RPG backlog

[Skelix]

I'm quite ashamed of my backlog... I haven't played KOTR or 2 yet As well as haven't beat any of the FF's.

I have most of the PS2 RPG's but have yet to play them.

Trying to do things a little better this generation, but man I haven't even finished Oblivion! I did complete Mass Effect and am working on Fable II and Fallout 3 now.

By God I did Enchanted Arm s though!

man kotor and kotor 2 rock so hard. I'm pretty sure they both run on a modified version of the neverwinter nights 2 engine. By the way neverwinter nights and neverwinter nights 2 also both rock really hard. and so do baldurs gate and baldurs gate 2 for that matter.

I find myself constantly torn by the desire to finally play Final Fantasy VI and some strange compulsion to play through the first six Final Fantasy games in sequential order. And so I end up playing none of them.

The other thing I particularly regret is not finishing Torment. One of these days.

the worst for me is definitely ff1 on the ff origins compilation on psx i played through to the very end and then that save file get stale. Now i'd have to pretty much replay the whole thing to feel like i beat the game in any sort of way. when i say stale i mean that save is like 4 years old now lol.

[backguard]

i'm still torqued that i sold my ps2 memory card with my shin megami tensei nocturne save on it. i really want to go back and finish it; i must have been 70% of the way through on hard. i doubt if i can bring myself to grind back to that point...

I don't get how people have such large backlogs.

For mine it's...

Persona 3 FES(sealed, need to load my original save data to this though.)
Digital Devil Saga 2(stopped halfway through.)
Wild ARMs 5(sealed.)
Grandia 3(sealed.)
Jeanne D'arc(sealed.)
Star Ocean First Departure(sealed. UMD drive isn't working on PSP.)
Suikoden 3(stopped after each character met up. I've made several new files that I've ended up stopping around this point.)
Suikoen 5(couldn't stand the game. stopped after 12 hours.)
Star Ocean 3(couldn't stand the game. stopped about 5 hours.)
Final Fantasy 12(couldn't stand the game. stopped after 10 hours.)

It's pretty easy when you've got a couple hundred rpgs and a full-time job, kids, or whatever else taking up your time.

Yeah I want to get back into FF6 too, just finding building up the Espers so slow. lol.

So anyone add to, or been able to knock anything off their backlogs?

I finished a couple. But also bought about 30 more RPGs. So, yeah, moving farther away.

3 years later:

I've officially abandoned just about every JRPG I've purchased since my first post in this thread. I could probably count on one hand how many I've finished since then. I stopped buying them completely earlier this year. It's just recently that I've been able to finally accept the fact that I don't have the time or interest for JRPG's anymore. I most likely never will again. It's sad because Disgaea 4, FF13, and Tactics Ogre PSP all look like fun (collecting dust on my shelf).

That being said...western RPG's are still my thing. Loved the ME's, Oblivion, and Fallout series. Totally plan on sinking every minute of free time I have into Skyrim. 5 1/2 years of waiting and only 4 days to go!

Persona 4 - The first dungeon.. I want to punch that bear in the face

I've wanted to punch the bear in the face the moment it talked in the Persona 4 anime.
