What is the first RPG you beat? Ever?

Recommended Posts

Just curious to read through some lists here.

 

I think mine was Ultima 3 (C64)

 

and then possibly either Dragon Warrior 1 or FF7.

 

Does Zelda count?

 

:)

I shied away from RPG's in the Apple 2 days (Wizardy, Ultima, etc.) because I just didn't get them as a child. The first RPG I ever beat was in the console days and it was the original Phantasy Star on the SMS.

I wouldn't count Zelda, so for me, I'm going to have to say. . . Pokemon Blue?

I enjoy, collect, and play RPGs of all shapes and sizes, but I have a habit of not beating them. Example: in Final Fantasy VII, I've done nearly all the game, I've leveled up my doods, I've done most of the sidequests and everything, but I haven't gone after the WEAPONs yet, or fought Sephiroth. I tend to max these games out then simply not beat them.

Either Dragon Warrior or the First Final Fantasy. Id say maybe adventure on atari but I cant remember if I actually ever finished it.

Dragon Warrior, 1987, brand new game, beat at the tender age of 11. :)

 

Mind you, that wasn't the first RPG I PLAYED....just the first one I actually finished.

That was the Bard's Tale on the C64. I also beat the second one, but somewhere lost interest in one of the 80+ dungeons of the third ;)

Probably "Final Fantasy II" on the SNES.

 

Or "The Legend Of Zelda" if that counts.

Does Zelda really count? I think not.

 

Sort of. It DOES allow for more role-play than games that simply hand you a role, like Final Fantasy 7.

Dragon Warrior on the NES, followed by Final Fantasy on the NES. Zelda and Zelda II came prior, but I don't consider those RPGs. More-so action-adventure games, if you have to give them a label (Zelda II obviously veering far from the "adventure" part).

Fun to read through what was the first RPG you beat and got a CONGRATULATIONS...END Credit or just a "Thank You for playing"

 

Zelda is getting some strikes.

 

Is Diablo an RPG? Tempest has a Gemstone Warrior avatar...Diablo-like gameplay if I remember.

 

Thats another debatable one since its just a Rogue like dungeon crawl. I personally think it is because you have stats, hit-points and you level up in the traditional D&D method.

I don't play RPGs but even I gave Final Fantasy VII a try and beat it back in the day.

Pokemon Silver, in fact until I started emulating games and beat Eathbound (not sure if completed zero or 1 first), all the RPGs I beat were Pokemon games.
