RPGs aren't neceesarily my favourite genre of game, my experience only containing the below short list
Final Fantasy 3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10
Chrono Trigger
Secret of Mana
Grandia
eh, that shadow of something for the PS2
and a few others.
But, has any RPG game been set in a modern world with realistic characters and Storyline, obviously not too realistic as to be boring. But i believe if done properly with some thought(more than what i can put into it perhaps) then i don't see why no one has tasked themselves with such an undertaking.
Please remember that i've had zero gametime with any Mother game, if perhaps it contradicts me which i fear it may.
The idea i'm having is a kinda Halflife/FF7 mashup.
But i guess it is a genre steeped in tradition.
Any interesting ideas fellow, fellows?
Try turn-based combat in a barfight :P
I don't fully believe my self that it would be such a great idea/game but i thought it was worthy of a small discussion.
Just a musing on my part more than anything significant.
I like the whole escape reality thing as playing in real world situations wouldn't be too exciting.
Yeah thats the game i was talking about it had a kinda circle that had a specific name where you had to press 'x' within a sweet spot to maximise you attacks.
I do remember quite a rather heavy demon factor within the game, if i'm correct in thinking you get trapped in a village early one by a blood demon or something like that or a snake, not sure man i'm a bit drunk :)
also, a badass ghost on a ship?
It may be more of an adventure game, but still.
Sorry i prefer a blog to arse-ing about on the forums.

why? Scnerio
Allegretto: Hey Beat, come with me.
Beat: huh..what for?
Allegretto: we're gonna go to the city and ask them to lower taxes so we can stop stealing food and actually afford it for our kids.
no one said anything about storyline being to date.

There is actually an RPG coming out set in modern times*like..today modern*, but I can't recall the name. Bah.
Still, the original game on the greatest console ever created, The Dreamcast. Was a game that deserves much more than what it was rewarded with.
If you have the time and money to invest in a dreamcast and a copy of the game, do try it out. Its a great game with an RPG feel to it.
In fact, I bet the most realistic RPGs were older PC games.
