    Well you can rename Link if you want to...I think Zelda is a one-player action RPG like Fable.

    Zelda is an Action-Adventure with RPG elements. It's not a full-fledged RPG, otherwise, pretty much every game is an RPG.

    Oh, and the console Sims are considered full RPG's.

    I'd like to know what these "rpg elements" everyone keeps talking about are. The fact that you play as someone who isn't yourself? Does that make Grand Theft Auto an RPG?

    Because it has fairies and people with pointy ears. PROOF.

    Well in most RPGs you can rename characters that's why I said that.

    ... ok? You can rename characters in lots of games. And there are lots of RPGs where you can't rename any characters. That kind of thing is irrelevant.

    Tales of Symphonia's story was just so bleh, and the dungeons downright sucked. Battle system was great, though. There weren't many RPGs on the GameCube, and I haven't played most of the few there are, so I'd have to say Skies of Arcadia. Damn good game. Paper Mario's probably better, though.

    I've always thought about that.

    and gone "HECK YEAH!" I mean. Take the DMC games for example. You roleplay a witty Demon Slayer.

    ~ stylish action ?

    Stylish Action ftw.

    I don't see how you can find Tales' gameplay boring, especially compared to the Turn Based Garbage that most other RPGs have. The stories in the Tales games haven't really been anything inspiring, but it was definitely one of those games where it was a little fun to play.

    All the reccomendable RPGs have already been mentioned.

    Virtua Quest is missing from the list, but that isn't reccomendable.

    Edit: I knew you made this thread before. Sort of.

    I'll probably be the only one to say that the Baten Kaitos series was my favorite. Sure, it has it's fair share of flaws, and the card battle system isn't for everyone, but I really enjoyed both of the games.

    I didn't really like Tales of Symphonia. It wasn't bad, I just couldn't get into it. Which is weird because I'm a big Star Ocean fan which has a battle system based off the Tales series. I've been meaning to pick it up and try it again. I'd like to play Skies of Arcadia, but I can't find it anywhere anymore.

    I think you can order Skies of Arcadia from Nintendo's website.

    Tales of Symphonia is the only GameCube game you ever need. I don't even have a GameCube and I have Tales of Symphonia.

    THAT IS HOW GOOD IT IS
