[General Discussion] VG Trivia!

1. Name five RPGs with female protagonists.
2. Name three RPGs in which five characters can be controlled in battle. (As in, five is the limit. RPGs that allow more than five will not be counted. :P)

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The three RPGs I was thinking of with five controllable characters in battle were: Final Fantasy IV, Lunar, and Lunar 2, by the way. Didn't think about Final Fantasy Tactics.

Another RPG in which you have to split up to advance through the dungeon is Final Fantasy VIII, in the final one. FFVI was the first to come to mind, though.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

There's also the fact that you can recruit Cloud in Final Fantasy Tactics. And a number of other characters. I dunno if that counts, since it's not technically another "series," but yeah.

How ya doing, buddy?

Ogre Battle 64 has Virtue and Bane instead of Holy and Evil, if that counts.

4. Name 3 RPG games where you need to buy ammuntion to use ranged weapons. (i.e. arrows)

5. Name 3 Strategy RPGs special characters that you fight more than once.

That should get us started.

3. Empire Earth has food, stone, iron, gold, and whatnot. I can't quite remember, but it's more than three.

4. A huge amount. Final Fantasy IV, Diablo II, and Baldur's Gate are a few examples.

5. In Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, there's the Black Knight. You have the option to fight him more than once, anyway...

27. That's an oddly phrased question. An ultimate attack that does exactly the same amount of damage a normal attack is capable of doing? Usually, normal attacks have a range of damage they're capable of inflicting. How can an ultimate attack deal exactly a "range" of damage? I guess it would make sense if both attacks did the same range of damage, but I dunno.

28. Another odd question. Any character in Fire Emblem, for starters. Units are allowed to carry five items of any type, so you can carry three weapons if you want.

3. Name three RPGs that require (or allow) some form of timed hits in battle.
4. Name two games that allow you to unlock game content with currency earned ingame.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I was thinking more along the lines of traditional turn-based RPGs, but those work too.

5. Name two strategy games in which it is necessary to capture or liberate enemy towns/strongholds.

How ya doing, buddy?

Advance Wars was one of the games I had in mind, but Soul Calibur III isn't a strategy game. (I'm guessing it has something similar to Soul Calibur II's Weapon Master mode?)

FELIPE NO

It's not a strategy game as such, but superficially, it appears as one. Basically, you have a team of up to five (or something) men, and you move them around a map (there are a limited number of routes, but whatever).
The enemy also has an army, and basically wants to destroy all of your guys/strongholds.

So you have to sort of move around and kill stuff, but in an encounter, you can choose to fight it in the normal engine.

I wouldn't accept it as a valid answer though. ><;;

Oh, that's neat. I need to play SCIII one of these days.

Warcraft III, I believe. Other than that, I dunno.

Indeed. You're that Mithos, eh?

6. Name five Diablo clones.
7. Name two games that include a Tetris-like minigame.

41) Name a grid-based strategy RPG with treasure chests.

Final Fantasy Tactics. They appear sometimes when enemies' corpses disappear.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Does Starcraft count? You can change the music with the radio free zerg code.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Uh, also.. Maximum Carnage? That game where you could play as Spider-Man or Venom? I believe it had a red cartridge.

SM61) Bo Rai'Cho from Mortal Kombat: Deception uses "Sumo" as his primary fighting style.

How ya doing, buddy?

Super Mario Bros. 2 is one of them.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Perhaps you should add it? Wikipedia is freely edited, you know.

8. Name three RPGs in which there is an option to be fully healed after every battle.

FELIPE NO

I probably should have excluded tactical RPGs from that question. I was thinking more along the lines of Chrono Cross (it allows you to automatically be healed based on Elements you have equipped and items you have in stock) and Tales of Symphonia with the cooking thing.
