I own more RPGs than anything; Fable, Oblivion, Fallout, Lost Odyssey, Eternal Sonata.
But i'm warming to the game now. For everything it does wrong, like graphical glitches and things getting stuck in terrain, it does something awesome like having a robot perform surgery on somebody who had a sprained toe to amputate the foot.

People are social creatures, so it makes sense that there's a lot of people who prefer multi-player (or at least co-op).
A lack of multiplayer or co-op in a console game is kind of a turn off for me. There's obviously exceptions, but I'm usually more willing to buy a title if it has multiplayer.
I'd like to see more racing, RPG, and adventure games personally. Having an entire environment to explore is almost never a bad decision.

Brawl's online multiplayer sucked, but it was definately better than having none at all. Regular multiplayer is still great though.
Still, as long as the single player mode doesn't take a hit (if that's what the game is focused on), then I don't realy mind if the multiplayer is tacked on or not. At least as long as it's somewhat bearable.
Anyway, I'm on the final map for Orange Star in the hard campaign. My response to it is "HOLY SHI- *defeated*"

My first level is sort of done, but I want to add more to it because atm it's very generic.
I started on a second level which takes place in a cave. I made a fully functional pickup truck for this level. It has a tailgate that you can open and close via a lever on the truck. The gimmick to this level are puzzles involving carrying stuff on the truck and clearing paths to get the truck from point A to point B. Just finished the first puzzle which has you searching for a lever to activate an elevator to bring the truck up a cliff. =)

The weight thing in Fallout was something I also had an issue with. Since you can't fast travel while over encumbered, you can't load up and sell everything back at Megaton. And you can't really carry much at all at the beggining of the game unless you point points into Strength.

Mother 3 so far has been a pretty unique RPG. You can earn money by fighting, but to get it, you have to talk to a frog (which is also how you save) to withdrawl your money. However, you can also obtain money instantly by doing jobs. So far, I've only come across one place where you can work, and there's only one job there. I'm suspecting that the more you work there, the higher your wages get (starts out at 200DP per job), but I've done the job 4 times already. Maybe 5 is the lucky number.
Anyway, currently climbing a tower with some pretty tough baddies. Wish there were more save points.
