airplane crash that had the polish president (and half the damn government) on it!

I don't mean to sound heartless, but the saying "Don't put all your eggs in one basket" exist for a reason.

Mayhap they did not have this exact scenario in mind, but the theory is sound. *shrugs*

Well St. Psycho, wouldn't you call it disrespectful to refer to them as the "damn government" if you care so much?

 

[erto101]

Medieval while ME and fallout are awesome i find the medieval much more ... intriguing
