Thank you both for the comments and George I do agree that RPG’s have evolved but however the genre itself is getting uncreative. Nearly almost every game to date has some kind of RPG elements in them, but that’s what they are just elements. I disagree though with MMO’s being the future as many of them you are just leveling up and going on quest you have to use more of your imagination. Producers need to give us better RPG’s with better stories and unique characters.

Nice article. I just have to disagree a little. Turn based rpg’s are dead. Which means that orignal rpg’s have died. But rpg’s have not died yet. It has evolved. Meaning role-playing is everywhere you just don’t notice or give credit where it is due. Most games now days have rpg’s elements. For example. In sports games you can create a player. Then put that player on any team. Then you can role play as what that team would have been like with you or a made up person. To me that is great role playing. Also don’t forget that MMO like WOW are the future of role playing because people want beat other people with their characters and then dance. lol.
