25% more chance that I will.
How do you decide to buy an RPG?reviews,word of mouth, forums?
Reviews/Word of Mouth
Do you cheat/ use hacks/editors?
No
Do you use walk throughs?
In desperate situations or if I visit a forum and realize I missed some cool stuff such as secrets and or quests.
Do you download the latest patch before you start a game?
Always
Do you prefer single character or party?
Party
Do you prefer single player or multiplayer?
If I have internet connection and I don't have to subscribe (pay for online use of game) to the game online then multiplayer, but in the most likely event Single Player. My answer is Multiplayer.
This is SpArTa!! oh im sorry, I must have took a wrong turn..somewhere...(runs away)

Will you buy an RPG just by the fact that it is an RPG? No. But being a RPG increases the probability that I will buy it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> How do you decide to buy an RPG?reviews,word of mouth, forums? Mostly word of mouth, sometimes even just walking through the shop, look at the boxes and ask the dealer (well, only in two special shops where I know those who sell there). Do you cheat/ use hacks/editors? Never, at least never in the first go through. Later perhaps to see what else is possible. Do you use walk throughs? No. And if I get stuck completely I try finding resources (e.g. something like this board here) where I can post specific questions. Do you download the latest patch before you start a game? When I find it: Yes. Do you prefer single character or party? Depends on the game and the layout. Both things are interesting. Do you prefer single player or multipalyer? Single player. For multiplayer, I prefer Pen&Paper

How do you decide to buy an RPG?reviews,word of mouth, forums?
I look into the manual, before i buy the game
Do you cheat/ use hacks/editors?
Nope i don't
Do you use walk throughs?
Nope, to easy
Do you download the latest patch before you start a game?
I alway's check on the internet before i start to play

Depends on the game, if it's in 3d (like might and magic or thunderscape) i do,
But when it is in 2d like divinty or Revenant, not
Do you prefer single player or multipalyer?
I think i will go for the singleplay, (but it would be great to play Morrowind online!!!)

I have been frozen in my seat on many occasions not wanting to move my mouse for fear of what might happen next, I’ve heard sounds and voices so clear that I was becoming unsure if they were actually coming from the speakers

Will you buy an RPG just by the fact that it is an RPG?
No. Diablo series is tagged as RPGs, and so is Dungeon Siege. That does not make them anything more than action games with stats and levels.
How do you decide to buy an RPG?reviews,word of mouth, forums?
I mostly buy them on a whim. This is how I picked up PS:T and DD.
Do you cheat/ use hacks/editors?
Yes, because there are occasions when bugs occur and some of your items go poof, or a quest is not solvable, etc.
Do you use walk throughs?
Only when I have to.
Do you download the latest patch before you start a game?
Yes.
Do you prefer single character or party?
Both have their appeals. Single character is a bit lonely, though, and a party offers more tactical creativity. (Bar Dungeon Siege, mind you. I've never played a more mindless piece of horse manure. Dungeon Sige makes Diablo 2 look good.)
Do you prefer single player or multipalyer?
I'm anti-social, and have stomached all the multiplayer I want to from things like EQ. Besides, I don't work well with other people.

Will you buy an RPG just by the fact that it is an RPG? [color:"red"]NO, but it does increase the chances of buying [/color] How do you decide to buy an RPG?reviews,word of mouth, forums? [color:"red"]Reviews tops the list, then Forums, demos & word of mouth [/color] Do you cheat/ use hacks/editors? [color:"red"]NO, only as a last resort if completely stuck, or on the second time through [/color] Do you use walk throughs?

[color:"red"]Single player, mulit-player oever the net if it cost nothing [/color] [color:"red"]Most people like to know a little about a game other than the fact that it's an RPG and this is found out through game reviews and forums. It is great to see that people do not use cheats/hacks and try to play the game without outside help for the most part. There are times when one does need some help and can find it on a forum for the game. Single player has both advatages and disadvantages or a party and vise-versa, but it seems single player is the most choosen. Single player beats out multi-player unless it is for free, (free? what's that). My hope for these questions is that Larian Studios will see them and take them into consideration in there next game after RiftRunner. Thanks everyone for you input. I am glad to see that I am not the only one that shops and plays RPG this way.

Will you buy an RPG just by the fact that it is an RPG? Nope. How do you decide to buy an RPG?reviews,word of mouth, forums? Word of mouth from forums mostly. Do you cheat/ use hacks/editors? Nope. Do you use walk throughs? Only when I get truly stuck. Do you download the latest patch before you start a game? Yup. Do you prefer single character or party? Depends. I think party play gives greater versatility though. Do you prefer single player or multipalyer? Single most of the time. I will play with my friends, helping each other out can be very good fun. Multiplayer internet games should have a feature where BOTH people agree before dueling IMO. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
