Is it possible to be "good" at RPGs?

I think it'd be considered "insane luck".

It takes a special kind of insanity to do it. I personally have around thirty or so fully completed RPGs to my name, so I consider myself somewhat of an expert in how to complete RPGs effectively. The key is to shorten the time you spend backtracking/doing nothing constructive to a bere minimum.

I don't think that makes you good, that just means you have a lot of time to waste...

I disagree. It doesn't take anywhere near the amount of time it does to get everyone up to level 99 and stuff like that. That takes zero skill. Being able to figure out boss patterns and maximize what you have and build stratagy around it takes skill and few can do that.

Again, I disagree, because when you first play an RPG you play through just to play through gaining levels and doing it all regular, not really trying to be a a low level, or a high level. Then almost everyone their second time through tries to get everything and max out everything. Now standard RPGs now adays are at least 40 hours of gameplay, so that's already 80 hours on the game. Another time through maybe this time at a low level will be another 40 hours, possibly more due to many deaths at points in the game, which are bound to happen occasionally no matter how good the player. I'll admit I've done low level games before, my greatest accomplishment I felt was low-level FFVI with only three characters on Kefka, but still, it was a big use of time and I was younger and had nothing better to do with my time and could waste time like that.
