role-playing games

I’ve enjoyed role-playing games since I was pretty young, cutting my teeth on JRPGs for the SNES; and they are still one of my favorite genres to this day, encompassing everything from western rpgs like MUDs, roguelikes, and tabletop rpgs; to japanese rpgs, strategy/tactical rpgs, and action-rpgs.
some of my favorite developers & publishers are compile heart, idea factory, square enix, atlus, gust, MAGES., bandai namco, and koei tecmo.
