The best kind of video game

20 Feb

There are so many different kinds of video games out there right now. However there is a certain genre of games that are, in my opinion, to be the best out there.

The genre that i am speaking about is Role-Playing Games, or as some lazy gamers would call them by RPG’s. The games that fall into that category would be the games in the Elder Scrolls series, the Mass Effect games, the Suikoden games, Chrono Trigger games, Star Wars games, and many more other great games that i haven’t mentioned.

What i love about all those games mentioned, is that they bring a sense of fun of creating your own character, and decide how they act with others or decide what they look like.

Thats why i think that RPG’s are so great , you can decide whether you the good guy who helps out others who are in distress or to be a villain that causes suffering to others.

Not only that, but it is the sheer freedom of RPG’s that make them so great, for me the best RPG’s are the ones you get completely lost in.

RPG’s can give you that feeling of wonder, that feeling of awe when you get immersed to the RPG’s world the first minute you enter it. It is the idea of how different our world is from the fictional world we are engaged when we are playing video games

I am captivated by the character that are in those games, i am interested in what they say and what they do. From the anger they talk with, or from the happiness that can be heard fro the voice, the very definable qualities that we see in the real world.

RPG’s brings that exploration of what personalities we want to choose from doing what is right to what is wrong. This is what makes RPG’s master pieces of the video game world.

My first experiences playing with video games was the RPG’s. Being young and seeing the massive scale of Legend of Zelda, with all it’s puzzles, the constant explorations of different areas, fighting enemies, doing all these for what i thought was for the greater good.

It is things like saving a princess from a castle, or save a whole town from destruction, or maybe even saving the whole universe, that makes those games so intriguing.

That is what RPG’s do. Not only that but they also help release some stress of your everyday life. Role-playing games are do this better than any other mediums out there.

The future looks great not only for Role-Playing games but all video games in general, with the coming of the next generations consoles. There is great excitement of what will be the next Skyrim’s, or what will be the next Zelda game would look like.
