Where have all the good "random" RPGs gone?
This is a discussion about Where have all the good "random" RPGs gone? in the Windows Games category; I have played rpgs suck as Baldurs gate 1 and 2 and Icewind Dale and others and all I have to say is that I sorely miss the randomness of the older RPGs. Random attacks, random treasure, freedom to deviate from the script The more newer RPGs I play the more depressed I get.

Wizards and Warriors does not play well under Windows 2000. The town gate on the right does not open, access to the mayor's house and the wizard's are unavailable.
Wizardry should bring a breath of fresh air to RPG gaming.

I know what you mean pr-man..
I stand middle ground on this, I like a game with a general direction but it's always good to find little nooks and side quests.
I've found quite a nice RPG that resembles Ultima: Assention, it's "Gothic" check it out, I hear that they're coming out with a second one.

Perfect balance of randomness and scripted actions = final fantasy series... unfortunately the pc ports seemed to be sub-par compaired to the original versions.
