Recently I have been thinking about 3rd / 1st person Action RPGs (ARPGs). There are many games that more or less fall in this category, such as Dark Souls, Gothic, Skyrim, The Witcher, maybe even Mount&Blade or Zelda. So basically anything where you play a single made up character in a made up world that experiences made up adventures, gets stronger during those adventures and you can directly control each of that characters movements, attacks and other actions in real-time.
The more I thought about those things, the less I really understood what is important for an ARPG.
That's why I came up with these 4 questions. They don't refer to any game in particular, just general thoughts about ARPGs. I would be happy if you guys can answer them for me. It's also fine if you just want to answer one out of those 4 questions, though more would be better in this case.
1. Imagine you are playing an ARPG, what kind of thoughts or images do you associate with that in general?
2. According to your own experience, what kind of problems or shortcomings do ARPGs typically have?
3. When you think about buying an ARPG, which features, elements or other game attributes do you think about?
4. What do you expect from ARPGs in the future?
Looking forward to your replies!
