    !!!

    The game that will single-handedly save the genre.

    We have reached the RPG singularity.

    Hey what about that GBC rpg Infinity that was going to be released on the internet by the developers? I seem to remember them saying it was going to be finished soon.

    This was discussed earlier, but to all the host of you; we are not talking about JRPGs.

    I do think a problem can be seen in the Zero Punctuation thread. Developers may be afraid to make real RPGs in fear that mouthbreathers like that will be unable to understand how to play. Same reason you don't see many real strategy games.

    RPGs need to go back to being a niche genre.
