You missed the silent protagonist... aka, the mute bastard who doesn't seem to care enough about anything to speak his mind. Also missed the rag-tag group of unlikely heroes who set out to save the world against the odds.

"Here I am starting my quest! Luckily everyone around me is weak and the though ones will only appear when I'm strong as well!"
Basic RPG cliché. When you're level one, you'll only find other level ones and so on. It's lucky that your home city is surrounded by weak monsters, where others that are far away ar completely screwed!

That one could replace the one about facial hair. Nothing above the lip? Gordon Freeman begs to differ -- I'd listen to him, he's pretty bad-ass.

how about those things that happens almost every story where someone/something is captured and youre neither there nor have the powers to stop it, then you have to go on a journey to save he/she/it no matter what.

I've seen that cliche too many times in the Metroid Prime series. It'll eventually come to the point where Samus's power-ups are so loosly fitted, all she'd have to do is trip and let them fall into some kinda vent.

Wheres all the villian cliches?
They all have some crazy power trip, and have to take over the world.
"Ive got to take over the world for supreme powah! And to do that, I have to let the heros get dangerously close to beating me, but then ill just whoop out my super awesome invincible pants and put their asses to shame because no one can beat me! BWAHAHAHAH" [/sarcasm]
Not to mention just about every boss will tell you that he cant be beaten, cuz hes obviously THAT hardcore xD
Nice article.

Somebody always gets lost or kidnapped, and you have to go find/rescue them. it could be a random person that just joined up with you, who the real player could careless about, but you never have the choice to just let them die... *sigh* lol
I wonder what zelda would've been like if Link would've just said f*ck it, I'm tired of this, I'm gonna go fish today instead!!

What about bosses? I mean, if the final boss, the leader of all your enemies, really do see you as a threat, wouldn't he send out all he has in the first level? Try beating 3000 soldiers and 10 bosses, plus the final boss, in the first stage. How's that for a challenge?
The weird thing is, the final boss always lets 3000 of his soldiers die before it's time to get his 4SS out of his sofa. Plus, even if a game DOES end with the hero dieing by the shots of the final boss, the final boss still believes he can rule the world despite that he no longer has any soldiers left! :D

you take on all the mini bosses and LAST Boss at the very beginning. afterward you continue to play all throughout the game with just regular baddies

If you've been waiting, you might want to make sure the moment doesn't slip by as a little "eh?".

That's seriously true. Oh for gods sake, you're the bad guy! Blow his *****ing brains out before his friends rescue him 10 years later.

Where the hell did you come from, cliche?
All those games where you painstakingly murder everyone in your path, room after room. Not only are they all dead, but you even searched every corner of each room, to make sure that you didnt miss anything. Confident that there is nothing in the rooms behind you, you flip a switch.
Suddenly, there is a group of enemies charging at you from the room you just came from!

Why is it in EVERY game harboring some kind of voilence, EVERYTHING that isn't on your team is trying to kill you? In RPGs especially, even the squirrels and magical, floating fish randomly attack you out of nowhere, even if you're level 99, toting armor that shoots lasers and a sword twice as big as you.

nowadays programmers are improving games specially on m.m. online r.p.g. monsters that are ways below your level just stands still, continue whatever it is doing or run away from you. i remember chasing monsters fleeing from me on the ps1 game Guardian crusade and some other console RPGs.

I hate it when your main character has a chance to kill the very enemy who will cause you nothing but misery and woe for the next 10 hours of the game, but instead they just sit there and read their whole life's story and let them escape. COME ON!

Same with Mario, and Haggar, and probably lots of others that don't immediately come to mind.

The game premise must be about a magical object given to the good people by some powerful being. Only the good people are too dumb to use the object's power for defence and some bad guy comes and steals it to take over the world.

Animal always atack you... even the cute ones and they are willing to die for no reason... maybe they think you will steal from them. (why do animals need items and money if you never see them buying stuff in the town)? Animals hate party´s . Sorry for my english :P

How the little 4 horned squirrel with nothing but a 1 damage nut throw attack fights you when you're lv 9999999 and he's lv 1. Then when he dies, he drops his 2gp which he has no reason to have.

I'm so sick of most Japanese RPG's where the main hero is almost always a young kid/teenager who uses a sword as a weapon. Ugh.

No, just don't make every hero male, holding a sword and being 10 years old you f.u.c.k.i.n.g weeaboo.

Re: KUYA (Unregistered) - 2007-05-26 |

would you want a game that has a ten year old kid as a hero and totes an AK47? a super cutely deformed version of Duke Nukem perhaps?
