Little BRO Rat
I really don't understand why people think KOTOR is mainstream. When I picture mainstream games I think of what my brother would play like Halo, Guitar Hero or Call of Duty. I tried to get him to play KOTOR once and he played it for about 10 minutes and said it was too boring, not enough action.
How exactly is KOTOR mainstream? Is it because it was realtime w/pause? or what? Baldur's gate was realtime w/pause and people seemed to enjoy that game. Not every game made can have the complexity of the Realms of Arkania series.
So put me in the catagory of KOTOR rulz because if DA comes close to the story and gameplay of that game then I would say RPGs are in an upswing towards better quality vs. the hackfests with no plot. I like Roguelike games just as much as the next guy, but some great writing and gameplay mixed together would be a nice change of pace.
