Video Game Suggestions

[lykomancer]

Okay, here's the situation.

I used to play tons of RPGs. Used to, as in I haven't played a game to completion since maybe 2002. Maybe.

My favorite games included Secret of Evermore, Secret of Mana, Star Ocean, Breath of Fire IV, and Legend of Dragoon-- stuff like that. Oh and the Mario RPG. Jesus.

Now, with my boyfriend and one of my roommates constantly playing video games, I kind of want to play, too...but something different than what they're already obsessing over.

I want something long, involved, and moderately engaging, but I hate the massive amounts of cut-scenes, insanely complicated menus, and impossible puzzles that seem to be the new black in rpgs.

Can anyone suggest some good, sort of old-fashioned-styled rpgs (for PS2) that I might want to try out?

...yes, I'm back with Ed. We decided that dancing around the issue of "Are we or aren't we dating?" was silly, so we just agreed that we are (at least for the moment).

I mean, if you call someone every night, take five-hour long bus rides to visit them whenever you possibly can, have sex daily when you can, hang out, cuddle, talk and argue, and constantly feel a need to vocalize your appreciation and liking for them...that's probably a relationship, ammirite?

I'm pretty relationship-retarded, but yes, I think it probably is. XD

Anyhow, congrats!
