I've played many many RPGs over the years, from SNES to Playstation, even ye olde bard's tale (brilliant) but one thing i've yet to see is an edgy, modern/post modern RPG game aimed for the older generation, yet with final fantasy style game play i.e. parties and possibly turn-based or ATB (sp?) combat. I love my final fantasy don't get me wrong, but i'd love to see the current surge of mature games spill over into the RPG genre. Vampire: The Masquerade, is definitely a good start, so i've heard, but it's not in that party based combat style of Final Fantasy.

Anyway, what i'd like to know is what you'd do if you were making an RPG for mature audiences? The soundtrack? Characters? Combat System? Story? or any other features.. if they had something like that out there now i'd definitely give it a go.

I'll post my own reply later tonight. I've got a lecture in 5 mins.

Peace.
