RPG Games: What's good about them?

They're all suck to me, Andy.
My daughter loves them, I like simple FPS and racing games.
I don't wanna think when I'm playing video games, and I could jut never get beside the D&D stuff, either.

I'm a big fan of side scrollers (Super Mario type games) but I also am a major Zelda fan as well. Many people put Zelda and FF games in the same category but Zelda has more action during the fighting sequences, not just attack, magic, defend, run, and whatever else RPG games have (if that makes any sense).

I'm not here to attack RPG games such as FF games, I'm asking a serious question b/c I want to get into them but can't.
