killing gets you lonely.

There are so few games with realistic and interesting city environments. Games like GTA attempt it, but completely ignore the social aspect. There are a few adventure games that pull it off fairly well, but they're mostly puzzle games (besides Fahrenheit POMG) and I give up on those pretty fast. And then there's stuff like Morrowind or Fallout but the dialogue IS ALWAYS SO WOODEN "How do I heal, Tell me about the caves, Where can I find your lost gem" and the actual gameplay isn't great. I know of Deus Ex and the KOTOR series which have a very heavy social ambiance (civil war, racism, personal struggles, economics- truely amazing games), anything else?

Brilliant game concept. Buggiest RPG ever. The threadloading system is... very ambitious, but almost universally problematic. Also, once you start making custom magic items with soulstones, you are UNSTOPPABLE.

I used to enjoy wandering the cities in Ragnarok Online. If you don't know about it, it has VERY basic (I'd say 20% more than Diablo 1) gameplay, but as you walk a crowded marketplace, you can literally have a couple hundred people on your screen at a time. As with any MMO there are plenty of "HEAL PLZ" types, but you see them less and less as you level up, and generally they're just ignored as some kind of lazy vagrant class. XD
