    Every other rpg game I play consists of fights that are longer than 10 seconds. Heck even FPS have longer fights.
    1) If you've played an FPS where it typically takes more than 10 seconds to kill someone, you're either really terrible at the game or it's the slowest FPS game in the known universe.
    2) You've clearly never played Diablo, Diablo II, Diablo III, WoW, DDO, MapleStory, Vindictus, LOTRO, or just about every other major MMO I can think of, all of which have fights with mooks (common enemies) routinely lasting 10-20 seconds. In many of the games I listed, even one-shots are quite common. In MapleStory in particular, if it takes you 10 seconds or more to kill something, it's taking too long and you shouldn't be fighting that mob.

    So yeah about a minute per battle
    Too long for regular enemies. You can achieve fights with everything you described in 30 seconds or maybe even less. Granted, that would still be an increase in fight duration for some of the stronger characters in the game. but for the average player, fighting an appropriate strength enemy already takes a lot more than the "10-20 second" numbers that have been thrown around in this thread. I'm really seeing even less of a problem with fight duration as this thread goes on.

    Subjective opinion is subjective. All of those are popular, well-known games and tend to have short fight times. Throwing out stupid, blanket statements like yours doesn't change the fact that this isn't an unusual occurance and since you didn't address your FPS comment, shows me that you are talking out your behind.

    Also, rude and sarcastic post is rude and sarcastic. You have a history of this sort of behavior on the forums and it's no surprise why nobody takes you seriously.

    Ok my fps comment. There's a group of enemies it normaly takes a few minutes to kill them all if not longer.

    Just because something is popular doesn't mean it's good. Take chocolate for instance, it's popular but it makes me gag from smelling it. Everything is an opinion.

    Wait popular usually mean its good. I think you meant to say just because i don't like it doesn't mean its bad. fact of the matter is if a game is popular it means alot of people like it. Longer fight are pointless and if you think this game isnt as repetitive as the games Alhanelem listed than your right, its even more repetitive but so are all games eventually so why would you even try to use that as a point. FYI tryin to make a bootleg Poll on the forums is as about as accurate as a naked blm on garuda.
